'Tis the season of candy!


Since there will be lots of candy being passed out in the coming week. I thought I'd give moms a chance to share their favorite allergy friendly candy. [and candy alternatives] Please post your ideas... and leave me "some love".

Here is a great list to start you off from Allergy Moms. They list 99 potentially safe candies that you can pass out on Halloween.

Remember to read every label. Some candies utilize different recipes for different sizes and flavors.

If you can handle corn syrup... an inexpensive alternative is those little packets of "fruit snacks". Or for a little more money you can go organic and all fruit and choose the new fruit leathers/snack alternatives.

One friend on an adoption forum I'm on suggested giving out those little glow sticks instead of candy. [Then you might even save some money on those nice dentist bills also!]
