During my childhood we had a lady down the street who always handed out candied apples. Some years she gave us our choice of candied or caramel apples. All the local kids would sprint to her house first to get an apple before she ran out.
As years went on the news would give reports from the cities 30 miles away of pins, needles and razor blades being put in treats. So parents were warned to not let their kids have apples or candy that may have been opened or tampered with.
So the nice lady cut back on the amount she made and would always do a few for those of us who were close to her.
Since all the local kids loved them so much and this lady had a reputation for giving good treats, I thought I would start doing the same thing.
My question is, what are your thoughts on handing out candied and caramel apples as Halloween treats in todays society?
