Halloween night, I go through the candy and throw away anything that looks suspicious. The inspected candy goes into community candy bowls, a chocolate bowl or a not chocolate bowl. Some of the kiddos and I don't like how the fruity candy infuses it's taste into the chocolate. Anyway...
So here's my secret - don't tell! When they go to school, I take out candy for their stockings and hide it in the freezer until Christmas eve. Right now mine is quadruple bagged in some inconspicuous, frozen place. Not only does it cut down on the candy available now, it saves me money in December. The kids have never missed it because I only pull the candies there were a lot of like, Snickers, Twix, etc.
I still have a ton of candy, maybe I should hide some more?

Ooooh, you're a clever and sneaky woman, aren't you? ;) I totally love the idea of separating the candy into fruity and non-fruity, too. I ate a Snickers that was a little off tasting yesterday, and then had to eat another for comparison, just to be sure...
I'm glad I'm not the only one who can taste the "fruity" chocolate. Some people look at me like I'm crazy!
