Halloween doesn't have to be about candy. The kids and adults usually enjoy thinking up the costumes and we handed out popcorn, apples and dollarama trinkets as we got more conscious of the sugar blues etc.

It is a shame that sweets have become so synonymous with "treats" and that children often feel deprived if they are not given sweets as treats.

But I hear about more and more young parents becoming more and more conscious of how we are what we eat so I have great faith in the shift in consciousness that is going on in many areas of our lives.
