Here at the campgrounds we celebrate Halloween on 3 weekends to let all our campers get in on it.

Well, yesterday one of the kids asked if I wanted a piece of his load of candy he trick or treated.
He handed me a wrap in plastic "false teeth" made of hard sugar. On the back was "Made In China".
WTF??????

candies made in China for Halloween!!!

I threw it away.

We are doomed, I tell you...............

    At least it was made of sugar. Have them made in America and you'll get corn sweetner.

    My longtime favorite-Brachs candy corn has been made in Mexico for some time. It hurts to see that. Sure I emailed the company to bring it back to the USA but, you know how that works.

    Ya! and their jelly beans (which used to be my favorite) are also made in Mexico! This has forced my teeth to become healthier if you like to look at things that piss you off on a positive note! :)

    I personally would not feed my DOG or CAT anything that was made in China. I even stay away from Smithfield Pork products!

    What isn't? I would not eat it either, but I almost never eat candy.

    pull all the freebie benefits of local state and federal programs except those to the few truly needing assistance and get back to a work or go hungry ...damn few out there deserve CEO pay scale for most jobs and if we made all the stuff here that is now made in china a lot of people would be busy...way back second year of college the only job i could find in that town was 75cts an hour and glad to get it..it helped pay the rent ... and i went up from there....
