What a revealing chant: “Trick or Treat?”. But is Halloween candy really a treat? Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the psychology tied up in junk food. How many times have you heard yourself justify an excessively sugary/fatty food by saying, “I deserve a little treat.” Why is it that we consider something so unhealthy as a reward for our good behaviour or even more strange, for our good eating habits? It’s all a trick, when you think about it.

whose post is this?
your post is so true... last weekend Allie and I devoured a huge bag of candy... it was not my best moment that's for sure.
Are we too old to go trick or treating??
Yes, you are TOO OLD to go trick or treating.
and why does Candy get sucha bad rap? It's only doing its job.
