What are Some Healthy Halloween Treats?
Too often, Halloween means loads of cavity-creating candy and trips to the dentist later. However, there are some healthy Halloween treats that taste good but don’t have hefty fat and sugar content. If you’re greeting Halloween trick-or-treaters, you might try giving things like prepackaged pretzels and popcorn. These snacks are far healthier than candy and sugary treats, and many manufacturers package them in orange and black, with spooky decorations on the bags in recognition of the holiday. You might also try giving out fruit as healthy Halloween treats. However, keep in mind that some parents are leery of allowing their children to consume trick-or-treat snacks that are not manufacturer sealed. Raisins, packages of hot chocolate, juice boxes, and prepackaged cheese and crackers are also good ideas. Individual packages of pumpkin seeds and peanuts also fit the bill as tasty and healthy Halloween treats.
