You can’t walk into most grocery stores or drug stores these days without coming face-to-face with candy. It’s Halloween season so most places are stocked up on candy to sell to people to give to the little trick-or-treats on Halloween night.
I both love and loathe this time of year. I LOVE candy, but I also loathe the temptation of having all that candy around. I literally have to buy candy at the last minute otherwise my family – or myself – will eat half the bag (if not the entire bag!) before Halloween night. I intentionally try and buy candy we DON’T like to avoid that temptation. But it’s hard. Candy is so yummy. 🙂
If you are still looking for Halloween treats you should check out the Halloween candies from MIKE AND IKE.

The individual bags are ideal for trick-or-treating. Each bag holds just enough candy to satisfy your sweet tooth. The flavors are great too. I like the flavors in the Vampire Variety the best, but both packages are good.
I’ve always been a fan of MIKE AND IKE candies. I have been enjoying them since I was a kid. They have been around since 1940 (I’m not THAT old… but I did enjoy them as a kid). They are from the brand Just Born Quality Confections. They are the same company that bring you other delicious treats including PEEPS®, HOT TAMALES®, MIKE AND IKE® and GOLDENBERG’S® PEANUT CHEWS®. I love all of these candies.
All Just Born candies are made in the U.S.A.
Look for MIKE AND IKE and other Just Born Quality Confections at a retail store near you.

My favorite Halloween candy is Hershey’s Special Dark miniatures, because my favorite candy is dark chocolate. Looking at the flavors in the Mike and Ike Vampire Variety pack and the Mike and Ike Mummy’s Mix I would probably like the flavors in the Vampire Variety much better. Thank you for sharing this review.

I saw some but by time I got to the store again to get some, they are now stocking Christmas and got rid of a lot of the Halloween. 🙁 see if we get some during trick or treating.
