POLL: What's Your Favorite Halloween Candy?

Take the Patch Poll: What's Your Favorite Halloween Candy?

I've always considered Halloween one of my favorite times of the year. As a child it gave me a chance to play make believe. From being Madonna's material girl to partying it up as a sexy devil in my 20s, Halloween has always brought me good times and an excuse to dress up and buy things I'd never imagine owning. Like a pair of leopard ears, fangs and lest I forget, more gold jewelry (a la Cleopatra) than Mr. T could ever imagine.

But as I've transitioned into my 30s, things have changed. Yes, I still thoroughly enjoy playing dress up, but now I also find myself digging into my child's loot bag to see what's good for the taking. 

I confess, I've become a Halloween treat freak and I steal candy from my daughter's treat bag, way too much in fact. And if you don't believe me, I have the thighs and empty candy wrappers to prove it.
