Not Your Dad’s Laffy Taffy

Tour this selection of religiously-themed Halloween candy at Belief.net.

And I’d be curious to find out:

1. Do you celebrate Halloween at all? Why or why not?

2. If you don’t, do you just ignore it, or do you do something alternative instead?

In the interest of transparency, we do do Halloween at our house, though All Saints is in my children’s estimation actually a lot more fun. Meanwhile, we have friends whose practices regarding this holiday are all over the spectrum. I’m not looking to take issue, just interested.
