BOO!!!

I was diggin' out 'da 'ol Halloween decorations yesterday and found a few
2-1/2# bags of leftover candy from last year... still sealed in the original
packaging...

The Tootsie Rolls are still tender... everything was stored in an
semi-airtight container.

Is it safe to hand out this year? Or should I toss it out?

What could possibly injure a Tootsie Roll? I'd give 'em out.
Cheers!

Aging halloween candy can only be an improvement... even if they're jawbreaker
hard, so what, they're not your little punkinhead's dental bills... heheheheh

It's safe, Ken. The half-life on that stuff approaches that of Thorium.

Curious....does bagged candy usually have a stamped expiration date?
