U can but I wouldn't let my kids eat anyone's baked goods unless I knee the person myself or knew a neighbor handing them out to the children. I have heard stories about goods with razors in them or apples and it cut people's mouth in Halloween just people being plain weird lol
In the past acceptable it would be however with everything going on nowadays I wouldn’t trust it. On the flip side if you want to handout those baked goods to people you know I’m sure they would take them.
I don't think it is trashy... but since you don't know the person you kind of have to throw it away.. LOL Luckily I don't trick or treat with my kids I just have a scary movie night with popcorn and many candies and snacks..
It is not safe to eat. Everything must be bought at a store and packaged by the company they were made. Even then you have to psyphen through it to make sure nothing bad got in the mix.
Eh, I'd be more worried about the allergens and that most won't think about making labels to detail the ingredients. It's also a cheaper alternative for some to actually be able to partake, so if anything, judging those who choose to do so can be seen as more trashy.
I think it's mostly an old person thing to do. Short on cash long on time and you end up with good intentions that don't fit the modern world. I'd throw them out as well.
When I was a kid, a neighbor woman had chocolate chip cookies and cider that she handed out to all the kids trick-or-treating. It was one of the highlights.

Such a positive question. I'm glad I don't live in the USA. It seems full of unfriendly, hateful people.
Trick or Treat is made for giving something nice to the kids, not homemade baked goods that could be laced with weed or some other illegal drugs, I think candy is the best to give out to trick or treaters.
Most parents are going to throw them away. The only way I would suggest you make them is if you’re inviting friends/family over for a little Halloween party.
But giving them out to stranger’s kids. They’re gonna throw them away
I’ve always questioned it. There’s already a lot of alertness around wrapped candy on Halloween so to hand out baked goods seems a little absentminded. I think it’s more acceptable at a party of some sort but not to trick or treaters.
Sure it is. No one's forcing you take it, let alone eat it. If someone offered me some, I would take it just to not be rude, then just not eat it. There's this creepy couple that always brings homemade goods to my workplace, I just put them in the fridge for the weekened shift
@KostasKouvalis not gonna lie when I was a kid I used to take the food and throw it away 😅. One time my teacher caught me and thrashed me for throwing away the food I didn't like. Ahh good times.
Nowadays my tenants make food for me on the farm. And unlike the prude people here it turns out that food is way better than the city food 🤣. I have not gotten any more sick from eating village food than the City food. Things are way better than in the cities and restaurants
I would avoid it. Only to friends. Besides the more nefarious things, you could also inadvertently trigger someone's allergies or give something like gluten to someone with Celiac's
Happens all the time at the places I've lived. Military bases bring together a lot of different people so some think this is acceptable if they were from a small town
I don't think it would be a good idea to hand out homemade treats unless you know the kids personally. They would probably toss them in the garbage because they don't know what you could have put in them.

Can't go wrong with Snickers, Reece's, M&Ms, etc

- also like purplepoppy says, if your neighbourhood is that fucking bad, why you trick or treating there?

Yes definitely a older person thing

Not all places are like that. It's depends on state and town

If my kids came home with them I'd throw them out. God only knows what's in them
Exactly

You sound like all the moms in my neighborhood when I was a kid. 😂😂

Yeah I always take them but throw them out later. Definitely not gonna be rude to them. And good idea just leaving it in the fridge for others

I'm not sure if it's trashy, but as someone with severe food allergies, it's definitely dangerous. I wouldn't recommend it.
Sure, But parents May Toss Them away Because They may Not Trust What is in Them. I Have Handed Out Before Devil Dogs. xxoo
I would avoid it. Only to friends. Besides the more nefarious things, you could also inadvertently trigger someone's allergies or give something like gluten to someone with Celiac's
Nah, I'm surprised I haven't seen this while out with the kids before.

In the south, it’s a rule to never eat unpackaged candy, it’s right up there with “don’t run with scissors”
