Like most little kids, my daughter is all about candy … all the time. If we allowed it, there is no doubt in my mind that she would have candy for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. And, I have to be honest in saying, who can blame her? Candy tastes amazing and adults love it too. To be quite honest, I’m not completely convinced that my husband doesn’t supply it as part of every meal when I am out of town traveling for business. I’m seriously considering a nanny cam but that’s a story for another day. The problem is, when it comes to a balanced diet, candy isn’t at the top of the pyramid or part of the plate or whatever contraption they are currently modeling our eating after. It can however be a PART Of a balanced diet. As momma always said, “Everything in moderation, everything!”

Unfortunately, we have reached that time of year where it is nearly impossible to convince my daughter that this is fact and not fiction as candy is EVERYWHERE. We walk into the grocery store and there is a huge display of CANDY. Turn on the television and there is a commercial about CANDY. Go to grandma’s house and the first thing she pulls out and offers to the kids is CANDY. Okay, grandma always offers candy but you get the idea. So what is a parent to do?

If I were my sister I would chuckle, shake my head, and remind my kids that we have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to candy. I swear the chick is healthier than anyone else I know and I am almost convinced that she has some crazy magical powers, that weren’t passed down to me, that she uses on her kids to make them think candy is horrible. I kid, I kid … kinda. Then there is my house where we try to live by the moderation policy and we strive to make better choices about the candy that we are eating. Sure, a chocolate bar or two slip by here and there but overall, thanks to the introduction of YumEarth Organics, we ARE making better choices 95% percent of the time.

Halloween is just a hop, skip, and jump away and this year be will be passing out YumEarth Organics Organic Pops to the neighborhood kids in the hopes of introducing them to a new product that they will love. If you are passing candy this year what sweets or treats will your neighbors encounter?

When my kids were young, I hated bringing them into the store. They're smart. The stores do display candy at a childs eye level and it's everywhere. Back then there wasn't anything like this. I would have felt better about letting them eat some candy.

We love Yum Earth for being organic and allergy friendly!! How amazing!! Their candy is so delicious as well!! I don't feel as guilty as I would giving my son some of the other candy out there filled with dyes and fillers!!

I don't really understand the whole organic candy thing. I don't know how it could be healthy.
