It's almost here. Halloween is almost here. With it will come more candy and sugar than anyone can handle. If you didn't see John Oliver's timely take down of the sugar industry on Last Week Tonight this past Sunday, do yourself a favor.
The problem is, if you have ever been a child (and I think we've all been there) you know that the houses who try to give out a healthy alternative are despised, and god forbid you as a parent try to limit your child's candy haul.
Enter the Halloween Candy Buyback. Dentists and orthodontists across the country participate buy offering $1 for every pound of Halloween candy (which is terrifying in and of itself if you ask me!). This helps kids to feel like they aren't doing all that hard work for nothing, and the candy then gets donated to Operation Gratitude to be sent overseas in care packages to US soldiers.
If you know some kids who will be trick r treating this Halloween, and bringing in a big haul, consider this! Read more and find a zip-code locator for participating offices near you via NPR.
