Whoever said “bigger is better” obviously didn’t know the joy of fun-sized candy bars. Halloween is coming, people, which means spooky vibes, slutty costumes, and ALL THE TINY CANDY!
Tiny candy has big heart. It doesn’t judge you when it sees your big head peering into the candy bag, shuffling about all the suckers and fruit snacks to get into that true chocolate deliciousness. Tiny candy is like therapy that fits in your pocket. Tiny candy tastes best when bargained from strangers in the dead of night. Tiny candy is most delicious when stolen.
Halloween is such an amazing time of year, but a lot of the hype is because of the FREE CANDY. When it comes to candy bars, most of the year I’m a king size bitch. However, once spooky season hits, I’d much rather gorge myself with fistful after fistful of delicious mini bars. It’s tradition.
In recent years they have started to sell smaller sized candy bars year-round in very boring packaging. However, these don’t have the same pull as the once-a-year special of Halloween treats. It’s a seasonal thing, and really that candy just doesn’t taste the same unless it was born of child labor and parental thievery.
