When someone says the words “healthy” and “Halloween” in the same sentence, you think they’re playing a sick joke. Because what is the first thing that comes to mind when you hear these words? It’s probably:
- The old woman on the street who handed out raisins or apples to trick-or-treaters.
- That sad, sugar-free chocolate that tastes like paper.
- Eating celery sticks in the corner of the costume party because you’re on a diet. Meanwhile, everyone else goes for seconds of the pumpkin cheesecake.
None of these options scream ‘Halloween” or “fun” to us.
