Midgees

Did anybody else use to sort their Halloween candy? You know, like all the skinny tootsie rolls in one pile, all the midgees in a different pile, then the tootsie roll bars in a separate pile? Suckers and lollipops went together, as did Dots and Now "n" Laters. There was a sacred pile of the really good stuff - like Kit Kats or Three Musketeers. Then there was the pile of those candies that are nougaty and wrapped in orange or black wax paper, meh. And believe it or not, I would have traded you all of my Reece's Peanut Butter Cups for your Junior Mints. Mmmmm. I miss trick-or-treating.

But anyway...it's no secret that I love Hungry Girl. In case you don't subscribe to her emails, I have done my good deed for the Halloween season and posted the calorie count for all your favorite trick-or-treat goodies. (And if you have any leftover Tootsie Roll Midgees, send them my way!)

No stats on the back of your bite-sized Halloween goodies? Don't stress! Check out our new HUGE guide to the calorie counts and fat contents of your favorite candies, and then forward this to all your hungry pals!

Chocolate 101: Size Matters! Before you chew, know the difference between Snack Size, Fun Size, and Miniatures... Miniatures/Minis are the square-shaped morsels -- those babies are each about a quarter-ounce in weight. A Snack Size or Fun Size chocolate treat weighs in at a little more than a half-ounce and is usually about 2 inches long. Not all size-categorized treats are created equal. We've found seemingly identical Fun Size bars on shelves -- same brand, same flavor -- with varying weights and calorie counts. If you want to be extra-careful, we recommend going by the higher set of stats listed below.
