Top 10 "Healthiest" Halloween Candy

Halloween is here! And I've been sweatin' to the 80's, 90's, and "now" at the gym all week in anticipation to get my trick-or-treat on! Okay...I didn't go that overboard on the stairclimber because I don't plan on going overboard on the sweets, either. But, prepping for the possibility of eating outside of your nutrition plan is fine in moderation. And when I say moderation, I mean once a quarter!

If you're a sweet-lover this time of year, it also doesn't hurt to figure out what candy will do the least damage if eating it is inevitable in the near future. So, I did a little research and put together a list of the top 10 candies that aren't the worst thing you could eat on the goulish night. And don't worry... it's candy that you'll actually eat -- not those nasty circus peanuts!

(Note: This list is based on macro-nutrient amounts. The lower choices have higher sugar and less calories, but the higher choices having more protein.)
