Is Candy Corn a Vegetable?

Candy Corn has the word corn in it. That means it is healthy, right? How about this Halloween we don't deprive ourselves of all of our favorite spooky treats but rather find a way to build in one or two of our favorites so that Sunday night, after we made it though Trick Or Treating and Halloween parties, we don't sit down to all the leftover candy. We don't have to check it for safety. Come up with a plan. Buy 100 calorie Twix or take two fun size chocolates from the office, and keep them in the fridge for when something chocolaty and sweet sounds good. If we feel we are not supposed to eat a certain food, like candy, we eliminate it and then overindulge when we finally give in to the reality that we never going to give up candy. Nothing is off limits but you can't eat everything you want all the time. It is about balance and planning.
