Better and Worse Halloween Candy

First EVERYTHING IN MODERATION and ALL FOODS FIT! However, when it comes to treats there are some that may be a better choice than others. 

BETTER: Starburst Original Fruit Chews

Starburst, like many 'fat-free' products, is loaded with sugar. But, you can enjoy a whole nine pieces for less calories and fat.

9 pieces = 150 calories; 0 fat; 22 g sugar

At 59 calories per serving size, or three lollipops, the Dum Dum is a low-caloric sugary treat you can enjoy for hours.

1 serving size or 3 lollipops = 59 calories; 0 fat; 11 g sugar

If you don't bite it down in the middle, the Tootsie Roll takes a long time to eat, so make it last!

6 Tootsie Rolls (40 g) = 140 calories (30 calories from fat); 3 g total fat; 19 g sugar

Candy corn is a sugar bomb with salt. But you can have a large handful, or 26 pieces, for 150 calories.

26 pieces = 150 calories; 0 fat; 28 g sugar

If you need it — chocolate that is — this minty chocolate treat scores better in the fat, sugar and calories category than most other chocolate bars.

1 mini patty = 50 calories; 1g fat; 9g sugar

At 105 calories per cup, 50 of them from fat, you get to enjoy the milk chocolate with all the calories, plus calories from fat.

1 cup = 105 calories (40 calories from fat); 6.5 g total fat; 10.5 g sugar

Dark chocolate and coconut — well then Mounds must be healthy! Not so fast. With the first ingredient being corn syrup and with 80 calories, half of them being from fat, even the snack size Mounds is quite the guilty pleasure.

1 bar = 80 calories (40 calories from fat); 4.5 g total fat; 7 g sugar

Don't be fooled by the almonds in the Almond bar. At 80 calories per snack size bar, half of them from fat, the coconut and almonds add mostly calories to your Almond Joy. Unfortunately, the almond isn't enough to redeem this candy.

1 bar = 80 calories; 40 calories from fat (4.5 g total fat); 8 g sugar

Three pieces (42 g) of this crunchy treat will set you back 210 calories, 90 calories from fat, which makes it one of the higher caloric bars and also higher in fat.

3 pieces (42 g) = 210 calories; 90 calories from fat (11 g total fat); 21 g sugar
