I don't know who started this brilliant idea, but it needs to stop and it needs to stop now!!!  My dog will eat anything, including her own, well, you know, but she scampered away in horror when I offered one of these in place of her favorite treats.

These things are cheap for a reason - you can find candy just as suitable down at the local gravel pit, so don't waste your money!  Better yet, if these were the focus of your efforts this year, just leave your porch light off...

If the name doesn't turn you off, the taste will.  Although not good for eating, these candies have several interesting uses.
 
1) Use them to break the windows of the person who gave them to you.
 
Ok, so they have one use and it's not all that interesting.  I was going to try covering my driveway with them, but the neighbors
started complaining.
