When I was younger, my dad would tell me the Heath bars were adult candy, and I believed him. On Halloween I would always give them to him. I thought they were poisonous to children. I believed this until I was around when I saw my neighbor (who was like, 7 at the time) one. I tried them, and I loved them.
I am 11 now, and my dad still tries to pull it off on Halloween, but I know now that he just wanted them for himself!E
