Hard as it is to believe, Halloween is right around the corner!  I'm always on the lookout for unique treats to pass out to the trick-or-treaters who stop by our apartment on October 31st, so I was thrilled to learn that one of my favorite candy brands, UNREAL, is offering special family-sized bags just in time for Halloween.  If you don't know about UNREAL, you are truly missing out.  Created by a candy-loving, 15-year-old boy, UNREAL delivers candy with less sugar, more protein and more fiber.  Unlike typical candy bars, UNREAL candies are devoid of any nasty ingredients such as corn syrup, hydrogenated oil, artificial flavors, GMOs or synthetic colors.  Instead, UNREAL's tasty treats are made with responsibly sourced ingredients, including traceable cacao beans from Ghana and Ecuador, 100% sustainable and organic Palm Kernel Oil, dairy from free-range cows pasture raised without antibiotics or added hormones, all natural origin colors derived from plants like beets and red cabbage, 30% less sugar, 60% more protein and 250% more fiber than ordinary candy.

UNREAL candies come in five tasty varieties, including Candy Coated Chocolates, Candy Coated Chocolate with Peanuts, Chocolate Caramel Nougat Bar, Chocolate Caramel Peanut Nougat Bar, and Peanut Butter Cups.  I recently had an opportunity to sample each of UNREAL's better-for-you candies (I know, the sacrifices I make in the name of research are endless), and I am pleased to report that they were all delicious.  In fact, if you make the very wise decision to hand out UNREAL candy on Halloween, I'm quite certain you'll be the apartment to which all the trick-or-treaters return several times over in different costumes in an attempt to bolster their candy stash.  And you'll feel good about handing out UNREAL candies, since they are free of all the yucky stuff found in typical candy bars.  And they won't break the bank either, since UNREAL candies are offered at the same price as typical candy bars (prices range from $.89 to $1.29 for individual bars and $4.99 for the family-sized bags).  For more information, visit www.getunreal.com.
