candy

We go way back with Peter Geiger, editor of the Farmers' Almanac. Many years ago, he started giving out a secret pass code that would score kids more "big" candy. Now, he gives out so much that he has a candy delivery truck on standby for Halloween...

It all started because Jon used the phrase, "bar none," on the Moose Morning Show. First thing I thought of was the Hershey candy bar, Bar None. So it got us thinking about old candy you can't find anymore.

We're honored that the Moose Morning Show is the radio show that Peter Geiger from the Farmers' Almanac looks forward to all year long. It's the the show that, for many years, he's used to get the word out about the latest edition of his beloved almanac. It's also the morning he tells the world his secret pass code, which holds magic for anyone who loves candy!

Friday morning, Farmers' Almanac editor, Peter Geiger, will join us for our annual Halloween get-together, which is at least 16-years-old. Pete is a great guy and a lot of fun. He's also very generous. On Halloween night, if you go to his home on Brentwood Avenue in Lewiston, you'll get a KING SIZE candy bar. If you know the secret pass code (ONLY revealed on 92 Moose), you'll get THREE KING SIZE

Are you like me and buy Halloween candy and end up eating it before the 31st? I’m sure you are to a degree. After you’ve opened the bag to have one, the whole bag disappears within a day or so. Once it’s gone, then you have to go out and buy more just for ‘Trick or Treaters."

Earlier today, me and Jon were craving chocolate. Well, you see it's not really our fault. We're like Pavlov's dogs. There's a 'Secret Santa' at our office who every day is filling our individual stockings on the station Christmas tree (yes, I said, Christmas tree) with treats.

Judy Pancoast, a Waterville High School grad and, now, internationally known children's songwriter and performer, joined us last Saturday evening at the Augusta tree lighting.

The internet exploded this week with news that a Fargo woman was going to hand out letters instead of candy to kids she deemed as "moderately obese," but is it all just a hoax?

Peter Geiger is a good man! He's the editor of the Farmers' Almanac, a Philomath (lover of learning) and a very intelligent and kind individual. Oh, and in case you didn't know, he also LOVES Halloween!

This year, some children in Fargo, North Dakota may get a bigger trick than treat when hitting the streets for trick-or-treating. That's because a woman in the city has decided to take a stand against childhood obesity, which on its face it's a noble effort. However, the method in which she is doing it is turning heads.

Well, well, well. Love it or hate it, everyone has a feeling about candy corn. Me? I can take it or leave it. I'd probably like it more if I could butter it and eat it off the cob, bun no can do....

We've previously shared with you videos of poor kids making adorably sour faces while tasting the deceptively delicious candy Warheads. These kids are expecting something sweet, and what they get is punch of sour right in the face.

J.R.R. Tolkien published 'The Hobbit' in 1938 and for decades fans have obsessed over Middle-Earth. Here are just a few highlights of "Hobbit fever" throughout pop culture.

What does a nine-year-old do with $4,000? Buy candy. A lot of candy.

Whether you're trick-or-treating or preparing for trick-or-treaters, Halloween leaves most folks with an abundance of candy. While it can be difficult to resist any of these tooth-decay-promoting treats, some candy is better than others. According to a survey from Public Policy Polling of 1,200 adults chocolate bars are the Halloween sweet of choice for an overwhelming 62 percent.

There’s one single treat in the history of all candy deliciousness that makes us feel so torn. Candy corn -- we hate to love it and love to hate it. How is it possible it can taste so bad, yet be so irresistible? It’s a Halloween trick AND treat. (See what we did there?)
