Passing our ramen for Halloween

(Anonymous) 2025-10-30 02:03 am (UTC)(link)
I'm thinking of passing our ramen for Halloween. I will also have candy. Should I give kids both, let them choose, give the ramen to the parents (if with them), or not give out ramen?

Honestly, I feel like people giving out things that aren't candy (or maybe a toy or something else kids might like) is a little weird. Trick or treating is about kids. Sure, adults can do it and have fun too. But the focus is kids. If you don't want to give out something kids would like, maybe just don't give anything out?

I said I was also giving out candy? This is additional for people who may be losing SNAP benefits on Saturday.

You are right. I'm sorry. I was not feeling well last night and really over exhausted, sorry for taking it out on you.

Wait a sec are you under the impression that kids don't love ramen???

I loved instant ramen when I was a kid. (And still do, tbh.) My mother wouldn't let us eat it often because she felt it was unhealthy. I don't know if I would've chosen it over say, chocolate (because I loved chocolate and also wasn't allowed sweets) but I certainly wouldn't have minded getting it.

Besides, ayrt said they had candy and were open to offering candy, so it's not an either/or thing. Your last comment seems unnecessarily snippy.

I’m pro giving out things other than standard candy in addition the stuff people expect. Ramen is a new one for me, but while it’s a little weird, I don’t think that’s bad and I don’t see any harm.

Whether or not this is a success is just too dependent upon your audience, but I think if you have both on hand, giving them a choice is pretty good? You could also consider other shelf-stable snack items like sandwich crackers.

I think anything that is individually sealed + that kids would like is fine.
I'd love to have got a random collection of ramen as a kid!

Include potatoes as an option. Kids love potatoes.

We don't use ramen for instant noodles, so I had such a great vision of a person giving kids candy and bowls of steaming ramen :D

Ramen is a weird choice.

But if you want to pass out a variety of options just put it all out. Don't hand it to the parnets or kids, just put the option out there for them to choose.

Sounds great to me. Not all kids would like it, but I liked ramen as a kid and it's a decent quick dinner for those struggling.
