Candy is a toxic cocktail of sugar, artificial flavorings, and refined corn syrup. You're essentially injecting a spoonful of empty calories into your body, with no nutritional value to show for it. It's a manipulative concoction designed to hook you, not nourish you.
Why trash
Pure sugar, artificial colors, and flavors. Your great-grandmother wouldn't recognize this as food.
Try instead
Dried apricots, dates, or fresh berries
