Halloween is Mister, Do It With Me, Not With Momhands-down one of the best holidays, especially for kids.

The holiday is centered around dressing up, using your imagination and being a little weird. On top of that, there's the best part: unlimited candy.

But if you're planning on passing out candy to hardworking trick-or-treaters this year, please avoid the following at all costs. Your young neighbors will be extremely grateful.

Necco Wafers have been around since 1847, which was probably an excellent candy in the year 1847. They taste like chalk, and anyone who defends these candies is either 150 years old or enjoys licking chalkboards.

Similar to Necco Wafers, Smarties have a distinct chalky texture that should never, ever go inside your mouth unless you're eating Tums.

3. Candy Buttons

Unsurprisingly, these pieces of sugar attached to paper are actually made by Necco Wafers. While the candy is passable, it's basically glued to a piece of paper, which is impossible to completely detach.
