Raisins for Halloween! RAISINS??!?!?!

Raisins!

Boxes of raisins you know the red box with the girl on it, Sunsweet raisins or whatever the brand is called.

I was looking at an old vintage ad for raisins suggesting that "This Halloween give out boxes of delicious Sunsweet raisins, the kids will love love love you" ...you get the picture. Anyway I REMEMBER some sick puppies actually doing this, giving out little boxes of raisins to trick or treaters. So kids are coming home with huge bags full of mostly candy...and BOXES OF RAISINS. And I swear to God none of those raisins were ever eaten by anyone, they were left alone while the chocolate was consumed and the bubblegum chewed. They would go stale and eventually would get chucked. Anyone remember this? Is it just me because I'm a fogey?
