Free Stuff Friday: Halloween Candy! October 10, 2008

Posted by Ashleigh | Permalink | Comments ( 268 ) | TrackBack

It's no secret that I love Halloween. Did you see my zombie costume from last year? It's also well-known that I could eat my weight in candy and sweets. Needless to say, trick-or-treating was a favorite childhood pastime. What could be better then a bunch of free candy?

I will tell you what's better: a bunch of free VEGAN candy! Check out this gorgeous basket from Pangea that we are giving away to THREE lucky mavericks!

Feast your eyes on: VeganSweets Caramels, "Vampire's Lunch" Gummy Candies, Orange Candy Tree lollipops, and an Endangered Species chocolate bar. All these candies are made without mashed-up cow skin, bones, cartilage, or bugs (nothing sweet about those ingredients), and they're not tested on animals (have you heard about Mars?)

It's going to be very hard not to choose myself as a winner . . . but I will resist, so comment below with your favorite vegan candy to win this basket of goodies!

You've got the weekend to enter because this contest ends October 13, 2008 and the three winners will be chosen and notified that same day! (We want to make sure your candy gets to you in time for Halloween!)

Just so you know...by commenting here, you're acknowledging that you've read and agreed to our privacy policy.

Also by commenting, you are agreeing to the following terms and conditions.

Yum yum!

Honestly, I'll eat any candy as long as it's vegan. I mean If it's got sugar in it, I'll eat it.
What kind of candy maker morons test candy on animals?!!

Mmmm...all those treats are making me drool!

My favourite vegan treat just has to be classic dark chocolate, call me boring but nothing beats the intense taste!

endangered species bar!!! totally.. these animals, and orangutans!! will be extinct, its not a may. its a WILL. but we need to stop that, and what better way than, chocolate !?

Nice package. Does anyone know if the candy corn that Jelly Belly makes is vegan? There's no egg whites (yuck!) or honey in them, but I'm a little worried about the "confectioner's glaze". I think it might be made from shellac, aka, dried and ground up insects (double yuck!) Thanks if anyone replies.

Posted by: Megan at October 10, 2008 1:11 PM
                                                               

Mmmm... It all looks so good, especially the Vampire's Lunch. I'm a former gummy bear addict, so it just looks... Wow.

My favorite vegan treat is probably sour patch kids. I get them everytime I go to the movies (along with a large popcorn, because the 'butter' is animal friendly). They're sweet, but sour at the same time. Yumm...

I adore Jolly ranchers. I'm also deeply in love with vegan dark chocolate... Mmm... To be honest, I love every kind of candy (vegetarian, of course!) I have a sweet tooth... It can be bad, at times-but that's alright, we all have our weaknessess. ;-)

My favorite vegan candies are Jolly Ranchers and Airheads taffy, but then again Sweet Tarts are also good...hmmm...so many choices.

"comment below with your favorite vegan candy" Wow so many choices, but if I had to pick I would say pez. Who honestly can say they don't love pez they come in so many flavors and those awesome
dispensers.

I'd love to try this!

Posted by: Denise at October 10, 2008 4:43 PM
                                                               

My favorite vegan candy? Well, that's hard because I love all of them! But my all time fvorite? That would have to be Food Fight's Tropical Source Vegan Rice Crisp bars. They're delicious and addictive! And they don't test on aniamls either ♥ I can't comprehend why anyone would think that is okay! But I will try to make this shot and sweet, My other one, since i cant have one favorite :) is the Endangered Species Dark Chocolate (supreme or extreme I cant decide!) It is so good for me, the cacoa farmers,AND endangered species. I would love to try the new vegan candies in the gift basket as i am open to vegan anyting :) but will also respect whoever wins! After all, isn't the fact we all are helping animals the point?

Posted by: stèphanie at October 10, 2008 4:45 PM
                                                               

Why do ground up animal parts have to be in candy when we have so many plant and manmade ingredients? My parents think I'm being obsessive but I think putting animal ingredients in candy is stupid, cruel and disgusting. I'm so glad Pangea also realizes that!

Posted by: Michelle at October 10, 2008 4:48 PM
                                                               

Jolly Ranchers!!!

I like Hot Tamales!(Actually I like any spicy vegan food.) I also like Black & Green's Dark Chocolate bars. I don't like candy that is like pure sugar and fake fruit flavoring.

Ahh yum, candy. I have to say, I must go with the originals. I love blow pops. I don't know why, I was just always into fruity candy. :) Vegan candy would hit the spot for Halloween. It looks so good. How can you not pick yourself?

Posted by: Katie at October 10, 2008 5:24 PM
                                                               

I'd say Caramels.

My favourite vegan candy has to be Laffy Taffy! I know this is weird, but I love to put it in the microwave for a few seconds before I eat it so that it gets really gooey ahaha. Soo delicious. I've never tried any of the candies in the basket, but I'd love to!

Posted by: Emily at October 10, 2008 6:13 PM
                                                               

I love Cow tails candy!

Posted by: Chris at October 10, 2008 6:18 PM
                                                               

I've always, ALWAYS, loved pixy stix. It's pure sugar in a tiny little tube.
Greatest part about it is if you go all "Breakfast Club"(you know the scene, surely), on your food it tastes delicious!
...kinda odd how I'm known for my pixy "fetish" though...people can easily "bribe" me with one of the HUGE sticks. ^.^ but at least they don't bribe me to do evil!

Oh man, I don't really know what my favorite vegan candy is, although I recently got an Endangered Species Chocolate Bar (88% chocolate) and it was really string but very good. :)

Posted by: Kyle at October 10, 2008 6:37 PM
                                                               

that is great
=D
i think it is so stupid how people have to use animal producrs, when they could just use things that don't harm animals.

halloween is one of my favorite holidays
i just found out that my favorite candy (hot tamalies) [sp?] are vegan =D
haha

My fave is Pangea's marshmallows, which I haven't been able to find in a while. I hope they didn't stop making them... I also like Kona Kava's chocolate chips. None of that bone-char processed cane sugar in those - bleh!

Ooooh, I've always LOVED watermelon laffy taffy. It's so chewy and sweet, oooh I love it, I could eat it all day! Sometimes they've got those adorable little fake watermelon seeds in them that make it chewy AND crunchy!

It's great that companies now are making candy for vegans. I'm not vegan (yet) but I try to eat vegan three times a week and if I win this, Halloween will be no exception to the 3x a week rule! (:

I love, love, love carob-covered raisins. I can hear a lot of collective groaning out there, because carob has always gotten a bad rap. But I was raised on this stuff, so it is all about what you are used to. I also love fruit roll-ups which although technically aren't candy, if you are desperate for something sweet, they hit the mark.

I wish I could post the name of my favorite vegan candy here, but I can't. I have lived in a fantasy world for some time of the seventeen years of my existence, but Peta has helped me realize the truth. You may call me naive for not knowing animal parts were put in candy-I could never even begin to fathom how something like CANDY could ever contain animal parts. I thought that was one of the things in which I could safely assume wouldn't contain animal parts, but obviously I was wrong. Would this necessarily be considered an entry, as I didn't post a name of my favorite vegan candy? Maybe not. But I would be interested in winning this contest so I could be aware of companies that don't contain animal ingredients. I'm sorry this is so long, but thanks for reading :)

Mmm.. candy. LOL It's so hard to pick a favourite, especially with living next to a convenience store!

I'd have to say Maynard's Fruit Mania(specifically the grape and strawberry flavors!) for my fav vegan candy though, .. or perhaps Dinosours! I love turning over the package and seeing pectin and not gelatin(as well as lots of other animal bits and pieces)

Its so nice to know that going veg means that you can eat all the yummy stuff without having to have guilt and sadness to go with the candy

I love Halloween! My favorite vegan candy is any Endangered Species chocolate bar that I can get my hands on! They are all so good, the packaging rocks, and it's awesome that 10% of the proceeds from each chocolate bar helps endangered animals!

Posted by: Lena at October 10, 2008 11:57 PM

I love Maya Gold chocolate; it's vegan, fair trade and organic. And I've come across these really nice gelatine free cola bottle sweets that are just sooo nice! I like buying vegan chocolates and sweets to share with my friends and family to show them how good vegan food can be!

Jolley Ranchers. Especially the green apple and peach flavors.

the endangered species chocolate bars are amazing. Bats are such special creatures, as well as all of the others that are endangered, and deserved to be helped out. this chocolate goes for a great cause, and i'm always a sucker for the amazing pictures on the front. haha...in all seriousness, animals don't need to be put in something that we eat for our enjoyment. I would love to win these to prove to everyone that you don't need to ruin an animal's life to eat something delicious.
thanks

My favourite vegan or vegetarian snacks are fruits, cause, people, when you live in Chile, your posibilities of finding something more sofisticated are practically 0. At least we are great fruit producer and they're cheap 8D (For example, one kg of apples costs less than one dollar, lucky me. *I hate apples*, and that's the same with all fruits and vegetables). But I'd love to try some of those things you have there. If I go to the States anytime soon, I'll buy lots of them to eat here.

Personaly I have always grown up loving Swedish Fish but I never knew they where vegan until I saw it on the "The Stuff//What to eat//411 on 7-11" sections and I was shocked.

The little bat on the Endangered Species chocolate bar looks so adorable. I love bats... When I was a child and watched that Fern Gully movie with Roben Williams as "Batty", that was when I started liking the little animals. Good movie btw.

I love Jolly ranchers. Nice package. It all sounds really good! Little Debbie Cakes, etc. get old that's why i love jolly ranchers, gobstoppers, and charms blow pops as well. I always liked that you get to have a bubble gum at the end of that pop

Posted by: Tammy OHagan at October 11, 2008 10:46 PM
                                                               

I was about to say that I actually have no idea what my favorite vegan candy was ; because I've never had one that was any good. Buttt I saw the above comments with people saying that Pez/Dots/etc was their favorite candy and I was like "NO WAY" so I looked it up on google and sure enough came across PETA's list of vegan candy! Out of the list there, Swedish Fish & Twizzlers win without a doubt! If I had to pick one over the other, it'd be Swedish Fish hands down. =)

As for the Pangea site and the candies from them listed above, I've never tried them so I can't pick because.. well, I haven't tried them. =P

But I'd love the opportunity to! I have had really bad experiences with vegan candy, including one that smelled like feet and tasted like sewer drainage. I'm hoping I can win this and be able to change my opinion of vegan candies besides Pez, Swedish Fish & Twizzlers around for the better. =)

The first thing I'd try if I won the basket would be the Endangered Species chocolate bars (very, very cautiously :P) and then the Caramels. I *LOVELOVELOVE* caramel!

Thanks for reading and good luck to everybody!

I'd really like to prove some of this halloween candies :D Since that i love halloween AND candies. =D
Vampires Lunch seems to be the most delicious one.
But i love lollipops, so... they all seems so delicious!
I personally think that animals should win halloween vegan candies, and not be used to make the candies. :(
So... i'd love to prove these vegan candies. :D

Ah, Halloween.
My favorite holiday.

I take my little cousin and a group of her friends trick or treating and I always dress up and take them. Many people give me candy for just being dressed up and taking them. I love it. :) but, most of the candy I'm given, I give to my cousin since its not vegan.

I found that vegan candy actually test better (atleast it does to me) and I feel good about eating since no animals were harmed.

Wow I've missed gummies so much why do factories insist on making their candy out of animal parts when they can be just as good without them. I've gotten the word about Mars out around my school and I've gotten quite a few people to stop eating their products. Can anyone tell me the "scientific" part of testing candy on animals?

They're so good.
I also like the vegan cupcakes I make.
The're really good.
I'm so glad you're doing this because so many people call themselves vegetarians yet they still eat candy without knowing whats in it.
Pangea really cares about what goes into their products and im pretty sure all of their items must be amazing.

The orange candy trees look really good =)

I think the endangered species chocolate bar looks pretty good. I love candy and this is a great type of candy to eat. First it doesn't hurt animals for our enjoyment, and second i bet it taste amazing. Animals should not be hurt to keep us satisfied, it's just wrong. I hope you pick me as one of your winners, because i really would like one of those orange candy tree lollipops.

my favorite vegan candy is gummie sweets. this is because it is totally amazing and i used to eat them all the time until i became vegan. Since then i havnt had any at all because i can find a vegan option near me and all my friends sit and eat haribo round me(fair enough, they dont have to stop coz i did) but it makes me really sad i cant have any. So please pick me! Your sweets look amazing!

The coffeehouse right of campus makes and sells their own fudge. Last year I got 100 other students to sign a letter with me, requesting vegan fudge. It worked, and they started making it, and it's AMAZING! My favourite candy is Coffehouse Special Vegan Fudge!

Honestly i havn't really known of vegan candy so therefore i havn't really tasted them before.

i heard Jolly Ranchers were VEGAN and so i'd deffinatly have to say those are awesome :] i think i also heard Air-Heads are VEGAN and those would have to be my 1st fave.. but see since i havn't really tried them all winning this basket would be radd so i then COULD try them :] x
