How Unhealthy Is Easter Candy?
Easter candy isn't healthy for you. Also, the sun is hot.
You know Easter candy (or any candy for that matter) isn't good for you, but how unhealthy is it? Newsweek gives an overview of the nutritional information of eight popular Easter candies. For instance, eat four Peeps and you've got 32 grams of sugar in your belly. Eat a Reese's Peanut Butter Egg and you'll add 10 grams of fat to your system. Eat any candy and you'll probably eat more sugar and/or fat than you're supposed to. Will any of these nutrition facts cause you to eat less Easter candy? I know I'll still mindlessly dip into the bag of jelly beans on my desk.
