The Candy Wrapper Museum

The "Pumpkin" gallery is here so that I can demonstrate to you why it's been so hard to collect any worthwhile holiday candy in the last ten years or so. The whimsical, childlike packaging that was once a staple of Halloween has been replaced with "nice", "presentable" candy that appears to be aimed at adults.

There's a sameness to the wrappers and the candies themselves that also makes these items barely worth including. However, this is what the holidays have become, and therefore this needs to be documented.

This is really an attractive wrapper, but there's nothing much to say about it beyond that. What happened to the fun?
