If you can't quite swallow handing out sugary treats, there are non-sweet alternatives that still might go over big with the trick-or-treaters. Halloween-themed stickers, temporary tattoos, or pencils are popular. So are small bottles of bubbles, small cans of playdoh, or noisemakers. Edible, non-candy treats can include individual-sized packages of pretzels or sugar-free gum.
