That special time of year when the mystical and the paranormal are at the forefront of Americans\u2019 minds and imaginations. A time for urban legends, ghost stories, and (unfortunately) drug myths. Specifically, a very old drug myth which has undergone an update in recent years, and has surged back into popularity\u2014the so-called \u201cpoisoned candy\u201d myth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Those of us in Anderson County who are, as they say, \u201cof a certain age\u201d can recall a time when parents across the country were terribly afraid of their children biting into razor blade-harboring Granny Smiths, chemical-laced homemade cookies, or drug-infused candy bars. Some of us will recall being made to toss out any treats which weren\u2019t individually wrapped, or any suspicious-looking candies which may have been the subject of tampering.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7458 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/yes-and-studio-XVYz_QeiEBw-unsplash-1024x791.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"305\" height=\"236\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/yes-and-studio-XVYz_QeiEBw-unsplash-1024x791.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/yes-and-studio-XVYz_QeiEBw-unsplash-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/yes-and-studio-XVYz_QeiEBw-unsplash-768x593.jpg 768w, https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/yes-and-studio-XVYz_QeiEBw-unsplash-1536x1187.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/yes-and-studio-XVYz_QeiEBw-unsplash-2048x1583.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/yes-and-studio-XVYz_QeiEBw-unsplash-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 305px) 100vw, 305px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The enduring poisoned candy myth has been repeatedly, thoroughly debunked by a variety of experts over the past one hundred and twenty-five years, including scientists, folklorists, and public health and law enforcement officials. As early as the 1890\u2019s, the US Bureau of Chemistry (a predecessor agency of today\u2019s Federal Food and Drug Administration) analyzed samples of hundreds of common candies sold throughout the nation but found no evidence at all of the presence of poisons or \u201cindustrial adulteration\u201d (or chemical contamination from the industrial process of candy making and packaging). Since then, many tests, studies, and investigations have been conducted,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">but no evidence has ever been found to support a single case of a malevolent stranger killing or permanently injuring a child with poisoned candy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, the poisoned candy myth has evolved somewhat, although the myth still reflects common anxieties and repeats two consistent themes, imminent danger to children and food contamination. In recent years, fears of poisoned candy have become fears of so-called \u201crainbow fentanyl,\u201d brightly multi-colored fentanyl pills or tablets, home-pressed instead of in a lab, which resemble candies. While rainbow fentanyl pills certainly do exist, the myth is that malicious strangers <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">intentionally <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">distribute these pills (which can resemble candies) to children on Halloween, as explained last year by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2022\/10\/31\/1132737831\/rainbow-fentanyl-halloween-candy\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NPR<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Just like the myths of common candies being contaminated by industrial processes back in the 1890\u2019s, this myth has been thoroughly and repeatedly debunked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The reality is this: according to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/in-depth\/graphics\/2022\/10\/31\/more-kids-killed-by-cars-halloween-any-other-day\/10650960002\/#:~:text=Cars%20and%20other%20motor%20vehicles%20pose%20a%20particular,times%20higher%20on%20Halloween%20than%20on%20other%20days.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">USA Today<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the greatest threat to children\u2019s safety and health on Halloween each year is traffic. More kids are hurt and killed on Halloween in car collisions and being struck by cars than any other single cause. And it&#8217;s never a bad idea to keep medication that might be in the home safely stowed away so kids don&#8217;t get the bright colored shapes confused with their favorite candy, especially anything that comes in gummy form. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.asapofanderson.org\/initiatives\/medication-lock-boxes\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact us<\/span><\/a> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">if you need a medication lock box for your home. So, while it&#8217;s never a bad idea to monitor a child\u2019s Halloween bag or bucket for any unusual items, the best way to keep him or her safe is to keep a sharp eye and hold little hands anywhere near moving traffic. And most importantly, have a happy Halloween!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Red Ribbon Week<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, October 23-31 is Red Ribbon Week!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7461 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/2023-Guide-Cover-1.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"252\" height=\"314\" srcset=\"https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/2023-Guide-Cover-1.webp 640w, https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/2023-Guide-Cover-1-241x300.webp 241w, https:\/\/asapofanderson.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/2023-Guide-Cover-1-10x12.webp 10w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 252px) 100vw, 252px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nfp.org\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nfp.org<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the Red Ribbon Campaign was created after the murder of a US Drug Enforcement Agency official in 1985.
