When those little ghosts and goblins (or, we're predicting, Michael Jacksons) come collecting on Halloween, make sure you have a full supply of union-made goodies to hand out. No, not our latest flyers on the economic crisis. We mean candies made by union workers.
That includes some of our favorites, such as Jelly Bellies (made in Fairfield), Red Vines, Sunkist Fruit Gel Slices, Sweethearts (those crunchy little hearts with sweet nothings stamped into them), and our guilty favorite -- candy corn! But there's way more than that.
UnionPlus has compiled a list of candy products made by members of the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union (BCTGM); snack foods by members of the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW); and fruits and nuts from members of the United Farm Workers of America (UFW). Please support our union brothers and sisters when you shop for Halloween treats this year.
