A new poll has good news for kids trick-or-treating this Halloween: They're much more likely to encounter candy than a healthier alternative.

The good news for kids trick-or-treating this Halloween: They're much more likely to encounter candy than a healthier alternative. Americans this year have a wide variety of plans to celebrate the spooky holiday, from carving pumpkins to watching scary movies.
A majority of Americans think it’s unsafe for kids to trick-or-treat alone, including about a third who say it’s very unsafe. Perhaps not surprisingly, city residents and people with younger children at home are especially likely to say it’s very unsafe. While pretty much every house on Bernard Street is good for a treat, the poll shows what every kid knows: not everyone gives out candy. In all, about 4 in 10 say they plan to do so.
By comparison, close to half of adults under age 30 do plan to dress up. Younger Americans are also far more likely than older ones to have plans to decorate for the holiday, 46% to 28%.
