Bargain guide, week beginning October 27th

Today is American Beer Day; tomorrow is both National Chocolate Day and Wild Foods Day. Wipe that look off your face. If you’ve ever picked a blackberry off a bush you’ve eaten wild food. Halloween is both Candy Apple Day and, of course, Trick Or Treat For UNICEF Day. One week from today is National Sandwich Day.

Fascinating article at the Fooducate blog: nearly half the calories children under 12 consume are derived from junk food. Meanwhile, McDonald’s stock is at an all-time high and set to continue upwards.

And at Serious Eats, a genuine recipe for homemade candy corn. Honest. Homemade candy corn.
