How Sweet! Iowa Nice on Full Display in Touching Halloween Video

We've all encountered or heard about the 'bad eggs' over Halloween that gobble up their neighbor's candy bowl in one fell swoop.

But this year, we in fact have the opposite.

Our neighbor to our East, the State of Iowa, has long been known to have very nice folks, and has even dubbed their citizens as "Iowa nice."

Whether you buy into the fact that those in the Hawkeye State are in fact nicer than average is a different story, but it's hard to find anything bad to say about one of the stories from Iowa over Halloween.

Trick or Treaters on Halloween night in a Des Moines suburb encountered an empty bowl at a house that surely was filled to the brim with candy just a few minutes prior.

What happened next, you'll just have to see to believe:

That might be one of the sweeter things to come out of the Halloween holiday in quite some time, and there's a lot of sweet things on the final day of October every year.

Kudos to the kiddos that surely made someone else's night without even knowing it.

Job well done, Iowa.

Inside Minnesota's Largest Candy Store

I had been to Minnesota's Largest Candy Store once before, but they did some pretty cool things since the last time I was there. They added a bunch of superheroes, Star Wars stuff, and a candy band.

According to their Facebook page, Jim's Apple Farm is actually how the now huge candy store got its start. It is located in Jordan, MN and you can't miss it. It is a huge yellow building.

Even though candy is mentioned in the name, they have a little bit of everything. They have fresh baked pies and cookies and fudge. We walked in and it smelled amazing!

They also have the largest selection of sodas! Then there is chocolate and taffy and gummies and chips and puzzles and games. So much stuff!

They even have a Zoltar machine like in the movie, Big. I had to check that out. He told me the only helping hand is at the end of my arm. Gee, thanks Zoltar.

There were even crickets and worms! Not gummy worms, but actual worms.

They also have candy from all over the world!

The store is seasonal, however. November is their last month of operation for the season.
