Here it comes again, the official (unofficial) holiday of Halloween! There is no doubt, it is beloved by children and adults alike. The costumes, decorations and freaky/fun tricks and treats are wickedly delightful for those who participate before colder weather kicks in. To ensure it is fun for everyone, set expectations – your goblins and ghouls should know the food safety rules ahead of time to set the stage for happy smiles versus scowls and howls. Here are some ‘tricks” for caregivers hoping for a howling good time!
- Eat before you treat – some great Halloween treat ideas to set the stage are right here (with spooky music!) on Price Chopper YouTube and Pinterest boards . That will make it easier to create the plan that parents/guardians must check items before eating. We have treats for adults too – pumpkin everything and fall favorites to fuel your fun is right here Fall Flavors – Price Chopper – Market 32!
- Children should only accept treats that are commercially wrapped. Throw away anything that is torn, has pinholes, or looks unusual in any way. Fresh fruit, if accepted, should be carefully checked and washed before eating.
- If your child has a food allergy, you already know that treats are tricky. Verify Epi-pens are not expired and are readily available. Always check the labels of each item. Some homes may have a teal-colored pumpkin (Allergy-Safe Tips for Trick-or-Treating – FoodAllergy.org) to signal they have some treats without some allergens, but adults must still check the individual items before eating. The same goes for gluten free candy – Celiac.com has published their 2024 Gluten Free Halloween Candy list – you can check it out
- Ages and stages – some candies are choking hazards for smaller children. Gum, hard candies, peanuts and even small toys could be a concern. Check treats are appropriate and stay present while they are enjoyed.
- Managing added sugars at Halloween doesn’t have to be tricky! How much and how often should be part of the plan and discussed ahead of time to keep the howls to a minimum. A national poll shows 78% of parents plan for about two pieces of candy per day. That helps children learn candy can be part of eating well. In 2017, the Partnership for a Healthier America and the National Confectioners Association partnered to help with portion control and front-of-pack labeling, resulting in over 90% of candy and chocolates labeled to help your goblins and ghouls enjoy treats.

- Flashlights, candy, party supplies and more are all at your local Price Chopper/Market 32 waiting for you to create a “monster” good time. Happy Halloween!

October 12th is National Farmer’s Day! We are grateful for all farmers – big and small, especially our local dairy farmers that ensure we have great quality fresh milk in our stores! Milk is a delicious choice; an affordable, convenient and sustainable drink that has been an important part of foodways around the world for thousands of years. We have some great products in our milk case and dairy aisle – see the insights below as we spotlight a few choices for you!
Good to know – Dairy farmers work 365 days per year, taking great care of their cows and ensuring the highest quality and safety standards from cow to cup. Dairy farmers are also continually driving the science and practices that make dairy farming sustainable in every way possible. Learn more about the many ways dairy farms are ensuring sustainability is top of mind! Dairy Farming Environmental Impact | American Dairy Association NE.
Chocolate Milk is a wellbeing champion! It is the most popular drink in schools, which is good news – it is the leading source of critical nutrients for millions of school children. Milk and chocolate milk fuel growth and hydration, offering a thirteen-nutrient package that includes protein for muscle growth, calcium and magnesium that build lifelong bone health, and Vitamin D and potassium, two nutrients that are often below intake recommendations for children and adults. Research shows that children who drink chocolate milk have higher overall nutrient intakes than those who do not, while keeping adding sugars to a minimum.
Lactose-free Milk – Some people have challenges digesting lactose, the natural sugar in milk. This is called Lactose Intolerance. It is not an allergic reaction – it is very manageable using real milk products that have reduced that lactose content, along with strategies that can even help restore lactose digestion over time. Lactose-free milk can be a game changer, ensuring those with this issue can still enjoy milk and get all its nutrition benefits. Dairy products that are naturally low in lactose, such as natural cheese and yogurts, can usually be enjoyed by those navigating this concern.
Explore our milk and dairy aisles, there is always something delicious and nutritious waiting there for you! Scan the QR code for this amazing Pumpkin Pie In a Glass Smoothie recipe and join us as we celebrate #NationalFarmersDay!

September is Happy Cat Month, and here at Price Chopper and Market 32, we believe that we should be celebrating our four-legged friends everyday! The initiative, started by the CATalyst Council, aims to raise awareness about the importance of good care for cats, including proper nutrition, regular veterinary visits, mental stimulation, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for them.
The month of September encourages cat parents to take proactive steps to create the highest quality of life for their fur baby. Here are some tips:
- Providing a balanced diet tailored to the cat’s age, health, and lifestyle. Talk to your vet about the best options for your cat.
- Scheduling regular veterinary check-ups and vaccinations.
- Enriching the cat’s environment with toys, scratching posts, and interactive play.
- Ensuring mental stimulation and exercise to prevent boredom and stress.
- Offering plenty of love, attention, and affection to strengthen the human-animal bond.
- Often, cats need other cat-friends. Believe it or not, cats are social creatures, and adopting another cat may improve their quality of life.
At Price Chopper and Market 32, we want your cat to have the best quality of life. Did you know that not only do we sell cat food, toys, and litter options, but you can get a prescription for your cat (or dog) filled in our pharmacy! We have so much to offer for your furry family.
