- Almost six in ten (57%) Canadians who hand out Halloween candy say they have to run out to buy more before October 31st because they’ve already eaten some of it;
- More than half (58%) of Canadian parents admit to eating their kids’ Halloween candy after they’ve gone to bed;
- British Columbians appear to have the biggest sweet tooth nationwide as significantly more fess up to making multiple grocery runs to replenish their trick-or-treating supply;
- Nine in ten (90%) Canadian parents say they make their children brush their teeth thoroughly before bed on Halloween night;

“It’s reassuring to know that nine in ten (90%) Canadian parents have a brush time routine with their children that they follow every night before bed including on Halloween night,” says Salma Kaddouri, Integrated Marketing and Communications Lead at Colgate-Palmolive. “Poor oral health can be scary, leading to cavities and tooth decay.
