Beyond scary ghosts and wishing your neighbor would take down that spine-tingling grim reaper, Halloween season is bent on spooking away a healthy diet.

Handfuls of candy corn, bowls of popcorn balls and hot apple cider don't help. Then there are those miniature-sized candy bombs, like Snickers Miniatures.

How many calories in just one, teeny tiny Snickers Miniature?

You need to pay special attention if your cubicle or garbage can is littered with mini-wrappers.



A single Snickers Miniature has 45 calories and 2.1 grams of fat. Pop a quick four -- like most Snickers fans -- and you're ingesting 170 calories and 8 grams of fat, just like that. Best bet is to stay away from pre-Halloween handfuls and only open your trick-or-treat supply on the big day. Don't scare all your hard diet and fitness work away exposing yourself to Halloween candy fall-out -- you'll be facing a much harder holiday season soon enough.
