The One Surprising Item Martha Stewart Always Hands Out on Halloween
Martha Stewart never fails to surprise us. Last year, she created a buzz on social media with her “Chobster,” a unique dish featuring a lobster stuffed inside a chicken. Now, she’s stirring up a debate with another bold hot take dividing the internet.
When it comes to Halloween, she isn’t spending time trying to impress trick-or-treaters with full-size candy bars or homemade candy apples. Instead, she’s taking a much more luxurious approach. “I usually give children an assortment of candies — quite a few candies in — in a bag and a little cash too,” Stewart said in an interview with Vogue.
Although she didn’t specify how much money she gives out, social media users shared their opinions on the idea of Stewart handing out cash to trick-or-treaters. One person commented on an Instagram post detailing this revelation, writing, “I’m going trick-or-treating at Martha’s house this year!” While another user called out, “Do you ever go to the same place and trick-or-treat again because it was a gold mine?”
Not everyone can afford to give out cash to kids on Halloween, but if you’re looking for inspiration on how to hand out non-candy treats, there are many creative routes that you can take. You can pass out ghost-shaped sugar cookies, Reese’s witches’ broomstick treats, or pumpkin patch brownies.
Stewart’s charm (and loyal fan base, despite her hot takes) comes from her willingness to break traditions in the kitchen and as a holiday host. Her Halloween cash treat reminds us to think creatively and embrace a fresh approach to getting festive.
