No kid has ever found a razor blade in their Halloween candy (or apple)
In fact, no poisonings have ever been reported either.

 Even when I was a kid they tried to scare us with apple/razor blade thing. As a kid if I received one of those Carmel apples there was no way I wasnโ€™t eating it. 
 Well get this. Friend just sent me a news snippet from Denmark where some 8 year old got a dime bag of cocaine in their treat bowl. ๐Ÿ˜ณ

 Lol.  Bet it wasnโ€™t intentional.  And it wasnโ€™t disguised even if it was. 
My Point stands.

โ€”-Cocaine is sold in a dime bag??Friend of a friend told me a โ€œdime bagโ€ was an 80โ€™s term for $10 worth of marijuana but anyway.  ๐Ÿ˜

One of them is this:
If you step on a needle, if a needle pierces your foot, it gradually goes up your vessels and reaches your heart and kills you!
