ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

Denver collects leftover candy

TerraCycle Include USA
LiveWell Colorado suggests you not eat every single Snickers bar your kids brought home Wednesday night. Instead, they suggest you drop off leftovers at Bellco Credit Union, and in exchange you’ll get some healthier snack options and a chance at prizes. Prizes include Justin Beiber tickets — kid probably has his own chef and trainer. (You could drop it off at The Denver Post, if you give me a call and let me know what time you’ll be driving by, but we’ll just eat it. I doubt if a bunch of fat journalists is what LiveWell has in mind.) [media-credit id=309 align="alignleft" width="270"] Time to give back the extra candy? (AP) Exactly what LiveWell will do with the Halloween leftovers took a couple of extra questions. They won’t donate them tho homeless shelters or the military, because shelters already tend to get offers of a lot of unhealthy food. And the military has its own problems with obesity and bad nutrition, according to recent reports. So LiveWell will dispose of the candy; the wrappers will be used for projects at Terracycle. Here’s the schedule, one dropoff and fitness party Friday, another on Saturday: Friday, Nov. 2, from 11 a.m. – 1 p.m., Downtown Denver Bellco Credit Union Branch, 951 16th Street Suite 101, Denver. and, Saturday, Nov. 3, from 10 a.m. – 1 p.m., Lone Tree Bellco Credit Union Branch, 9220 Park Meadows Drive, Lone Tree.
