How about numerous rumors? Since I was a kid, I've heard of a few incidences where some idiot stuck something in an apple. That's it. What parent is going to let their kid eat an apple from their trick-or-treat bag? We all grew up with that one. And nobody gives out apples or fruit or homemade anything for fear that somebody will get sick and come back to sue them even if it wasn't 'their' treat that made the kid sick! I'm a stickler for inspecting my kids' bags first. But I won't rob them of the good old-fashioned Trick-Or-Treating tradition. We stay in our neighborhood, and their grandparents' neighborhoods. People we see when we go for walks. If people would turn off their TV's now and then things would be different.
