    Bugles: Shaped like a cornucopia or Horn of Plenty, a symbol of our Nation's abundance.

    Pretzels: Arms folded in prayer, a freedom sought by the founders of our country.

    Candy Corn: Sacrifices of the Pilgrim's first winter. Food was so scarce that the settlers survived on just a few kernels of corn per day.

    Nut or Seeds: Promise of a future harvest, one will reap only if seeds are planted and tended to with diligence.

    Dried Fruits: Harvest gifts of our bountiful land.

    M&Ms: Memories of those who came before us to guide us to a blessed future.

    Hershey's Kiss: The love of family and friends that sweetens our lives.
