I'm sorry, I think.....I mean, I'm not insulting your parents, they raised a lovely person in you, but a bag of dog food, really? Wow.
Its funny but also kinda sad! :p
They might not have had the money for anything else. When my daughters were little, money was so tight one year that the one who didn't have a hand-me-down costume to use was festooned with purple balloons and went trick-or-treating as a bunch of grapes. It's long since passed into family lore that we laugh about.

I'm pretty sure that was it. I smelled awful though. They could have gotten inventive with something less stinky

Lol that kid isn't even black. People looking for stuff to be upset about again.

I didnt think so. There was a black girl there wearing that white costume, you can see the difference between the 2.
I have a friend who is Eastern Indian, from one of the caribbean islands. He looks a lot like that kid.

It's not about the shade. Its the facial features and hair which make him look like he's not African american.
