Lets be realistic about Halloween candy

In Tuesday's paper there was what was suppose to be some professional dental hygiene advice. Yes it was professional as it came from Caren Barnes a professor at the College of Dentistry but was the advice really realistic? She basically said to eat as much halloween candy as you want as long as you go brush your teeth directly after. Unless you eat your candy cooped up in your bathroom right next to your tooth brush, it's hard to understand how this would be possible. She must also be suggesting that we carry our tooth brushes with us so that every time we have a bite of candy or some sugar we can rush to the bathroom to brush our teeth! hmmmm
