In case you missed the episode of KUWTK—featuring Penelope and North’s Candy Land-themed birthday party—here’s a recap: Kourt and Kim were debating the type of candy to have at the party. Kourt suggested having healthier options, while Kim was Team Traditional Candy.

For those of you looking for healthier alternatives to a bag of delicious Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, this one’s for you. Yes, it’s tempting to grab a Double Stuf Oreo, but if you have the right alternatives stocked in your pantry you can train your body to crave less glucose-filled options, such as dried goji berries or organic candy from Black Forest.
