Looking for something a little fresher than a sexy witch costume this Halloween? We’ve got you covered. These outfits are so fresh, in fact, they’re inspired by your balanced diet. Snag one of these 13 costumes of healthy foods (and condiments!) that are just as fun and fit as you are.
Peas
Not only is this costume gosh-darn adorable, but think of the variations: You could tote around a cup of tea and a Corgi stuffed animal and be an English Pea, wave a United Nations flag and be World Peas, or you could say sassy things all night and be an Aw, Snap! Pea. Get ready for some compliments. ($21, amazon.com)

Corn
Low-calorie corn on the cob is a summertime treat—come fall, it makes an engagingly silly costume. Plus, just like peas, the accessorizing opportunities are fantastic: if you’re handing out treats to kids, you’re Candy Corn. Prone to bad puns? Congratulations! You’re a Corny Jokester. Throw in a toy guitar and a rock-star wig, you could be Pop Corn. If it’s chilly out, you could be Frozen Corn—but we don’t recommend that. ($36, amazon.com)

Tomato
This cute costume presents the perfect icebreaker: Are tomatoes vegetables or fruits? While you and your fellow partygoers may not agree, it’s a fact that tomatoes are high in the antioxidant lycopene as well as potassium, fiber, and vitamin C. ($39, amazon.com)
