Candy Corns
More than 35 million pounds of candy
corns will be produced this year. That's nine billion individual
candy corns!
Candy corns were originally invented by
George Renninger of Wunderlee Candy circa 1880.
In 1900, the Goelitz family began
making “butter cream candies” or candy corns.
Because America was an agrarian society
in the early 1900s, the corn shape of candy corns was an instant hit.
The three-colored candy was a novelty
and the public literally ate them up.
Four generations latter, Herman
Goelitz, Sr. started making jelly beans. His family company became
Jelly Belly.
Individual candy corns have, on
average, 6 calories each, and no fat.
A simple 30 minute walk will burn off
15 candy corns.
Better yet, enjoy the rich smell of
CANDY CORN with zero calories! I love the candy corn candles and candy corn cubes from FOR EVERY HOME. This year, FOR EVERY HOME has even come out with candy corn OAM Gels and candy Corn OAM Sprays!http://www.stacie.foreveryhome.net
