Today's Reason to Celebrate

July 15, 2009 was

National Gummi Worm Day

First created by the German company Trolli in 1981, nearly 60 years after the invention of the gummi bear, gummi worms were intended as a way for kids to shock their parents. Did you know that the word gummi comes from the German word for "rubber"?  

Today, gummi worms come in a variety of sugary and sour flavors and have become the most popular gummi candy ever made. The proof? A Facebook page for these multi-colored, gummi delights has nearly 1 million fans! They even have a popular candy-tasting drink named after them that combines strawberry vodka, sprite and grenadine. Now that's a following!

Sticky and sweet, yet creepy and crawly, these four-inch long candies brighten anyone's day. Pick up a bag today to celebrate National Gummi Worm Day!

  • July 15, 2009 is also National Tapioca Pudding Day
