Today's Reason to Celebrate

November 4, 2010 is

National Candy Day

There are thousands of different type of candy, all with their unique flavors, taste, and history. For example, did you know that Tootsie Rolls were created by Leo Hirshfield of New York in 1896? He named them after his daughter's nickname "Tootsie." 

Candy isn't just for kids, either. Americans over the age of 18 consume approximately 65 percent of candy produced each year. Candy is also a favorite treat worldwide. Though the average American eats 25 pounds of candy each year, the average person in Denmark eats 36 pounds each year!

Whether you like chocolate candy, gummy candy, or super sweet and sugary candy, celebrate National Candy Day with your faves!
