Episode 97
Have you ever wondered where your favorite candies come from—or, better yet, how they’re made? This week, we’re taking a sweet road trip to five of America’s most iconic candy factories. From PEZ dispensers in Connecticut to Dum Dum Pops in Ohio, we’ll explore the fascinating history behind these classic confections and discover what makes their factory tours a must-see for candy lovers of all ages.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How PEZ started what the original dispensers looked like.
- The presidential connection that made Jelly Belly jelly beans a national sensation (plus how they ended up in space!)
- The story behind Dum Dum Pops and what is the mystery flavor
This is part one of our two-part candy adventure! 🍬 Next week, we’ll dive into chocolate factories that will have you craving a road trip of your own.
