CANDY TRIVIA
American adults (18 and over) consume 65 percent of the candy that's produced each year.
The Dutch are the biggest eaters of candy, at 65 pounds per person a year; Americans eat about 21 pounds a year.
Halloween, Christmas, Easter and Valentine's Day are the biggest candy selling days in that order.
Candy—sugar confectionery and chocolate—is not a recent invention: the ancient Arabs, Chinese, and Egyptians candied fruits and nuts in honey, and the Aztecs made a chocolate drink from the bean of the cacao tree.
U-Turn Vending machines help meet the needs of candy lovers all over the world.
