Everybody loves candy!

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.
