A little known fact: the gummy candy started life as the Turkish Delight – a medicine used for sore throat around 900CE - and is a cousin to the Chuckles and jelly bean. Our question: which new gummy should we introduce at the store? The consensus: the gummy cola. And let me tell you –they’re flying off the shelves. More than the gummy bear, gummy bear, and even the jelly beans! I’m serious m- they’re delicious.

After : Later 20th Century

Before: 900 CE
