A Brief History:
Origination: National Sour Candy Day celebrates the origin of sour candy. People celebrate every day with sour candy, and special occasions like anniversaries, birthdays and a great day, to go alongside. The history of sour candy and its creation can be traced to B.C. ancient times, from the Ancient Egyptians for cult purposes. In ancient times, Egyptians, Arabs, and Chinese made candies with fruits and nuts that caramelized with honey. The two oldest sour candy types are licorice and ginger. The historical roots of licorice are found in the early years of man’s appearance.

More Recent Evolution: The past millennium has had sour candy evolve out of the ancient heritage, but cam around within the past few centuries

The Last Few Centuries: In the last few centuries, sour candy has evolved into an industry that involves employment opportunities, the building of factories, holidays based off the industry, and a lot of sweet things! Unfortunately it does keep dentists in business as well, as because on the downside, the sugar is a direct decay factor to tooth enamel and also a breeding =ground for bacteria that eventually causes plaque and makes the teeth come from the whiteness that teeth need to be considered “brilliant”.
