They sell the real Coke, Coke the way it use to be in the good ole days. Made with real cane sugar, in a real glass bottle.
I have to scream - WHAT'S UP WITH THAT COCA-COLA???!!!
ALL YOU ARE GIVING US IS CORN SYRUP IN A CAN! I love my Coca Cola.......can't I have sugar too?
Mumble, mumble......"A government conspiracy, no doubt, to keep me away from the sugar, I love so dear, and force me to loose weight, but whose government?"
By the way, the Mexican Food place don't even know we are alive here at Twisted Candies. We don't get a dime for telling you about them.

People, you sweet tooth is getting the rip off.
Read the Girl Scout Handbook from 1927 and you will find the recipe for S'mores! We use to believe the term - S'mores meant "some more, please", but no one really knows for sure.
But , they weren't called smores then, but it was the first recorded recipe combining toasted marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers.
Did you know if you....................
Studied the life of Thomas Alva Edison, you would discover when Tom was 12 years old, he worked on the Grand Trunk Railroad as a "candy butcher"! Thomas Edison sold newspapers, fruit, books, and candy! I wonder what a candy butcher was paid.....hum.........and why did they refer to it as a "butcher"?
Did you know if you.........................
Read newspapers published in the late 1800's, a company, called Ganja Wallah Hasheesh Candy Company, advertised candy made by combining Maple Sugar and Hashish!
This well established company legally sold Candy Hashish Concoctions for at least 40 years. Sold over the counter at pharmacies, it was advertised in many newspapers as sweeties treats.
Wallah sold this product for 40 years. It was sold out in the open. It was purchased by many consumers, in public, with no fear of the government.............(probably because their grandparents remembered a little tea party held in Boston and the government stayed out of peoples business and people weren't so politically correct and neighbors weren't stickin their freakin noses over freakin privacy fences, in your own backyard, with that whinny screachin voice of hers asking,.........."What's that funny looking flower growing there???" So you run them off with a hoe and ................ahahah.....umhump.....excuse me.............sorry, sorry,........)
Anyway.........what was I saying?..........I can't seem to recall where I was...........O, well.....
About the hashish candy.......Do you know what this means???
This, my friends, means that the United States of America has a history of sweet eating people who adore Maple Sugar Candies!
See, the candy........................ is love. Hurray for the candy~

Read "Santa and the Magic Key", plus recipes for your holidays. A story by Robin Wallace.
Tomatoes first originated in Central America! Mexican's were the first to use tomatoes in their delicious dishes. Italians didn't start using tomatoes until the middle of the 1500's.
Tomatoes were slow to catch on, however, as most people in Europe were convinced tomatoes were evil and an aphrodisiac. Many people thought you could die from eating one.
You can read all about tomatoes here.
