November 4th is National Candy Day! Humans have been eating candies and sweet confections for thousands of years and today is the day to celebrate! The consumption of candy dates back to the ancient Egyptians who preserved nuts and fruit in honey, and the Aztecs and Mayans who consumed chocolate during their religious rituals in as early as 300 AD. Today,
all with their unique history. Take today to indulge in a handful of your favorite candies, whether you like chocolate, caramels, hard candy, or marzipan, treat yourself to something delicious and celebrate!
