goodbye/fun facts....On Feb 23 1896...The Tootsie roll is
introduced. Austrian immigrant Leo Hishfield took the idea to a New
York store and sold the idea. The name comes from Leo's 5 year old
daughter, whom everyone called “Tootsie”. It became the first
“Penny candy”...today 64 million Tootsie Rolls are produced a day.
Then in 1931...the Tootsie pop came along... that's hard candy
lollipop filled with the chocolate-flavored chewy Tootsie Roll
candy. 20 million of those are produced every day. Then the Tootsie
Fruit Chews came along...they are much harder to find...but come in
(lemon, lime, cherry, orange, and vanilla)
