The first incarnation of the lollipop was probably created by cave people thousands of years ago who collected honey from beehives with a stick Not wanting to waste the sweet nectar they most likely licked the stick thus inventing the world’s first lollipop Good for them (good for us) Archaeologists believe that ancient Chinese Arabs and Egyptians all produced fruit and nut confections that they "candied" in honey which serves as a preservative and inserted sticks into to make easier to eat If the 17th Century English version doesn’t count as the first modern lollipop you could look to the Civil War era for another early forerunner when hard candy was put on the tips of pencils for children The early 20th Century was the era of automation which is when the birth of the lollipop as we now know it begins in earnest but there are still discrepancies as to who is the true creator In the 17th Century as …show more content…

Everyone remembers going around as a child for one night of the year dressed up as his or her favorite ghoul or storybook character and returning home with a sack full of delicious candies. There were always a variety of candy types, but most of these candies were usually made by two of the major companies in the industry. The Hershey Company and the Tootsie Roll Company were both well represented on this night. Both companies made so many different types of candies for young children to enjoy that the names would forever be imbedded in their minds. These treats were not just for the children, but for the children in all the adults as well. Taste and memories alone are not good enough for the companies to have had as long a tradition as
Frito-Lay first toyed with multigrain snack chips in the 1970s, when research indicated a need for a snack in this category. Prontos, released in 1974 and distributed for four years, weren’t incredibly well received. While a lack of success is attributed to a confusing name, poor manufacturing and too narrow a market, Dwight Riskey, VP of Marketing Research and New Business, admits that he is “not sure there were dramatic things wrong with the product design [...]. It may have been invented and introduced before its time.” This sentiment was reflected in the Harvest Project in the early 1980s, when Frito-Lay developed several multigrain products to attempt and have a possible healthy alternative to saltier snack foods for the baby-boomer generation. Lackluster response caused the project to stall into the mid 80s as focus was put on developing new flavors and healthier alternatives in other brands.

Formerly located in Newburyport, Massachusetts, the Josiah Bent Bakery, is credited for the creation of the saltine cracker as far back as 1801. However, it was not until 1876 that the first name brand saltine cracker, Premium, rose to popularity. Major advertising for Premium did not begin until the 1930's, during the Great Depression, with the famous slogan, "Polly want a cracker." Today, consumers count on Premium to ease hangovers and nausea (Hiskey 1). On the other hand, Ritz crackers did not make its debut until 1935. Named after the Riz hotel, this
Today’s most popular drink was not a drink that was thought of and brought to existence. It was made almost by accident. One with a love for medicine and with a background in pharmacy mixed a few components together and with one taste from his buddies, created what today still stands strong as a powerhouse in the soft drink market. With his new drink becoming so popular, Bradham decided to pursue a whole new vision. Medicine was now behind him, and now he focused his attention on bringing up Pepsi cola to the masses. In 1902 Bradham decided to turn his pharmacy over to his assistant and dedicate his time to making Pepsi Cola his business.

Pepsi Cola was now a fully functioning company. (Copeland,
