Local candy is hard to do. It’s not as simple as local fruit, or local meat, or local milk. Candy is, at its roots, a global mixture of chocolate from down south, and sugar from the fields, and fruit from out west.
Can we get a Jolly Rancher for an A? A Snicker’s for winning a trivia game? Or how about a Reece’s Peanut Butter Cup just for showing up?Nope. No more. At least not in one school district.
The Walk to Self-Realization is apparently paved with candy. Specifically, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, FUN SIZE M&M’s and little Snicker’s bars. Also, Jolly Ranchers, Werther’s Originals, and Twizzlers.
