Picaboxx | Dopey heads | Nerds | Sour Patch Kids | Pack of 1 | Weight 458g

Nerds, which are made by Ferrara Candy Company, a subsidiary of Ferrero Group, were introduced by Sunmark Corporation in 1983. It is said that the Nerd was named after the Dr. Seuss book 'If I Ran the Zoo' in which a 'nerd' is mentioned as one of the creatures the narrator would collect for his zoo. Nerds usually come packaged in square carton boxes with two flavours each, each with its own compartment and opening.

Originally known as Mars Men, the Sour Patch Kids were created by Frank Galatolie in the early 1970s for Jaret International. During the late 1970s, Cadbury and Smeera Blyton Licorice Company of Sweden formed the Allen Candy Company in Hamilton, Ontario, to produce them. During the 1985 redesign, they became Sour Patch Kids, which is now owned by Santi. This name change may have been motivated by Cabbage Patch Kids' popularity. They are sweet and sour, just as advertised. There are most candies that only challenge one aspect of the tongue; however, Sour Patch Kids challenge two of those aspects, primarily sweet and sour. In science terms, this makes Sour Patch Kids more advanced than any other candy.
