No, this happened while mom was still a single young lady...but, in fact, she did tell us kids, years later, then when she was hired to work there, the new employees were told they could eat all the candy they wanted, at the plant..they could not take any of it home...

It seemed as if the candy factory figured out, that by letting the employees eat as much candy as they wanted, especially when they were new employees, they would pig out, and stuff themselves with candy, and then eventually would get so sick of the stuff, seeing and smelling it five days a week, that they would eventually stop eating it...

Actually, I think that was a good policy, as least for my mom...she pigged out her first few days, and then after that, she was no longer smitten, with eating lots of chocolate..I guess the company would lose money on true chocoholics, but for the average worker, their policy seemed to be a good one..

Oh chocolate. Do you like milk or bittersweet? Or none of it...
