Salt Water Taffy

Salt-water taffy is Atlantic City’s treat. Known to many, it is both chewy and sweet. This is an ever-popular type of candy that has been around for over a century. Pieces are wrapped in waxed paper individually, and contained in boxes with varied weight and quantity. Being something any visitor savors, it comes in a great variety of flavors. Most of the stores selling salt-water taffy can be found along the boardwalk easily. If you are yet to sample this regional treat, your visit to Atlantic City is not complete.

I love love love salt water taffy. And I love the poem! On an oregon beach boardwalk we visited when seeing our son graduate from law school back there, he took us to a taffy factory. It was really fun. There were over 200 flavors for sale and I ate around 40 of them riding home!!!

Yes, I have to admit it, I love salt water taffy more than almost any food in the world! I just don't get it that often, not as often as I'd like anyway! Great descriptions of the treat! Awesome Work!!
