Oh, heavens! These are so beary good!! Ever wonder where the gummy bear originated from? In 1920, a poor confectionery factory worker in Bonn, Germany, decided that it was high time he struck out on his own. Armed with nothing but a bag of sugar, a marble slab, a kettle, an oven and a rolling pin, Hans Riegel began whipping up hard candies in his kitchen, which his wife would then deliver from the basket of her bike. The Riegels realized that they'd need a gimmick and fast to keep competitive. The Riegels decided to make their next product a soft, fruit-flavored chew in the shape of a dancing bear. These gummy bears are not from Germany- which is arguably the best! But, they are just as wonderful and fruit all the same! When you eat a dancing bear, you are eating one sweet piece of history!
