Advertisements are what brings consumers into buying their candy. For instance, if a consumer walks past the candy section of a store,. see a new type of sour candy, and their mouth starts to water, they are going to want to buy it.

“ Candy in general can deteriorate your health in major ways.” says David Krauklis.

Candy in general can lead to diabetes, but sour candy is worse on the enamel on your teeth. Not everyone enjoys sour candy but for the ones that do it is dangerous for the mouth. Remember the 100 warhead challenge? The results from that were horrifying. Participants tongues were completely destroyed resulting in them having to go to the hospital because their mouths were bleeding profusely.

“ Candy is a sweet treat you can enjoy no matter what time of day.” says Ken Krauklis. Chocolate such as Kit-Kats, or Milky Ways maybe but sour candy that's full of acid? Any type of sour candy is way worse than chocolate because of the amount of acid that is in it.

“ It can rot your teeth, it really has no benefit.” says Trisha Baranski.
