Sugar Daddy
By Javon Mahabir
Back in the late 80’s, when I was 7 or 8 years old, my molars were taking a long time to come out. They’d get loose, but I couldn’t extract them myself. So I bought a sugar daddy. I’d sink my teeth into it, wait a few seconds, and rip open my jaw! 9 out of 10 times there’d be a tooth stuck to it. It would also gross out other kids (especially the girls). Ironically, I’d use the money I got for my tooth to buy more sugar daddies! Unfortunately, sugar daddies are also good for accidentally extracting fillings, as I later found out.
I enjoyed the satisfying, milk caramel goodness of Sugar Daddy, America’s oldest and most popular milk caramel lollipop. Created in 1925, the portable caramel lollipop was originally called the Papa Sucker, later changing its name in 1932 to suggest “a wealth of sweetness”–hence, Sugar Daddy.The slow-cooked caramel pop, packed in its trademark confetti-adorned, non-stick wax paper wrapper, provides long-lasting, sweet tooth-pleasing comfort, the perfect go-anywhere candy treat.Whenever you get the chance meet the family the whole big, happy, milk caramel family with Sugar Mama Caramels, the tasty newcomer to the Sugar Daddy and Sugar Babies candy line. The individually wrapped bite-sized, soft chews are packed with caramel flavor, making them the perfect next generation tooth puller.
