Things got sweet and a little sticky in U.S. Foods class today. Students rolled up their sleeves and took on the tasty challenge of making homemade saltwater taffy — this soft, chewy, whipped, and pulled candy originated in Atlantic City, New Jersey, in the 1880s! The results were deliciously worth it. Way to stretch those skills, everyone!🍬
