As so many industries/businesses are being negatively effected by the hurting economy, the NYTimes pointed out that one area currently flourishing is that of candy. Combine the low cost of sweet treats, the increased desire (and willingness to placate that desire) for a comforting sugar fix in times of lower morale, and the cutting back on other more expensive indulgences -- and it's pretty easy to understand why the candy business is indeed booming... though I've never been one to wait for dire times to give into my insane sweet tooth! So, why not jump on the bandwagon and check out your neighborhood candy shop (on the more expensive side- sort of the antithesis of the point here, but whatever- is the great Dylan's Candy Bar, but in times like these Economy Candy is probably the #1 choice!)!Photo Credit: moosejawcoop.com
