Yeah, I know what I'm doing. And I'm writing about it. Right. Write.

The Sweets Capital of America

Do you all realize how many candies and other sweet things are made in Chicagoland?

Brachs, Tootsie Roll, Nabisco and Jelly Belly all have factories in the area. Others may, too, but these are the only ones I remember offhand from watching "Unwrapped" and "Top 5" on the Food Network. Considering how big Hershey is in Pennsylvania (especially in, well, Hershey), I'm surprised that the only food company most people could probably associate with Chicago is McDonald's (and even then, they might only know it's in Illinois).
