About Milk dud

Milk Duds are bite-sized chocolate-covered caramel candies originating from the United States, first introduced in 1928 by the F. Hoffman & Company. Their name comes from the creator's inability to produce perfectly round pieces, deeming them "duds." Made primarily from ingredients like sugar, corn syrup, vegetable oil, skim milk, cocoa powder, and whey, these candies offer a chewy texture and rich flavor that appeals to sweet-tooth cravings. While they provide quick energy due to their high sugar content, Milk Duds lack significant nutritional value, containing mostly simple carbohydrates and minimal protein or fiber. They are calorie-dense and contain saturated fats, so consumption should be moderate, especially for those monitoring their sugar or fat intake. Milk Duds are considered a treat rather than a healthy food choice, best enjoyed occasionally as part of a balanced diet.
