Saltwater taffy is a soft, chewy candy made from sugar, corn syrup, water, butter, salt, and flavorings, with starch or gelatin often added for texture. Despite its name, it doesn't contain seawater; the "salt" in the recipe enhances flavor. Originating in the late 19th century from Atlantic City, New Jersey, it quickly became a classic American sweet, often associated with beachside boardwalks. Taffy comes in a variety of flavors, from fruity to creamy, offering a nostalgic treat for candy lovers. While fun to eat, saltwater taffy is high in sugar and calories, making it a less healthy snack option. It contains little to no essential nutrients and should be enjoyed in moderation. For those seeking a sweet indulgence, it provides satisfyingly stretchy and colorful bites, but it’s best considered an occasional treat rather than a dietary staple.
