Why is Saltwater taffy candy imported in The Bahamas?
That makes sense. But why is it called Saltwater taffy?
The name "Saltwater taffy" is believed to have originated from a story in the late 1800s. A candy store in Atlantic City, New Jersey was flooded during a storm, and the saltwater from the ocean mixed with the taffy. The owner jokingly called it "Saltwater taffy," and the name stuck. Today, Saltwater taffy candy does not actually contain saltwater, but the name has become synonymous with the unique texture and flavors of this type of candy.
