Encyclopedia > Laffy Taffy

The name refers to both the texture of the taffy as well as its comedic character: the outside of each wrapper has at least one joke. These jokes are contributed by someone who writes to the company, and are usually puns. For example: "What do you call a cow with a twitch? -- Beef Jerky," or "What's an owl's favorite subject? -- Owlgebra." Some jokes are purely bizzare, such as "What is Labor Day? -- That's when mommies have their babies." These jokes are usually sent in by children who are credited on the wrapper. Laffy Taffy used to come in thick, square shaped pieces, but today, it is sold in thinner, rectangular shaped pieces. It is also made with artificial flavors.
