Prohibition Chocolate Industry

The Prohibition; A Lead to the Chocolate Industry:
It is post World War I and a new sense of joy filled the atmosphere. The war was finally over and a feeling of change was around everyone. The citizens have a new feeling of ravishment and society has changed. People are tapping their feet and humming to the tune of Jazz music, women find pride in the confidence they wear with their short hair and skirts, while other activist women are finding more pride in their right to vote . Men go to speakeasies which are secret bars the many people went to, and needed a password to enter due to prohibition, the banning of the manufacturing and selling of alcohol. People's attitude was not the only things that changed during the Roaring Twenties. As people,
In 1923, The Curtiss Candy Company, founded by Otto Schnering, desperately wanted this candy bar to be crowd-pleasing, so Otto Schnering marked the prices of the Baby Ruth bar to half the price of competing companies and even tied paper parachutes onto thousands of Baby Ruth bars, flying coast to coast, and dropping them over head, so it would be truly raining candy.

Grover Cleavland had not been in office for 24 years and dead for 13 years before the bar was created. This indicates that it would be rather odd and unusual to decide to haphazardly create a candy bar in honor of someone who has been dead for quite some time. The case hadn’t continued, indicating that Babe Ruth had not filed a case against the Curtiss Candy Company.
Many other candy bars were created in around the 10 years the Jazz Age lasted for, and almost all of them we still have around today available at, grocery stores, drug stores, convenience stores, etc. The conspiracy behind where the name Baby Ruth came from is still much of a conspiracy, but as common knowledge adds up, we can only assume it was truly names after one of the best baseball players of all times.
