ANSWER: WHAT MIGHT YOU CALL COWS WHEN THEY QUIT MAKING NUTRITIOUS, WHITE-COLORED LIQUID? MILK DUDS.
MILK DUDS
WHAT THEY ARE
Milk Duds are small chocolate-coated candies with a dense, chewy caramel center. Their uneven shape and stubborn chew are part of the appeal.
WHERE THE NAME CAME FROM
The original goal was a perfectly round milk caramel. When that failed, the misshapen results were labeled “duds” and sold anyway.
TEXTURE AND TASTE
The chocolate shell cracks first, followed by a slow-softening caramel that sticks around long after the bite.
HOW PEOPLE EAT THEM
Some let them warm before chewing. Others power through. Either way, they demand patience.
MOVIE THEATER STATUS
Milk Duds became a theater staple because they last longer than most candy without melting instantly.
FUN FACT
Milk Duds are heavier than they look, which is why they drop straight to the bottom of popcorn boxes.
