Too many sites focus exclusively on selling and forget that the customer experience is what makes an online shopping experience memorable."
As the founder of McKeesport Candy Co, Ernest Prince, said in his 1955 keynote speech to the National Candy Wholesalers Association, "To continue progress, the candy wholesaler must find better ways to serve the mass work. Two very important ways in which he is better equipped is the quality of customer service and availability of merchandise." "I couldn't have come up with a better strategy" says Jon Prince.

A favorite of WW II soldiers. Good reason. Less sweet than modern candies, the mixture of dark chocolates, molasses and peanuts is just right, in my opinion.
I have loved these candies since I was a girl and I'm now 79. I ordered the boxes for my daughter who continues the love of this candy. Yummmmmm.......
I never received this order, got the raspberry candy and am happy with them but am very disappointed that the chocolate filled candy must have gotten lost.
