'Mary Jane' is a peanut butter and molasses flavored taffy-type candy with peanut butter in the center, originally made in 1914 by The Charles N. Miller Co., later by Stark Candy Co., and now manufactured by Necco. It is similar in style and packaging to Bit-O-Honey. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Jane_(candy) Bit-O-Honey first appeared in 1924 and was made by the Schutter-Johnson Company of Chicago, Illinois, United States. Bit-O-Honey was a new kind of candy bar consisting of six pieces of candy wrapped in wax paper and then packaged in a wrapper. The candy consists of almond bits embedded in a honey-flavored taffy which makes for a long-chewing candy. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit-O-Honey Oct 21 10, 9:30 AM
