I don't know SER, that number seems to be alot.

Look at the numbers...

83 million a day, if running 3 shifts 24/7/365, would be approx 28 million per shift.

This would equate to 3.5 million produced per hour. That is mind-boggling.

Who eats all this crap? Are they stocking up for Halloween? Do they sell them to pools for them to use as pranks? What, I don't know, the numbers don't seem logical.

Someone help me, this is like looking at one of those framed pictures that is suppose to move or something.

I don't eat them as much anymore as once you get a stale one and almost break your tooth, you kind of give up.

Jed - I think you might be right.

The goodie industry is mind boggling.

Ice Cream, holy crap, it is amazing all the ice cream bars and sandwiches produced daily, quarts etc.

One of my most favorites is a Orange Dreamsicle
