It was wholesome, cheap, friendly, and fostered a craft. Candy is industrialized now, so you don't find craftsmen even at boutique shops. At most, you'll find taffy pullers and fudge cutters who can't answer basic questions about the chemistry, tradition, or tradeoffs involved in their business. But information is also industralized, so you can find most of that online, instead.
