Why is salt water taffy called salt water?!


Question:

Why is salt water taffy called salt water?


Answers:

The candy maker started making his taffy on the boardwalk in Atlantic City, then one night he left all his candy out with the windows open and all the salt air and mist got all over the taffy, he still sold the taffy to customers the next day and thats why people started calling it salt water taffy. Of course its just regular taffy, but the name stuck.
