My college freshman chemistry professor used fudge as an example of the chemical principal of "Supersaturation ". And YES he made delicious fudge for the class to taste.

Mackinac Island fudge is absolutely incredible.

Mackinac Island has fudge but so much more. The waters of Huron, the gentle plod of horses, no cars, wonderful bike routes, fabulous history, beautiful sunsets and quaint as well as large accomodations. One of my favorite places of all time

My mom made a tradition of making fudge any day we had 2” or more of snow (in MN & SD). My BIL watched 40 miles away, and drove my sister into town when it snowed. One of our best memories.

Fudge is always HISTORY at my house.

My family is from Michigan but now live all over the country. For holidays and special occasions I send Murdick's fudge. It's always a welcome gift. The chocolate walnut tastes just like my grandmother used to make.

Fudge is an upper Mid-West/Northern Rocky Mountain thing. My Dad got some every year from Christmas via Airmail and it was gone before breakfast.

I liked the fudge my mom made. She used the Hershey’s Cocoa recipe, using a cast iron pot to cook the concoction. It had to be made when it was cool/cold and the humidity was low. Bringing the pot outside at right moment to help it “set” was crucial. I truly miss it.

Our family have been going up to the Island for decades! Nobody leaves the area without the Fudge! It is the best we've ever had.

Never been a fudge fan, but this is was fun!

Have NOT been to Mackinaw Island yet BUT I have been to Mackinaw City, St. Ignace, Traverse City, East Tawas, Frankenmuth & a place called Saugatuck, MI which all of those places have fudge!!!

Thank God for KZfaq am I slept in today but I still can watch CBS say this morning 40 years maybe only missed a couple times the show

Faith and Fudge. How clever, and sweet. 🍫🍫🍫🍫🍫

Vassar was once a Presbyterian faith based school. Sugar was seen as a Sin, as was Chocolate, Soda, and Pastries. Women were expected to keep slim for their man. This what why a Birthday cake were once such a HUGE thing in a home.

Fact! A day without chocolate is a day without sunshine.

Thank you for this delightful segment

I don't like fudge, but I love this episode.

Just a dumb european strolling through.... I have never heard of fudge before, i only knew it was some kind of soft texture in a sweet. Has this ever left the U.S. ? We have Nougat and Marzipan here so maybe that need is filled already? Love from Germany ❤

fudge is really easy to make it is so delicious

This is important.

God I love fudge 😋😊

Murdick’s is my favorite - first tried on Martha’s Vineyard

Fudge in your coffee? To each their own. Making fudge as a form of rebellion, interesting!

I LOVE FUDGE

I order this fudge several times a year. Delicious!

I love fudge, but one of the most disgusting flavors of fudge I ever tried was Key Lime...it was awful. Some things are not meant for fudge

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ our Island

I’ve been there 2016, it was my first time in the USA 🇺🇸 as a tourist after I landed in Detroit at first, now I’m thousands miles away here in Qatar 🇶🇦 craving some 😔

I love making fudge. My favorite is peanut butter

Love it. Go get some Mackinac Island fudge… NOW!!!! Lol

Oooh that looks so good! Shame I can't have sugar!! It just messes me up too bad :(

Another great story brought to us by Faith. 🥰

Theres a place in Philadelphia that makes great fudge. Shane Confectionery. its been at the same location for over a century.

Nice story however you left out a very important fact. The ideal latitude and atmospheric conditions on Mackinac Island is the greatest contributor to the successful production of fudge. It is at this lattitude, and at the analogous one in the southern hemisphere, that defines this zone as the "fudge belt" and it so happens that Mackinac Island is at its epicenter along with many other ideal locations throughout the belt.

I love fudge, but I can only eat it in moderation.

Yum!

Do they Pack the Fudge also?

Fudge is more important than a train derailment...

They have shops on another island…Martha’s Vineyard!

Just think of how many of our common dishes were result of the mistake.

I trained with that dude back in the day!

Maine has the best fudge

It looked like some dr. Fudged the reporters face

💚💚💚

They also pack fudge in Green Bay, hence the team name.

Looks good but way too sugary

Faith needs to do something about those brows

I love chocolate, but I’ve never been a fan of fudge.

I also know where the Milk and Lemon Aid are made.

Fudge!

Mmmmm, doooonut.....I mean fuuuuudge. 😆

3:19 Noice..!!

As a certified fudge packer I know a thing or two about fudge.

At least they don’t use corn syrup

Two ingredient recipe condensed milk and chocolate chips

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I never knew people in the north had fudge.

Fudge brownies heart shaped valentine's

The thumbnail looks like meatloaf, not fudge

A mask needs to be worn to prevent workers' saliva from spraying around.

There are fudge recipes from England in the 1700s. Like Apple pie, it's not American.

🍫❤️💖👍

Cars not allowed in mackinaw idland

Where tom cruise??

@jcs3330 4 minutes ago (edited) Lived in Greenwich visiting the market on regular occasions. Fudge has always been my 'go-to' confectionary of choice over any other since I was a child. (I have always liked fudge, toffee and caramel tasting types of confectionary hence the liking of fudge. We know that sugar is one of the main ingredients, hence so many examples in stores or marketed has 'handmade' or "exclusive quality fudge" etc, seem to fail. (including those fudge makers who make it on site in front of you and that which is sold in exclusive stores etc). In the years of occasionally treating myself I have only ever found 4 fudge makers that have mastered this incredibly difficult taste balance. Two being handmade in and two being what fudge makers call 'processed fudge' (ironically being much better then the majority that claim to be/or are 'original, handmade or with top quality ingredients". As said, to get a fudge that 'traditionally' contains so much sugar yet does not taste overly sweet or sickly is quite a difficult achievement, and I have sampled a lot of so-called 'artisan' fudge makers which fail this 'ideal' balance and produce highly sweet fudge

2:30 so women can pack fudge too

Ah yes. The appropriate break from shooting down of non-alien 🛸

You sure this isn't the history of meat loaf?

I'm from Michigan and I think fudge is gross. It's an overly-sugary slimy paste that doesn't exactly taste like chocolate. Fudge is the epitome of 'Murican.

Not a fudge fan.
