The PEZ Outlaw is a hit on NETFLIX and has propelled PEZ, once again, back into the cultural conversation. Austrian food executive Edward Haas III didn’t intend for his mint to become a candy, much less a toy. But as it turned out, PEZ became the TOY THAT GIVES YOU CANDY! To a kid, what could be better than that!? Its evolution from a mint for smoking cessation to a candy dispensing sensation is covered in this edition of Where's the Fun from?
A very special acknowledgment goes to the PEZ Collector's website: www.collector.at for sharing so many photos with us for this video. THANK YOU, HANS!
