National Hard Candy Day and National Oatmeal Muffin Day in USA

Candy is simply made by dissolving sugar in water. When the syrup is cool enough to handle, it can be folded, rolled, or molded into the shapes desired. The different heating levels determine the types of candy: Hot temperatures make hard candy, medium heat will make soft candy and cool temperatures make chewy candy. One of the oldest hard candies is barley sugar which was made with barley grains. Peppermints and lemon drops were two of the first loved and most famous hard candies.

The American muffin or muffin or Quick bread muffin originated in the United States during the mid-19th century.

Muffins provide a weight loss opportunity if the right ingredients are used. Because oatmeal muffins use oats that are high in fiber, they are one of the best weight loss breakfast options available. The fiber will help keep people full for longer so just one muffin is all it takes to get and stay full. With a healthy homemade version created, there aren't as many calories or as much fat as most muffin options out there.
