So in the past, people used to adulterate the sweets with plaster, different dusts, and stuff from the pharmacy. The price of sugar was too high, due to taxes and manufacturing prices. The pharmacy mixed up the arsenic with the normal adulterants for sweets. It was sold on Halloween in 1858, about 200 people were poisoned, but because it was similar to cholera, people at first didn't think it was the sweets till about a day later. It wasn't until 1860 an adulterant law was passed and 1878 a sugar tax was repealed that the adulterated sweets stopped.

I just looked this up. The arsenic was added by mistake. At the time it was common to add random ingredients to bulk out the product, in this case it should have been powdered gypsum (basically plaster), but the supplier mistakenly supplied poison! 😮 There was reportedly enough arsenic in each sweet to kill 2 adults. 200 people were poisoned & 20 died. There was us thinking we had it bad with mirco-plastics!

No one was ultimately prosecuted for it because it became completely obvious that no one had any malice in the event, the last person they tried to prosecute was the vendor of the materials (for not marking his stock correctly), he was off sick for a few days & gave some misunderstood directions to a young assistant on what to supply the sweet maker. Lessons were learned & rules were made after this incident. Still heartbreaking that youngsters died from eating something that was probably a weekend treat, a couple of sweets..... I think the youngest was 18 months....

Humbugs are usually made from a mixture of sugar and glycerin (sometimes gum replaces glycerin) and a flavoring agent, such as peppermint oil, which is then heated in a pan until the sugar melts and becomes sticky. The mixture is then poured out, and stretched and folded many times. A little color is added to the mixture, and during the folding process the colored parts separate out in layers. The mixture is finally rolled into a long, thin cylinder and sliced, and the lozenges take on a stripped appearance. Joseph Neal probably followed a recipe similar to the one described above, except for one notable difference-he didn’t use pure, unadulterated sugar. Back in the 19th century, when this story takes place, sugar was an expensive commodity, so it was not uncommon for confectioners to replace some of the sugar with ‘daff’-powdered limestone and plaster of Paris-to keep the cost of production low. Daff didn’t add to the sweetness of the finished product, but it kept the bulk intact enabling sweet sellers to keep their prices high. On 30 October 1858, Joseph Neal sent one his employee, James Archer, to collect daff from his druggist Charles Hodgson, whose pharmacy was 3 miles away at Baildon Bridge in Shipley. On arriving, Neal’s assistant discovered that Hodgson was ill in bed. The shop was instead staffed by an inexperienced apprentice named William Goddard. On receiving Archer’s request for daff, Goddard nipped out back to check with Hodgson, and was told that the daff was “in a cask in a corner of the attic.” Goddard found the cask and dutifully scooped out 12 pounds of the white powder and handed it to Archer. Unfortunately, there was more than one cask in the corner, and one of them contained arsenic trioxide, a toxic chemical used to treat cancer, psoriasis and syphilis. Goddard chose the wrong cask, and since both daff and arsenic trioxide looked somewhat alike, neither Goddard nor Archer was aware of the deadly sale they just made. James Archer handed the lethal package to James Appleton, another one of Neal’s employee, who actually made the sweets. Appleton mixed all twelve pounds of arsenic trioxide with sugar and gum to create at least forty pounds of peppermint humbugs. Exposure to the poison caused Appleton to fall sick with vomiting and pain in his hands and arms for several days after. At the time, he merely presumed he had caught a stomach bug. However, Appleton did notice that the humbugs looked different, an observation that Hardaker shared when the finished product was brought to him. Hardaker popped one into his mouth, probably to see whether they tasted different, and promptly fell ill. Surprisingly, like Appleton, Hardaker put the blame for his sudden illness to something else that he had eaten. That night, Hardaker sold five pounds of the sweets. By the next morning, two local children, aged eight and 11, were dead. Initially, the deaths were attributed to cholera, a disease that was rampant in Europe. But when more and more people began to take ill, a police investigation began. Suspicion eventually fell upon Hardaker’s humbugs. A chemical analysis of the sweets revealed each contained enough poison to kill two grown men. Officers and bell ringers spent the next day and night rushing around the district trying to warn as many people as possible about the danger. The alert likely saved countless lives. However, by then already seven adults and 13 children were dead and at least two hundred others were seriously ill. The youngest child to die was just 17 months old. Charges were brought against Goddard, Neal and Hodgson, but all three were acquitted of manslaughter because the prosecution were unable to prove if any law had been broken. Hardaker returned to the confectionery business after recovering from his own illness.

MsBamafanatic, Thank you for this information! One thing still bothers me is was the "daff" even safe to ingest? You would think that plaster of paris or limestone would harm the kidneys. There must have been no oversight of the candy business if they could add just anything to the candy just to keep the price high. I guess corruption began a long time ago.

I wanted some mint humbugs last week, but they were out of stock. Disappointing..... Our family had a tour of a rock factory and watched them use a pulling machine. They then assembled the striped rock, very much like the humbugs were assembled, then stretched it out. However the resulting thin stripy rock was cut into sticks about a foot long, rather than the humbugs (which are cut into pieces about an inch long). To anyone who's not British, kids used to bring back sticks of rock for their friends whenever they had a holiday at the seaside. The rock had the name of the resort written through the middle.

A taffy pulling contest at St. Peter’s isn’t the same as a Peter pulling contest at St. Taffy’s. Thank you, I’m here all night

Part of this process can still be witnessed today in Blackpool whilst making "Blackpool Rock" fascinating to see them layout the lettering on the "sausage" before throwing it in the conical rollers.

Back in the day "Salt Water Taffy" at Nantasket Beach, Hull Ma. 🇺🇸 home of "The Giant Coaster" had that first machine in the corner window. I never thought the candy was all that, but after watching that machine doing its thing right on the Boardwalk, I always bought a box to bring home.

I want someone to follow me around and make fun of me in this accent all day, describing every move I'm doing with incredible detail and contempt
