Candy

Candy, also known as sweets and lollies, is a confection that features sugar as a principal ingredient. The category, sugar confectionery, encompasses any sweet confection, including chocolate or chewing gum. Sugar-glazed vegetables, fruit, or nuts are considered candied.

Maize

Maize, also known as corn, is a tall stout grass that produces cereal grain. The leafy stalk of the plant gives rise to male inflorescences or tassels which produce pollen, and female inflorescences called ears. The ears yield grain, known as kernels or seeds. In modern commercial varieties, these are usually yellow or white; other varieties can be of many colors. Maize was domesticated by indigenous peoples in southern Mexico about 9,000 years ago from wild teosinte. Native Americans planted it alongside beans and squashes in the Three Sisters polyculture.
