PEZ

PEZ - its the candy that everyone loves to never eat. How did this chalky and underwhelming pastille become a ubiquitous and enduring collectible? What does PEZ even mean? What do a witch, JFK and Seinfeld have in common? Em dispenses all the answers to these questions and more! Kait demonstrates the contrarian nature of pez appreciation; nostalgic love simultaneous with a harsh critique of the candy and it’s avid collectors. Join us as we unwrap, carefully piece together and share the story of a baking powder dynasty, a boom in cigarette popularity and a holocaust survivor.
