The Baby Ruth candy bar was actually named after the daughter of President Grover Cleveland, not the daughter of President Franklin D. Roosevelt as many people believe. The candy bar was introduced in 1921 by the Curtiss Candy Company and was named after Ruth Cleveland, who was the eldest daughter of President Cleveland.
Despite the fact that the candy bar was named after Ruth Cleveland, the Curtiss Candy Company tried to capitalize on the popularity of baseball player Babe Ruth by claiming that the candy bar was named after him. This led to a legal battle between the candy company and Babe Ruth, which the candy company ultimately won.
Today, the Baby Ruth candy bar is still a popular treat enjoyed by people of all ages. It consists of a nougat center, peanuts, and caramel covered in milk chocolate. The combination of sweet and salty flavors makes it a favorite among many candy enthusiasts.
Whether you enjoy a Baby Ruth candy bar while watching a baseball game or as a sweet treat during the day, you can thank President Grover Cleveland's daughter for inspiring its name. Next time you bite into a Baby Ruth, remember the history behind its name and enjoy every delicious bite!
So, the next time you're craving something sweet and satisfying, reach for a Baby Ruth candy bar and indulge in its delicious combination of flavors. And now that you know the true story behind its name, you can impress your friends with your knowledge of presidential history and candy trivia!
