Origin stories

Gummies, in general, have an interesting history. They were first introduced by Haribo, a German confectionery company, in the early 20th century. The gummy bear, a form of gummy candy that many of us are familiar with, was invented by Hans Riegel Sr., a confectioner from Bonn, Germany. He was inspired by the trained bears seen at street festivities and markets in Europe through to the 19th century. The little gummy bears quickly became a big hit, and the rest, as they say, is history. As for the marijuana gummies, they are a relatively recent innovation, popularized with the legalization of marijuana in certain parts of the world. They are a discrete and convenient way to consume marijuana, and their popularity continues to grow.
