Minn. man receives candy 60 years after complaint
ST. CLOUD, Minn. – It took 60 years, but a Minnesota man finally has his free candy bars.
Dave Bell, 74, of St. Cloud received a package of candy last week after sending an email reminding Pearson’s Candy Co. in St. Paul of the complaint he made as a teenager.
In 1952, Bell was 14 when he bit into a nut roll and discovered a twig. He tells the St. Cloud Times he sent a letter to Pearson’s “to obviously get some candy.”
