He made a type of gum he named Taffy Tolu which quickly gained popularity in the Louisville area. Colgan has also been credited with inventing the process of adding flavor that lasts while chewing. During the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago, he sold his Taffy Tolu and created quite a buzz at the Fair. It was also here where William Wrigley, Jr., came across John Colgan’s chewing gum and while Wrigley’s Gum took off, John Colgan faded into history.<br /><br />https://americanhistory.si.edu/collections/search/object/nmah_1379421#:~:text=John%20Colgan%20of%20Louisville%2C%20Kentucky,popularity%20in%20the%20Louisville%20area.Bicycle Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13389553121647269895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-9472101404181565352023-07-05T13:49:57.770-05:002023-07-05T13:49:57.770-05:00Don't tell school custodians that gum is not p...Don't tell school custodians that gum is not popular any longer...Bicycle Riderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13389553121647269895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-24227385073706805742023-07-05T13:40:12.673-05:002023-07-05T13:40:12.673-05:00Agree with that.
