Best Answer

The first PEZ (candy) was invented in 1927 in Vienna, Austria by a candyman named Edward Haas III. Edward Haas came up with the idea for this new peppermint candy. It was an adult breath mint that he decided to market as an alternative for smoking. Back then, PEZ, the brick-shaped candies were carried around in pocket tins.

The first PEZ dispenser was invented in 1947, naturally, looked like a cigarette lighter.

The word "PEZ" comes from the German word for peppermint, which is phefferminz. You take the first, middle, and last letters of the German word - PheffErminZ, put them together and you get "PEZ".

How do you refill a Pez dispenser and how many Pez candies can one dispenser fit?

There are numerous techniques to refill a PEZ dispenser. My favorite is this:1. Pull up on the head of the dispenser so it sticks in the "loading position".2. Carefully unwrap a roll so one side/end of the PEZ candy is exposed.3. Line the candy up with the loading slot and push into place.4. Remove the wrapper all the way, close your dispenser and enjoy!One roll (12 pieces) of PEZ candy fits in a dispenser.Remember to never, NEVER, eat the PEZ candy straight from the wrapper. It's PEZ heresy.
