I assume you're referring to the Louisiana Purchase.

France had plans to use its territory of Louisiana in assistance of its other colony of Haiti to create a large slave and sugarcane production company. However, with the abolition of slavery, this could not be achieved. France had also failed to convince many French citizens to migrate to its colonies, so now they were stuck with a barren wasteland. When the US approached France offering to buy New Orleans, France offered all of Louisiana (for a higher price) and the US accepted.

Perhaps you are referring to "bon bon"-- this is a small candy, usually covered with chocolate. The word comes from the French "bon"-- which means good. It referred to the fact that these candies tasted really good.
