The argument presented is valid but not sound. It follows the structure of a syllogism, but the premises do not reflect a factual relationship. Just because taffy is a sticky substance, it does not mean that all sticky substances are necessarily yucky, making the conclusion unreliable.

What is a taffy pull?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A taffy pull is a social or family gathering in which the participants make taffy. Taffy is a boiled sugar candy which is "pulled" to make the candy chewy. "Pulling" is done by hand usually (or by machine in commercial candy production), and by forming the recently cooked and slightly cooled candy into a rope like piece. This piece is then folded in half, given a spiral twist, and then pulled by grabbing the ends and stretching the piece. Its then folded again and repeated. Pulling folds air into the warm candy and makes it fluffy. By folding in air and increasing the volume of the candy it becomes chewy.

Is it safe to swallow laffy taffy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

nope. It's just caramel with flavorings. However, it's really really sticky, and L.T stuck between your teeth can be a major pain. Don't eat it with braces, and yes, you will get caught trying to eat it in class. I would know :) It has 160 calories in one bar of L.T and 20 of those are fat. So it's pretty much equivalent to eating 1 1/2 granola bars.
