abstract:Milk Duds are a caramel candy, historically enrobed with milk chocolate and currently enrobed with a confectionery coating made from cocoa and vegetable oil. They are manufactured by The Hershey Company, and merchandised in a yellow box.
Across the street is the Holloway's MilkDuds factory and every twenty minutes, some vent opens and exhales a cloud of powerful Milk Dud aroma, which wafts in the open windows.
The old-school breakfast joint sprang up in Route 66's heyday, and waitresses still deliver thick-cut French toast and plate-defying omelettes - along with free doughnut holes and MilkDuds - near the fabled road's starting point.
