What's the best tourist junk food you've ever eaten?
Probably any of the candy you can get at Stuckey's. Their pecan logs are
heavenly, and so is just about anything else they do with pecans! Stuckey's is
really a legend in the South. A fellow named W. S. Stuckey opened his first
store in Eastman, Georgia, around 1934, just selling pecans. Later, he sold
candy, and his business boomed. He kept opening more and more locations all
along the major tourist routes, until by the early 1970's there were over 300
Stuckey's stores. They had beautiful blue-green colored roofs and
yellow-and-red signs that really made them stand out.
