A Ganong Bros. Candy maker, Frank Sparhawk, invented the “Chicken bone."
candy in 1885. The confection was in fact Ganong’s first signature candy for
Canada’s oldest candy company, located in the small town of St. Stephen in
Southern New Brunswick.

Their story starts in 1912 with a Boston inventor named Lawrence Luellen, who
crafted a two-piece cup made out of a blank of paper. He joined the American
Water Supply Company, the brainchild of a Kansas-born Harvard dropout, Hugh
Moore. The two began dispensing individual servings of water for a penny—one
cent for a five-ounce cup from a tall, clumsy porcelain water cooler. Soon they
were the Individual Drinking Cup Company of New York and had renamed their
sole product the Health Kup. The name was changed to “Dixie Cup” in 1919.
