One Thing Does Not Belong in This 1950s Candy Store: Answer

Did you get it right?

This candy-store puzzle is asking for one mismatch, not two. Most of the counter belongs in a 1950s candy shop, but one label gives itself away.

One Thing Does Not Belong in This 1950s Candy Store: Answer

The Answer

The correct answer is: The modern Nutrition Facts style label on one candy bag is the item that does not belong..

Here is why

  1. The glass jars, penny candy trays, paper bags, old register, and shop counter fit the period.
  2. Look closely at the printed candy bags rather than the jars first.
  3. The modern Nutrition Facts style label is the one detail from a later era.

Why people miss it

The label looks like ordinary package printing, so many people pass over it unless they think about what labels looked like in the 1950s.
