Description
Dragon's Beard Candy has been described as an old-fashioned candy characterized by a "rich, sweet flavor" with a threaded, chewy texture. Its appearance resembles that of a white cocoon or pillow shape. It has a very high sugar content (29%), and may be considered additionally unhealthy due to its 4% saturated fat content. For comparison, comparing Dragon's Beard Candy with cotton candy, cotton candy has no fat content. Despite the fact that the candy is well-known traditionally, it is typically not popular to keep within a household since it primarily has a very short shelf life, due to its high sensitivity to moisture, as well as the tendency of the candy to melt when exposed to higher temperatures, including atypically warm weather conditions.

Famous quotes containing the word description:
“Once a child has demonstrated his capacity for independent functioning in any area, his lapses into dependent behavior, even though temporary, make the mother feel that she is being taken advantage of....What only yesterday was a description of the child’s stage in life has become an indictment, a judgment.”
—Elaine Heffner (20th century)
“The type of fig leaf which each culture employs to cover its social taboos offers a twofold description of its morality. It reveals that certain unacknowledged behavior exists and it suggests the form that such behavior takes.”
—Freda Adler (b. 1934)
“The Sage of Toronto ... spent several decades marveling at the numerous freedoms created by a “global village” instantly and effortlessly accessible to all. Villages, unlike towns, have always been ruled by conformism, isolation, petty surveillance, boredom and repetitive malicious gossip about the same families. Which is a precise enough description of the global spectacle’s present vulgarity.”
—Guy Debord (b. 1931)
