Ring Pops were invented as an alternative to thumb sucking!
Chances are if you were ever a baby, you sucked your thumb. However, some people never kick the habit. This was the case for Frank Richard’s daughter. He noticed that she was always sucking her thumb, even as she continued to grow older. He came up with a solution. He designed a candy specifically for her known as a Ring Pop!
He figured that if he provided her with a tastier alternative to sucking her thumb, she would stop. Fortunately for Frank Richard’s, he made a delicious candy in the process that we all love. Unfortunately for Frank Richard’s, his daughter never stopped sucking her thumb.
