“Maybe this one is a little more like a Twilight Zone episode, pulled out like taffy to stretch to full length, but that taffy still tastes pretty good.

Also, I get saltwater taffy at boardwalks, but why is it a thing in every mountain town in Colorado? “We’ve got salt water taffy!” Why?
People are obsessed with the local water making things work. New York bagels work because of New York water. Coors is all about mountain springs.
You’ll even hear that people have imported water from wherever to make their pizza crust or whatever authentic.
I think it’s a bunch of horseshit, but whatever.
To bring this back around, Dead & Buried takes place in a town that seems like it would boast about saltwater taffy and have the saltwater to back it up.
Probably fudge, too. Fudge is a whole ‘nother deal. Let’s not get me started on fudge.”
