    FYI. eBay was started as a site to sell Pez. eBay started in 1995 as an idea for collectors to buy and sell Pez dispensers. Founder Pierre Omidyar began eBay as a favor to his girlfriend.

    2. Autographer John Ratzenberger (‘Cheers’ fame) was born & raised in neighboring Bridgeport CT.
    3. The PEZ motorcycle was created by Orange County Choppers out of California.
    4. Yes, it often rains A LOT here in CT, especially

    I LOVE PEZ DISPENSERS!
    1) Eating them one by one discourages eating too much candy/sugar
    2) The dispensers kept the candy pieces organized and fresher then just in the wrappers
    3) The dispensers are a cool, cheap way to start a collection (if collecting things is YOUR thing)! :D

    A very fun and nice museum. Makes you wonder how many different dispensers they have and how many more will be issued in the future. Maybe, in some near future, they bring out a traveller series with one rare but very much loved item: The Carpetbagger. Wouldn't that be nice!

    Looks like they have many new displays since I visited over 10 years ago. The video should have covered the manufacturing process, which is on display for your edification. They likely still have the Buy a Bucket option in the gift shop, where you can dispense as much of any flavor you wish into a small bucket for a fixed price. Also T shirts and such are available. BTW, I still eat PEZ, and since childhood resorted to not using the dispenser (too difficult to load).

    In the UK it was always a mixed bag for Pez, I had but have long lost a Batman one and had briefly but sold a modern Cap America but you could never get the cool designs and the only flavours were ones like that sickly cola in the UK, even now I'd love a monster one or a truck filled with peppermint Pez.
