However, their ability to extract energy from cellulose digestion is less efficient than in ruminants. [2] Herbivores digest cellulose by microbial fermentation. Monogastric herbivores which can digest cellulose nearly as well as ruminants are called hindgut fermenters, while ruminants are called foregut fermenters. [3]
Candy sticks were the subject of an 1885 song called "The Candy Stick": [6] Oh the candy stick striped like a gay barber’s pole, Was a luscious delight of my infantile soul, Ev’ry penny I earn’d in my little palm burn’d, Till away to the store on the corner I stole, For the candy stick striped like a gay barber’s pole.
Commercial brown sugar contains from 4.5% molasses (light brown sugar) to 6.5% molasses (dark brown sugar) based on total volume. Based on total weight, regular commercial brown sugar contains up to 10% molasses. Buttered syrup [1] Cane sugar (cane juice, cane juice crystals), contains a high concentration of sucrose. [1]
Sugar glass is made by dissolving sugar in water and heating it to at least the "hard crack" stage (approx. 150 °C / 300 °F) in the candy making process. Glucose or corn syrup is used to prevent the sugar from recrystallizing and becoming opaque, by disrupting the orderly arrangement of the molecules.
Here are 10 fabulous facts about the classic candy. #10 -- The world's largest lollipop was made in 2012. The confectioner behind the job was See's Candies of California, and their creation ...
Cellulose is a polymer made with repeated glucose units bonded together by beta-linkages. Humans and many animals lack an enzyme to break the beta-linkages, so they do not digest cellulose. Certain animals, such as termites can digest cellulose, because bacteria possessing the enzyme are present in their gut. Cellulose is insoluble in water.
[2] and the cellulose is a polymer of six-carbon sugar C 6 H 12 O 6 . [3] Cellulose fibers are considered to be a plant’s structural building blocks and are tightly bound to lignin, but the biomass can be deconstructed using Acid hydrolysis, enzymatic hydrolysis, organosolv dissolution, autohydrolysis or supercritical hydrolysis.

A hard candy (American English), or boiled sweet (British English), is a sugar candy prepared from one or more sugar-based syrups that is heated to a temperature of 160 °C (320 °F) to make candy. Among the many hard candy varieties are stick candy such as the candy cane , lollipops , rock , aniseed twists , and bêtises de Cambrai .
