I think it’s safe to say that pretty much every Candy Addict among us would have been thrilled to be a 1st grader learning math with a fun, yet delicious learning tool - gummi worms! Well, at the Museum Magnet School of the Science Museum of Minnesota in St. Paul, that’s just what a class got to do.
It turns out they also learned some interesting facts about gummi worms. Not exactly tempered steel, but a single worm can hold a whopping 120 pennies, and can stretch to 9 inches long. I guess that kinda explains why they can be so darn hard to chew sometimes, huh?

This is absolutely awesome. I would LOVE to see a series of experiments involving gummi worms! =D
