Wally Amos, Famous Amos Cookie Creator, Dies at 88
The recent passing of Wallace 'Wally' Amos at 88 marks the loss of a key figure in American entrepreneurship, celebrated for his Famous Amos chocolate chip cookies, which became a symbol of Black excellence and innovation. Before his cookie success, Amos had a notable career as the first Black talent agent at the William Morris Agency, representing musical legends. Meanwhile, Baker's Candies, known as 'Nebraska's Chocolate', has gained national popularity and pride among locals, expanding its reach beyond state lines. In another development, Palmer Candy Company has issued a Class I recall on certain products due to potential salmonella contamination, urging consumers to return the affected items. Additionally, residents of Walthamstow Village are pushing back against a new Gail's bakery, fearing it threatens local businesses and the neighborhood's unique identity. Lastly, the Berger cookie continues to be a beloved Baltimore specialty, with roots tracing back to the 19th century and a loyal following among locals.
