Cotton candy was actually invented by a dentist.

Dentist William Morrison partnered with candy maker John C. Warton in 1897 to invent the cotton candy machine, which at the time was called. "Fairy Floss." We don't know if he made it just because, or if he made it to keep himself in business. If the latter is true, his plan worked.

The stuff's been giving kids cavities ever since.
