Seroogy's Candy in Green Bay is celebrating 125 years in our community. Joe Seroogy joins Jim & John and tells us why Seroogy's has been around all this time. Joe says it's the quality of the candy they make, using the same recipes all these years later. The Seroogy family came to the United States from Lebanon, mainly to stay alive, and Joe's great-grandfather started the business with an ice cream/soda shop that sold hotdogs and chili. That business evolved into the candy business it is today. Then Teri Barr joins us with another Slice of Wisconsin. Today, she features a song by Shari Sarazin called "Oh Wisconsin, Land Of My Dreams." Then John and Teri take a trip down memory lane and discuss their time working together in TV.
