Hi friends, happy Thursday! Welcome to the Dark History podcast. Some things are just meant to be together. Peanut butter and jelly. Milk and cookies. Graham crackers and masturbation? Yep, you read that right. Because without masturbation we never would have graham crackers. In today’s episode, we’ll talk all about how one man’s mission to stop people from whacking it, led to the creation of the tasty, cinnamon-y treat. Don't be a whacker, grab a cracker. I appreciate you for coming by and tune in next week for more Dark History. Want some cool Bailey Merch?
