Crows are a licorice candy identical in shape and texture to Dots.
Their mascot is a crow with a top hat and cane.
Crows were invented in the 1890s by confectioners Henrique Cataldi and Joseph Maison.
There is an urban legend that Crows were to be called "Black Rose", but the printer misheard the name as "Black Crows" and printed wrappers with the wrong name on them.
[1] In 1972, Tootsie Roll Industries acquired the Crows brand by purchasing the Mason Division of the Candy Corporation of America.
