Tootsie Rolls in war? Yep, itâs a realâand wildly unexpectedâpart of military history. During the Korean War, U.S. Marines requested mortar rounds, but due to a misunderstood radio message, they received boxes of Tootsie Rolls instead. What seemed like a mistake turned into a lifesaver: the chewy candies were used to plug bullet holes in fuel lines, repair gear, and provide emergency energy in freezing conditions.
This surprising story of how a sweet treat became a battlefield tool shows the bizarre and brilliant ways soldiers adapted under pressure. Itâs a tale of resilience, innovation, and⌠chocolate?
If you're into crazy history facts, military hacks, or unexpected war stories, this one's a must-watch.

This panda is done for the dayâwatch as it hilariously goes on strike and has to be physically removed by its keeper. Lazy or legendary?
