Cotton candy.

COTTON CANDY. Also known as candy floss or spun sugar. We've got recipes for this dating as early as 1769, people. Machine-spinning it was invented by a dentist (which just figures) and a confectioner in 1897, and was a HUGE hit at 1904 World's Fair, making it much less labour-intensive.

I'm not saying he'd have necessarily have had it, given tightness of money and near-complete lack of nutritional value. I'm just saying, he'd probably heard of it. Yeesh!
