Thanks...Contractor,What did you say?Accept some Candy-Chan.Thanks-Candy-Chan.Ca...Candy-Chan...There's no special reason wh-....Oh yes, Ibaraki.I've gotten some Candy-Chan*, so I'm giving you some.
In the Kansai area, Candy (Ame, ้ฃด) is often attached with the "chan" honorific, especially around Kyoto and Osaka. There are a few reasons as to why this naming became the norm.
For speakers to be able to differentiate between Rain (Ame, ้จ) and Candy (Ame, ้ฃด)
People around the Kansai province have a tendency to stick "-san" to food, such as ใ็ฒฅใใ (O-kai-san, ใ็ฒฅใใ, Porridge, (Osaka dialect, with "Kayu" being the standard pronunciation)), ใ่ใใ(o-imo-san, Sweet potato). This kind of naming scheme originated and spread from Kyoto, and Candy was also called "Ame-san" at some point. However, since a lot of people bring candy almost everywhere with them, it was changed to "chan" for easier familiarization.
