Abstract:

Tommy Thekkekandam and Dr. Sindhura "Jenny" Citineni are the Durham couple behind Tom & Jenny's caramels, which they sell in four-ounce packages at area food stores and in local dental offices. The candies are made with the plant-based xylitol, which can reduce cavity-based bacteria and enamel-eroding acidity.
