Goody's Powder is sold primarily in the southern United States. For many years, the face of Goody's has been NASCAR legend Richard Petty, who appears in advertisements for the brand. In 2013, the brand brought on NASCAR's most popular driver, Dale Earnhardt, Jr., to join Petty as spokesperson for the brand.

The History Of Little Goody Two-Shoes
''The History of Little Goody Two-Shoes'' is a children's story published by John Newbery in London in 1765. The story popularized the phrase "goody two-shoes" as a descriptor for an excessively virtuous person or do-gooder. Plot ''Goody Two-Shoes'' is a variation of the Cinderella story. The fable tells of Goody Two-Shoes, the nickname of a poor orphan girl named Margery Meanwell, who goes through life with only one shoe. When a rich gentleman gives her a complete pair, she is so happy that she tells everyone that she has "two shoes". Later, Margery becomes a teacher and marries a rich widower. This serves as proof that her virtue has been rewarded and her wealth earned, a popular theme in children's literature of the era.

Goody Two Shoes (song)
"Goody Two Shoes" is the debut solo single by Adam Ant, released on 7 May 1982. History There are two versions of the cover. The first has Adam and the Ants across the top of the sleeve and the later version just Adam Ant. This is probably due to the confusion around the timing of Ant going solo, particularly as the song was performed by three fifths of the band Ant, Pirroni and Hughes. There are also two different studio versions of the song. The UK 7" single version is notably different from the re-recorded version which appears on ''Friend or Foe''. The single version has a different, more reverberating drum track. The ''Friend or Foe'' version, instead of Hughes on drums, features Bogdan Wiczling, drummer on the rest of the album. Ant performed "Goody Two Shoes" at ''Top of the Pops'' on 20 May 1982. B-side Ant sometimes recorded new versions of his pre-1980 compositions for the B-side of his singles. For this single, an old Ant song from 1977 called "Red Scab" was used. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Goodwife
Goodwife (Scots: ''Guidwife''), usually abbreviated Goody, was a polite form of address for women, formerly used where "Mrs.", "Miss" and "Ms." would be used today. Its male counterpart is Goodman. However, a woman addressed by this title was of a lesser social rank than a woman addressed as Mistress. "Goodwife" and "Goody" were used in England, Scotland, and Colonial America, with the earliest known use circa 1325. By the mid-18th century they had become archaic outside Scotland, and they are perhaps best known today as the forms of address used in Arthur Miller's historical fiction ''The Crucible'', in Nathaniel Hawthorne's short story "Young Goodman Brown", the novels ''Magnus'' by George Mackay Brown, ''The Witch of Blackbird Pond'' (name Goodwife Cruff) by Elizabeth George Speare, and Mossflower by Brian Jacques. The title also appears in the expression "Goody Two-Shoes", which is sometimes credited to the 1765 children's book '' The History of Little Goody Two-Shoes'', ...
