  Maraschino Cherry, History of Maraschino Cherry, The Fruit That Made Oregon Famous
Carl Payne, who heads the research and development department of Oregon cherry Growers, suspects that myth got started when a writer for a national news magazine doing a story on maraschino cherries confused formaldehyde with benzaldehyd, a flavoring oil extracted from cherry, walnut, or almond pits, which is used in maraschinos.
The great-great-great-great-great grandmother of today's maraschino cherries was the marasca, a small, sour, fl cherry that grew wild in Dalmatia, on the coast of present-day Croatia.
By 1915, cherry consumption in the U.S. had gone through the roof because of "the fashion of adding preserved cherries, as much as for ornamentation as to give flavor, to many drinks and ices," wrote U.P. Hedrick in a report of the New York Agricultural Experiment Station.
