A can of novelty candys that taste like sea food.

I never thought I'd come across a candy that didn't sound at least somewhat appetizing. I've heard tell of the vomit flavored jelly beans, but I've never encountered them, so it doesn't quite count. However, this review of Chum Bucket candy from Candy Addict was enough to give me sympathy nausea.

The seafood flavored candy is made by Archie McPhee, whose company mission it must be to create candy that's only fit for gag gifts. I'm sure they don't intend their products for actual human consumption.

I know that I would not ever willingly eat sea food flavored "candy," but I'm glad that some people will for the sake of a candy review. So I say thanks, Candy Addict. How about the rest of you? Would you be willing to try the sea food flavored candy?

They have to be better than the vomit beans.
I have had the "luck" to come across one, and lemme tell you, the taste is like that last little bit of bile after 20 minutes of dry heaves.
Chum would be a pleasant alternative.

Try it? No; thanks for asking though. Now my dog's would probably think it's pretty tasty. Would you like to send them a "bucket"?

We're gonna need a bigger can.

Tip of the Day

December may have peppermint bark, but have you thought to incorporate the taste of autumn into white chocolate with a rich pumpkin swirl?
