Unappealing candy from Archie McPhee

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?

Sigmund Freud watermelon lollipops

I'm not sure if the audience for this weird candy product is would-be cannibals or students of Freudian analysis. More likely it's aimed at the orally fixated who have a sweet tooth, just like all lollipops.

The folks over at Archie McPhee say that as long you don't have any hangups about eating candies shaped like human heads then you'll love the shape and flavor of these Freud head lollipops. The package has a spoof on the famous Freud quote that reads, "Sometimes a lollipop is just a lollipop." For some reason these things remind me of another famous quote: "There's a sucker born every minute."

Tip of the Day

Forget fancy, overpriced organic cleaners. You can do plenty with just a squeeze of citrus.
