Two Two Habits In One

This was sent in from a fan, and he wondered if I had anything similar in any stage of development. The answer to that question is no, no, no, not a chance.

There is a new candy confection on the market, and its marijuana flavored. Chronic Candy is its name and its slogan is, “Every lick is just like taking a hit.”

The candy has been endorsed by Dr. Snoop Dogg and Dr. Paris Hilton, who are both bong certified behavioral therapists.

As you might expect, the candy is drawing criticism from Watch Dogg groups who fear the candy will appeal widely to children.

I once had an idea for fish oil candy but it just couldn’t pass the taste test. Kids just couldn’t suck on a lozenge that tasted like mackerel for some reason.

The candy contains no intoxicants, according to the marketers, but I don’t know if I find that reassuring or not.

Next up should be beer flavored candy “Bud Budz” and raspberry vodka Little Finlandias. How about Scotch on a Stick, Drambuie Drops or Tequila flavored Josecorice?

And while we are at it, lets make a bubble gum cell phone for kids loaded with high fructose corn syrup so they can blow the biggest bubbles while chewing up cell phone minutes. Well, the marketing is clever. The company has managed to combine gateways to obesity and drug abuse in a single product. You gotta hand it to them for that, don’t you?

I think not.

Do your kids a favor and get them to take fish oil and they’ll thank you for it down the road. And while you are at it do the same for yourself and toss in some Monster Multi as well because as we get older we can't get away with bubblegum nutrition.

All the best,
