Really. I mean, I understand gross-out candy to a point, but this is just crossing a line.
Lollipop shaped like a toilet plunger. Pixie-stix like candy hidden WITHIN the toilet bowl. Plunge, eat. Plunge, eat. I would imagine that the constant introduction of moisture into the toilet dust would eventually cause it to form kitty litter-like clumps, as the specimen at left appears to be doing.
I work so hard to train my fucking DOGS not to drink out of the toilet, and now we encourage this behavior in our CHILDREN? Lick that shit right up! It’s a special sweet treat, the toilet candy!
Truly, the U.S, she is going to hell in a handbasket. Are the French or the Japanese allowing their children to eat toilet candy? Okay, maybe the Japanese; they do all kinds of crazy shit. But the French would dismantle the factory and carry each individual piece over the border to Switzerland before they would allow toilet candy into their country.
Pez, which is essentially candy from a larynx, is creepy enough. Candy from a toilet? FAIL.
My five year old would think that’s awesome. That’s why I would never let him see it.
Oh, yuck and double-yuck.
You haven’t seen this I’m assuming:

wtf?
You have no idea how much I appreciate your, er, uh, way with words. I have to agree with you, I would never buy toilet candy for my kids.
Crap. Jen beat me to this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/travel/gallery/2009/feb/23/taiwan-theme-restaurants-taipei-food?picture=343649373

That is soo gross!
jen and dierdre, i have seen it. and think it is also disgusting. but at least we are adults, able to make informed choices about whether or not we wish to eat food from a toilet. but the children, they must be protected.
eleanor, so it’s funny?
That is hilarious! I can just picture the look on my husband’s face if I came home with toilet candy. As if that wouldn’t be bad enough. I’d probably get an ear full of wasting money again. He can be so uptight.
Oh. My. Lord. So *glad* that is a plunger at least, on first glance it looks like something else…
I had a cat who used to drink from the pretty blue toilet water. His name was Gunther and he was short on brains, but long on beauty and personality. A big fuzzy ragamuffin. He didn’t live long…
I think it’s funny….in..a..whack-job…sorta way. If we had one here I’d try it (I’m very adventurous when it comes to food). In terms of kids: I think any 10 year old would get the joke and so NOT try to drink out of the toilet. Although to be perfectly honest, I don’t think that would fly here.
Each time I’ve scrolled through this post title in my reader, all I can think of is Vincent D’Onofrio’s crazy eyes and halting speech “I AM. In a world. Of SHIT.”
This reminds of a gift my friend Liz got recently: a little plastic dog that poops out chocolate. That you eat. What the fuck.
