I just can't do it. Maybe because it's called the Sour Flush.
Or because the lollipops are shaped like plungers.
Or that I believe candy should look as little like a toilet as possible.
Whatever the reason, Sadie was mad and cared not even a little bit about my 'using our purchasing power, or non-purchasing power, to rid the world of toilet candy' speech.
It made me think, why can't candy manufacturers come up with products with a little more positive message like the 'clean your room candy', or the 'go read your Bible candy'.
And it made me curious about what other candy nastiness is out there.
Here's a few.
Earwax candy.
Lick your wounds candy. Basically, bandaids with candy scabs.And finally, the Chocka-Caca. It's a baby diaper with chocolate poo in it.
I believe this pretty much sums up all that's wrong with the world. Ya'll have a great day and go get yourself some Milk Duds which, in comparison to these are like a breath of fresh air.

You are too much!! THAT is hilarious. I have never seen such a thing! I agree. The world has become completely demoralized.
Ewwww! That is TERRIBLE! The color of the candy is not doing it any favors either. Glad you took a stand :) No reason to let her candy choice skills go down the toilet. ha!
There really are NO WORDS.
Ewwwwww.
FUNNY!
But I do have to say Milk Duds look a little like what the plunger is suppose to get down that purple toilet!
Yuck! Thanks for the good laugh this morning.
Ok--yes, as awful as the sour flush is, I think I would purchase one if I see it. SO funny!
Which grocery store?
When my little boy (who is now 49) saw a Milk Dud on the floor he picked it up and said, "Is dis candy or is dis poo?" In a split second it was in his mouth and he announced, "Is candy!"
That is disgusting!!
Melissa I have to say I've been remiss in reading your blog and it's my loss. But that changes today! "Mrs. Clean" (aka Candy) just encouraged me to read the last two days and I'm about to wet my pants laughing... snorting right along with you! I'm going out to by some potty candy to see for myself!!!
I am so getting that for Sadie!!
Remember garbage pail kids, trash can candy and candy cigarettes--quality candy of our day!
Speaking of not allowing her to spend her allowance on this, how do you manage the whole allowance issue?
In Young Life we did the diaper poo thing. Competed to see who can find the most chocolate covered raisins in the chocolate pudding out of a diaper. . . . with only your mouth. It was my favorite game, but I think the toilet candy is just too far.
but, I think the candy company achieved their goal. The more you hate it, the more the kids love it.
Oh yeaaa, it all sounds so familiar! hahahahahahah
except..the whole toilet candy..wow..thats deep
The hood has taken treats to a whoooole other level!
hey..you may want to check with blogher ads about having your twitter on your blog..they emailed me and told me to take my down because it was interfering with their ads..let me know if they fixed that problem
Where do you find these things? Lol I have never seen this candy or heard of it before today (or the others you mentioned) YUCK!
When I saw the picture all I could think is how that blue powder reminded me of the toilet cleaning products - blech!
Glad you begrudgingly convinced your daughter to step back up on the curb in her candy choices - lol
That's so gross. Your daughter will thank you for denying this when she's older. :)
milk duds are my favorite. When I was a kid the candy to get was "nerds". Times have changed.
Now my kids like the candy where you lick the white chalky candy stick and plunge it into the bag of sugar. Yep, a candy treat fueled by spit.
