THIS IS A JOKE, RIGHT?

Fruit snacks shaped like Legos!

What could possibly go wrong?

Why are they so crunchy?

[crossgirl]

you're supposed to put them on your lego shaped eggos to create your own edible fortress.

[SharonCville]

They've had candy shaped like Legos for years. I suppose the fruit snacks are marginally healthier. They're sort of a SweetTart-type deal.

I'm waiting for the gummy knives and ice picks to come out. My little nephews will love them.

Here's a link (if I can get the linking to work, which I usually can't)

Do the candies hurt like heck when stepped on with bare feet?

Luke - no knives, but we're reporting for duty, Sir.

Although with the popularity of the internet and video games, do we really need to worry about kids knowing what leggos are? They're probably just candy to eat while playing video games anyway.

[The Dread Pirate Chris]

My 7-year-old knows exactly what legos are.

[Elon Weintraub]

Dave, how behind the times are you? Do they really not sell those in the third world country you call Miami?

[Annie Where-but-here]

It's finally happened - something I consider normal is featured on Dave's blog. These are quite tasty and contain vitamin C. I will continue to eat them, just now only under cover of dorkness. :(

I always think "Someone lost a meeting" when I see a product like this. There was a meeting where someone rammed this idea through, and got to do it even though it was an incredibly stupid idea.

[Siouxie]

BRILLIANT!!!

and a *snork* @ BillyJoeJimBob!

I can see it now...this will be great for the dental industry.

[queensbee]

yum! carnuba wax!

[Margaritaville]

Dread Pirate, those will do! And Luke somehow took over my name today.

[MartiniShark]

"Le'go my Eggo Legos, egghead!"

[Steve Haller]

And of course the kids will want this too...

[Diva]

"Mom? These Lego candies taste kinda--ACK!" *silent choking struggles ensue*

Brilliant. Perfect for the parents who are ready to run away from home.

Listen, Legos are a very real threat. I had to pull my toilet off its mountings and spend the better part of a day forcing the little plastic chunks out of it when my four-year-old flushed a handful. As funny as it might seem to us as adults, the last thing we need is to give our hapless larvae the opportunity to confuse inedible, hard-edged bricks with candy.

[KJP]

♫ Drugs are like that, too... ♫

[SharonCville]

Thanks for the link help, Baron. (How do you do that?)

I agree that there is something essentially wrong with deliberately confusing children with candy that looks like inedible plastic toys. Sort of like teaching them to eat stuff marked "Poison."

Of course, hypodermic needle candy is the next choice:

And they won't build anything. Not that I tried. Or at least, not that I tried for more than five minutes.

< a href = "http:// your link (the website or pic you want to link to)" > yourtext (what you want highlighted in blue) < /a>

If you need further directions, just
