Yesterday was the first day I went to Zern's during the evening. I usually go in early morning so I can avoid all the people pretending they're going to buy anything more than an ice cream cone while I'm down on my knees digging through bins of old VHS tapes. I got a fair stash of goodies, some of which I was planning to talk about, but my scanner is in Bitchy Queen mode and won't run. Instead I'll go over 2 interesting candy packs I picked up from one of the stands.



First we have Artsy Tartsy, a plastic pallet with 3 capsules full of tart candy powder and a candy brush not unlike the stick in a Fun Dip.  You lick the blue brush and dip it into lovely little pockets filled with sour candy powder.  The idea is genius, but I think it's a case of too much for too little. You work way too hard trying to get this little bits of candy sand than it's worth. Eventually you wind up just lapping the candy up by dipping your tongue into the resealable pockets.




Candycraft Ink and Paper You Can Eat delivers all it boasts.  You get 3 "pens" filled with flavored goo and some paper-like substance. The paper is flattened sheets of that Styrofoamy stuff they use to make Flying Saucer (Satellite Wafers) candies. You can scrawl, scribble, and doodle whatever you like and stuff your face with it. You can even write "out Angelina Jolie," and honestly proclaim you just, "Ate out Angeline Jolie." Though I'm sure the candy pens might have a more palatable flavor.



So all in all, they were fun to play with, but when it comes to eating I'd rather just down a box of Fruit Roll-ups and call it a day. While I was laying in bed with the pens nearby my demon spawn cat decided to come and make a couch out of my belly. But I got that bitch back.



HAHA! It looks like he has a booger.
