Road kill...
The animal rights activists are protesting candy now. A candy company has begun distributing Road Kill, gummy candies in the shape of squashed squirrels and smashed snakes. Apparently the ARA do not believe that children know the difference between tiny sticky candies and real animals.
Where were the protesters when we were buying Pop Rocks? Did they not worry that Pop Rocks were nothing more than gateway candy turning fans into gravel suckers and boulder gnawers? Where was the concern over Garbage Pail candy? The risk was HUGE that chewing on the fish heads and bones would turn all aficionados into dumpster diving adults!
It's candy, people! I assure you, my children know the difference between Road Kill candy and a puppy. Chewing on gummies is not going to desensitize them and turn them into animal torturers any more than eating animal crackers all these years has given them a taste for elephant.
