10 BANNED Candies that Can Kill
Who doesn’t love candy? Even the most health conscious of us have eaten some once or twice in our
lives, we probably even have a favorite one. But did you know that there are candies out there that can
kill? Today, we will be talking about 10 of these deadly sweets. Number 1 is probably the deadliest of
them all so stick around to find out what it is.
Number 10. Trolli Roadkill Gummi Candy
It looks exactly like what it says on the packaging; cute little animals in gummi candy form with one thing
that makes them unique, tire tracks running through them. Yep, they literally made gummi candies to
look like roadkill. The candy featured gummies in the shape of squashed snakes, chickens and
squirrels–complete with tire marks.
Of course, this brilliant product was beset upon by outrage and a formal protest was filed against Kraft
Foods, the mastermind behind this brilliant idea, by the New Jersey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Animals. The New Jersey SPCA claimed that the road kill candy sent a “wrong message to children,
that it’s OK to harm animals.” It took particular offense to the advertisement, which featured animated
animals fearing for their lives with a pair of headlights rapidly approaching them.
Although the case didn’t specify it, some also feared that the candies that showed blatant cruelty to
animals could breed a generation of.
Kraft was quick to defend their product, saying that their candy was misunderstood and that it wasn’t
their intention to offend anyone. They eventually succumbed to pressure and pulled out the roadkill
candy in 2005.
Number 9. The Hippy Sippy
Hippy Sippy was a Japanese made candy made in the 60s during the height of the Hippy movement in
the United States. Clearly trying to make a boat load of cash, the product was imported to the US and
soon were available on candy store shelves within reach of millions of impressionable kids, which is a
bad thing and I’ll explain why.
You see, Hippy Sippy candies look suspiciously like syringes, obviously a play on the rampant use of
recreational drugs at the time. The idea was kids would suck tiny multicolored chocolate balls through a
thin straw that looks like a needle.
Of course, parents were outraged as soon as they saw their kids mimicking taking drugs during their
snack time and quickly launched complaints and its was promptly removed from store shelves. You can
still find the empty packages though, and also the controversial buttons that came along with it saying
things like “we sell happiness” and “I’ll try anything”. You can buy them on Ebay or around $100.
Number 8. Toxic Waste Nuclear Sludge Chew Bar
From candies that might teach children vices that might kill them, we now move to a candy that
potentially will. It came as little surprise to many when a candy called “Toxic Waste Nuclear Sludge Chew
Bars” was recalled in 2011 for being, yes, toxic. Tests by the California Department of Public Health
indicated that many of the bars had “elevated levels of lead“ which is approximately .24 parts per
million, more than double the standard US FDA “tolerance” of .1 parts per million. Of course, lead
poisoning can be fatal, especially in pregnant women and children under six years old.
As for the culprit, Indianapolis’ Candy Dynamics, who are still in business by the way, sold the candy but
it was manufactured in Pakistan, a country notorious for having lax safety and health standards. Luckily,
no one reported becoming sick from the candy. Instead of waiting for a court order, Candy Dynamics
smartly pulled out the products themselves.
Number 7. Kinder Eggs
Who doesn’t love Kinder Eggs? Milk chocolate eggs on the outside with a surprise toy waiting for you in
the inside, what’s so bad about that? Well, according the US FDA, a lot of things are wrong with it, thus
it is banned in the United States.
It’s not that they have something against the Kinder Egg specifically. They actually banned the sale of all
food products containing embedded, non-nutritive objects some 80 years ago, and Kinder Eggs
unfortunately fall under this ban. The rationale for the ban is that the toy inside, which is encased in a
