I'm Jewish, but I really love Easter candy: jelly beans, chocolate bunnies (preferably when they're filled with booze), Robbin Eggs, whatever. But this year, the market is filled with some slightly weird new candies—and because of my obsession, I'm trying to keep an open mind. The downside: Some of them sound pretty strange—no one in their right mind craves bunny poop. The upside: They're all actually really good—if you can get past their names.
1. Bunny Food
Actual bunny food is gross. Carrots for dessert? No thank you. But, these gummies are actually just veggie-shaped Jolly Rancher flavors. The carrot shapes are orange—the peas are lime. (Suddenly I wish real vegetables had the same flavor profiles.)
2. Bunny Poop
Quite honestly the name of this candy makes me nauseous. But that hasn't stopped me from eating almost the entire package: It's chocolate covered cookie dough bites, and they're basically gone.
Snakeskin anything sounds totally not delish. But these snakeskin-design chocolate eggs were actually created by top chocolatier Fracnois Payard, so they're made with high-quality Jivara milk chocolate. They're also filled with additional chocolates.
4. Cotton Tails
When I see this candy, I can't help but think of rabbit butts—and not in a cute way. But the reality is, these bags of cotton tails are just individual multi-colored pieces of cotton candy—and they're totally delightful.
Much like Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans, you won't know if these Peeps are fruity, savory, salty, or sour until you taste them! Whether that game is fun or terrifying, we'll leave it up to you to decide.
Everyone always bites off the ears first anyway—these candies conveniently leave out the rest.
