Because what good is Halloween if you can’t trick some treaters, these are the shitake mushroom flavored candy canes made and sold by Archie McPhee ($5.50 for a six-pack, regularly $6.50). Honestly, I’m not sure if I could even identify what shitake tastes like. “What about just shit?” Oh easy, it’s like all I’ve had for the past seven months.
Thanks to Lydia, who agrees it looks like somebody made a wrong turn on their way to Flavortown.
