I always think of Jolly Ranchers as hard candy, what we call boiled sweets. should've had an option for roof-of-the-mouth ulcers from sucking on too many of those

Those Highland Toffee bars surely win this thread

There were once calls for McCowan’s to make a Highland Toffee surf board A surfer’s website once called for McCowan’s to make a disposable anti-shark Surfboard, made entirely from Highland Toffee. They suggested that any shark attacking such a board would find its teeth so gummed together that it would be unable to attack the surfer who could then escape.The idea prompted Alan McCafferty, who owned the company at that point to respond: ”If there’s a profit in toffee surfboards, I’ll make them.”

― Rock Wokeman (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 18 January 2017 18:16 (seven years ago) link
ah, no this is about all types of confectionery that can wreak havoc on your mouth, hard or chewy
(there are Jolly Rancher chews out there, tho)

These results are messed up. It’s not like you can’t brush your teeth right after you spoil them.

there’s a great scene in the Guided By Voices documentary where Mitch Mitchell is brushing his teeth and keeps pausing periodically to take a drag off a cigarette

we're talking the kind of candy that breaks your teeth when you bite or rips out something out you open your mouth after biting down. not sugar content
