This year is chaos, and if all of...this *gestures vaguely* wasn't enough proof of that, the candy popping up in stores this year should be. Not only can you get candy corn this fall that tastes like a turkey dinner or a blackberry cobbler, when December rolls around, you can also buy candy canes that taste like ketchup, kale, and mac & cheese.

The peculiar candies can be ordered online from Archie McPhee, a Seattle-based novelty shop that sells gag gifts and treats. Their candy canes might just be the most notable item they sell especially considering the aforementioned flavors are some of the tamer ones. The line-up of candy canes also includes flavors like bacon, shiitake mushroom, pho, pizza, and clam.

It's unclear who exactly asked for these flavors, but in the year 2020, anything goes. These would make a perfect stocking stuffer for the adventurous eater in your life or an easy contribution to your annual white elephant gift exchange. I'd even go as far as to say ordering a couple of these candy canes and having an at-home blindfolded taste test would keep you busy for an hour or two.

Each type of candy cane comes in six-count boxes for $5.50 each, and that's definitely a small price to pay for the long lasting memory of the lingering clam or shiitake taste in your mouth. So, what do ya say? Are you placing an order or are you going to live your life in ignorant bliss? The choice is yours. Happy holidays.
