Candy is usually a delicious, sweet treat designed to delight children and adults. But for some unclear reason, some manufacturers have launched sweets that are nasty in appearance or taste, which are a direct insult to the sense of beauty.
Do not eat tight before reading this rating, as we present the top 10 most disgusting sweets in the world.
10. Sweets that mimic earwax
These sweets have a pleasant sweet taste, but who in their right mind would want to pick out the edible contents from the plastic auricle? They even come with their own spoon a la stick for the ears. I don’t even want to think about how many children will rummage in my ears after they try these sweets.
9. Scab sweets
When creating these confectionery products, the main emphasis was not on taste, but on appearance. They look like scabs on a wound along with a band-aid. It is unlikely that there will be many mothers who want to give such a sweet to a child before or after a meal.
8. Hawthorn flakes
Candy shopping in the Asian market can be an exercise in overcoming feelings of frustration. You will either come home with a delicious aromatic sweetness that you have never had before, or something that will make you get rid of the contents of the stomach in the shortest possible time. Hawthorn flakes belong to the second option.
Made from the fruits of Crataegus pinnatifolia and packaged in cylindrical packs, these sweets are so inedible that some people instead of using them inside use them to trick the parking meter.
7. Sweets with scorpions
Inside each of these wonderful pastries there is a real (but already inanimate) scorpion. And when you eat the top sweet coating, you can eat arthropods crispy on your teeth. The California company Hotlix makes these sweets. In its assortment there are also candies with worms, larvae and other muck, which is grown on a special ranch. Do not put the first dirty worm in the candy, even the unappetizing filling should be environmentally friendly.
6. Gorilla Goats
These are sweetened dry dark beans (common in Asian cooking). They taste like sugar-sprinkled earth and are some of the tastiest sweets in the world. And these disgusting sweets got their name because of their outward resemblance to the snotty “rockets” that gorillas in the zoo like to “shoot” at visitors.
5. Ant candy
As in the case with the seventh rating number of the most nasty sweets, this is, in fact, a piece of molten sugar with a bunch of dead ants inside. Of the large number of things on the planet that candy manufacturers could add to their confectionery, they chose far from the most appetizing and useful option.
4. Cockroaches
Harry Potter fans can buy anything they want, as long as it reminds them of their favorite characters. Apparently, this is exactly what the creators of the “Cockroach clusters” sweets reasoned (they are “Cockroach mustaches”). In the Harry Potter universe, the name of the candy was the password to the office of Dumbledore, the principal of the Hogwarts school of magic.
And one entrepreneurial confectionery company bought a license and released these terrible sweets, which are a degraded version of Gummi Bears with an a la M & Ms shell to simulate hard cockroach chitin. And yes, "Cockroach clusters" are as tasty as their name.
3. Sweets with crickets
In childhood, many children catch grasshoppers. However, few children eat them. If you're curious about what these insects taste like, buy some of the most disgusting sweets in the world - Crick-Ettes. Inside them are real grasshoppers, dried and sold in three versions: bacon and cheese, salt and vinegar, as well as sour cream and onions. The manufacturer is Hotlix. Enjoy your meal!
2. Durian sweets
The spiky durian fruit, originally from Southeast Asia, is notorious for its nauseating smell. If you mix together the amber from rotten onions and garlic, the stench of sewage, and the smell of rotten fish, you get something similar to the smell of the skin of this fruit. At the same time, the flesh of durian, according to the reviews of those who tried it, is deliciously delicate, and it mixes many tastes - vanilla, mango, banana and protein cream. "Hell outside, heaven inside," as they say about durians.
And sweets are made from such a fruit, for example, Milk Toffee Durian. If you decide to try them, eat in splendid isolation. Do not subject the noses of others to a severe test.
1. Dragee tablets with the most vile flavors
The first place in the list of the most disgusting to taste sweets went to BeanBoozled sweets. In the package there are dragees of 10 shades and 20 aromas. That is, each color option has one pleasant taste and one nasty. Taste lottery with guaranteed prize: you can always eat tasty candy after a tasteless one. However, you can complicate the task and play candy roulette with a friend. The winner will have an appetite.
And the tastes of disgusting sweets are one to one: “dirty socks”, “rotten egg”, “snot”, “lawn grass”, “vomiting”, etc. .. All according to the Potterians canons.
Fortunately, dragees are not soaked in skunk secretions and are not wrapped in dirty socks. It's all about flavorings, and the taste will quickly disappear if you drink the candy with water.
