World's Larges Gummy Bear!

I am truly an avid fan of the gummy bear. I know that there are many types of gummy candies, but none of them are quite the same as those little squishy bears hibernating in their bags. One night over break I was just checking stuff on the computer, and to my surprise my friend shared a link with me. A link to the World's Largest Gummy Bear! Now the site that the link sent me to was set up to sell one of the greatest products ever to the mass public, but it also gave a lot of information and put a little bit of humor in too.

This gummy bear is equal to about 1400 regular size gummy bears, is 9.5 inches tall, and it weighs around 5 pounds. As you can tell this is not a snack you want to sit down and eat in one sitting, especially since it contains a whopping 12,600 calories! You could either share it with friends, or just take tiny servings and just wrap the rest up to eat at your leisure. Either way it will last up to a year if wrapped properly.

The site offers two ways to eat the delicious glob of sugary goodness. First is the bite, tear, and chew method. As you could probably guess this consists of picking up your bear, sinking your teeth into it, and then ripping away at it to your heart's content. The second is the knife and fork method. Which is also pretty self explanatory, just sit the bear down on a plate, jab your fork into it, and saw away at it piece by piece with the knife. I would probably prefer the bite, tear, and chew method, but to each his own.

There is also a warning about not getting to emotionally attached to your bear. Sure it may be adorable, but the bear was specially created to be consumed, and nothing would make it happier. The warnings include the following:
- Don't take your bear sight-seeing around in a baby bjorn.
- Don't teach your bear how to play the piano.
- Don't put your bear in a crib and sing him lullabies.
- Don't feed your bear regular sized gummy bears. World's Largest Gummy Bears aren't cannibals! (my favorite)

Doesn't this just seem like the greatest product ever! Even if you can't eat this whole thing they offer a Giant Gummy Bear on a Stick. Sure it loses some of the novelty because only about an eighth of the normal size, but it's on a stick!
