It seems pickle-flavored candy canes have entered the holiday treat market, and for those with an adventurous palate, this could be just the ticket. As the festive season rolls in, we usually see the same old sweet treats making their rounds. But if you’re craving something a bit more savory—or just want to pull a hilarious prank on your family—pickle candy canes are making their debut, and we’re definitely curious.
These quirky confections are available on Amazon for just $6.95, which buys you a pack of six vibrant green candy canes that promise a dill flavor.
As someone who leans toward savory snacks, I must admit, these intrigue me. However, reviews suggest that the pickle flavor isn’t overwhelmingly strong, which might be a blessing in disguise. A subtle hint of pickle seems just right. But if pickles aren’t your jam, don’t worry—Amazon has also rolled out bacon (yum!) and gravy (yikes!) flavored candy canes.
And yes, let’s not forget the wasabi and sriracha options. Because why not add a little heat to your holiday? My nose tingles just thinking about them, but to each their own. If you’re a fan of testing your taste buds, Amazon has you covered.
Since these unusual treats look like traditional mint candy canes, they’re perfect for some creative pranks. Imagine filling a candy jar at the office and watching coworkers mistakenly grab what they think is a minty delight, or stepping up your Elf on the Shelf game by having that mischievous little guy leave these tricky candy canes for your unsuspecting kids. The only limit is your creativity and how playful (or mean) you want to be.
Spoiler alert: I may have a few of these in my kids’ stockings this year—after all, why should they have all the holiday fun? What a time to be alive!
Thanks, Amazon, for expanding our taste horizons and giving us some delightfully bizarre options to liven up the holidays. And maybe make them a little gross too.
