You wouldn’t believe the crazy/interesting emails I get. I recently received an email from a law firm representing a candy company that is being sued by another candy company. (I’m not going to mention specifics even though I wasn’t told to keep it hush-hush.) A while back I wrote about the candy (company) that is being sued, and now their lawyers want to pick my brain about the candy and find out about my background since I seem to have a great deal of “candy expertise”.
It made me laugh to think about being part of some court proceeding and being called as an “expert candy witness”. That cracks me up. I want Denny Crane to cross-examine me!
Your honor, Denny Crane here … I’d like to call my expert candy witness to the stand ….. Brian Pipa of CandyAddict.com
What makes me a candy industry expert? I eat and enjoy candy - I have all my life. That’s it. Nothing more. There are people all over the world just like me in this regard. I just happen to have a candy website to prove it. 
UPDATE: I have now appeared on TV as a candy expert!
Lol thats cool and very funny. I so want to read the review you wrote for it now.

March 29th, 2007 at 11:00 amI always wonder where they get the “experts” on some of the cable shows, like “marshmallow expert” or “potato chip historian.” I guess you would now qualify for “candy expert” on some sort of documentary. And that is excellent.
March 29th, 2007 at 4:01 pmCongrats Brian. Someone “legal” regards you as an expert.
March 29th, 2007 at 4:15 pmThat’s funny, I would like to see your review on the candy company
