I was going to just post some quick thoughts on some of these candies but then I thought it would be fun to do the mini reviews in haiku form. So, I give you, our first ever Haiku Candy Reviews:
Ice Breakers Sours Gum |
 Space Food Sticks Retro candy cubes. Tastes like gross energy bars. Launch them into space. |
Starbuck’s After Coffee Gum |
 Jelly Belly Lollibeans Lollibeans are big. They barely fit in my mouth. Don’t have much flavor. |
Please leave a comment letting me know if this was a stupid idea or if you liked the haikus so I know if I should ever do more Haiku Candy Reviews in the future.
Well, I thought it was neat, but you should have balanced them with good reviews of other candy as well.
June 15th, 2007 at 9:57 amI liked the candy haiku. I’m sorry the candy wasn’t better this time around, though!
June 15th, 2007 at 10:35 amI’d like to try my hand at these, but I’m not sure how I’d sum up a candy in seventeen syllables!
June 15th, 2007 at 11:49 amIn my class I’m the best haiku writer. Those were funny!
June 15th, 2007 at 12:58 pmHa! Genius! I’m all for more! :)
June 15th, 2007 at 1:15 pmLoved the candy haiku!
June 15th, 2007 at 2:44 pmFun! Makes me want to play around with new ideas and new candy. Keep it up.
June 15th, 2007 at 8:44 pmI actually found those haikus hilarious. The Space Food Sticks one cracked me up :)
June 15th, 2007 at 9:04 pmI thought they were lovely. The lollibean one made me chuckle.
June 15th, 2007 at 11:16 pmI loved the haiku reviews. They’re a good way to pack a lot of reviews in little space too! Maybe you could expand on some of the reviews if there was more you felt you needed to say.
June 16th, 2007 at 10:33 amI love the haiku reviews! It makes me want to start writing my chocolate descriptions in haiku form.
June 18th, 2007 at 3:02 pmHA! These cracked me up! Definitely do more of these! While it would be good to see a positive haiku review for balance, I’m guessing the negative ones are funnier…that little down turn on the end is what made me laugh on all of these.
