If I had a business card that stated the adjectives most appropriate for describing me, the first one would definitely be “Candy Addict.” The second? Nerd. I love sci-fi and computers almost as much as I love candy. Come to think of it, I’m happiest camped out in front of the TV watching Star Trek reruns and eating bonbons than I am anywhere else. Now, there’s a shirt that embraces both primary aspects of my personality.

From NerdyShirts comes the Nerds Rule T-Shirt. Featuring a nerd holding a box of Nerds, the shirt’s a great way to proclaim your or your loved one’s candy addicted nerdiness. At $20, though, I know I don’t have enough cash left over from my post-Easter purchases to buy one for myself. Ah well, at least my birthday is coming up soon…

Candy is serious business. Well maybe not exactly, but it’s generally thought to be a bad idea to muck with things that people are personally invested in. No matter what it is, someone out there loves it and they’re going to be angry when it changes.

Case in point: Willy Wonka substituted cherry and lime with pineapple and mango in its popular Runts candy this past year with less than stellar response. Mango is a highly unusual flavor to see as far as candy goes, although I found the Runts version to be adequately pleasing. Pineapple, while usually popular enough, is executed horribly for Runts. Both the shape and the flavor are crude representations of actual fruit and it is not very pleasing to the eye or the tongue.

I wrote about this super-cool tshirt previously and my sister came through for me on my birthday and got one for me. I still think it’s the greatest Tshirt ever. So, after six months of writing Candy Addict, I now have my first candy tshirt. I’m wearing it right now and I’m feeling extra Nerd-y. Thanks, sis!

I’m speechless. I just found the best candy Tshirt ever at Split Reason. It combines my two loves: candy and nerdiness (my other blog).

I’m a cheapass though and I can’t justify the $23 (with shipping cost). Still a great shirt though! Anyone else have a favorite candy-related Tshirt?
