Have you caught this season’s winter cold yet? Personally, I’m working on my second, but if you’re feeling short on viruses, you can order a flavored batch of Candy Virus. The boxes come in three varieties—The Cure (grape); The Epidemic (apple); and The Virus (strawberry). All three are advertised as “tangy pebbles” and come in clever shapes like skulls, a cartoon virus character, and stuff that looks like it would be found on the microscope slide of a very ill person.

I’m not grossed out by Candy Virus, but I am intrigued as to what made someone decide to manufacture such a product. Then again, when you compare the viruses to our Top 10 Grossest Candies, those little boxes of sickness seem light-hearted and even pleasant.
