There may be a game on the field, but we’re all winners with a spread full of snacks on the table. Especially when there’s a big gaping hole right at the 50-yard line just waiting for the platter of burgers. And more dip! And nachos! And stuffed mushrooms. And little quiches! And sorry. Can’t Talk. Eating.

This is the chemistry set of today. Those semi-dangerous labs-in-a-box are a thing of the past. Nowadays, they aren’t going to pack anything remotely dangerous into those learning kits, so you might as well look elsewhere for real fun. Since Junior no longer has the capability to produce searing acid baths for his action figures, the modern chemistry set might as well produce something useful: food!
As far as gingerbread houses go, Halloween seems like the perfect holiday for them. Candy flows freely during this time of year, a happenstance that offers mounds of sugary treats just waiting to be converted into building supplies. Alas, the fat man in the red suit has usurped this logical practice, turning gingerbread houses everywhere into gumdrop-adorned travesties of tradition. Well, no longer!
The Fox Run Halloween Gingerbread Haunted House Kit offers the ability for kids of all ages to decorate a gingerbread house the way it was meant to be. Plastic pumpkins and pillowcases full of chocolate treats finally have a place to end up aside from turning into a melted glob of goo found under the mattress months down the road. Perhaps most importantly, this gingerbread house finally supplies a place to put all that horrible candy corn. Comes with seven cookie cutters, a cardboard base and an icing set for decorating.
Finally Mother Nature is catching up with mankind. We have given the world peanut butter and jelly in a single jar, Neapolitan ice cream and the magic of Nerds. It’s about time the natural world followed suit with a little flavor mixing.
Apparently the Golden Delicious was picked from the tree by one Ken Morrish of England. The red side is supposedly sweeter, having spent more time in the sun, which is perfect for those of us who appreciate a little sweetness with a tangy apple. Even though the experts say it was a genetic freak with odds of a million to one, I say Mother Nature is finally getting around to the good stuff.

Wait, there’s not a bottle of Jim Beam in this Jim Beam Party Box? Pbbt! That’s a party I’ll skip. Or rather, since it is filled with a barbecue sauce, a steak sauce and a marinade, I’ll just be stopping by. At least I know I’ll be able to drive after this eat and run.
You know it isn’t very good for you, but you want it anyways. Not bacon-bacon, rather canned-bacon. Standard bacon must be good for you because, well, it tastes so good–but we already knew that. No, it’s the bacon in a can that draws attention here. Taste tests of similar design have not fared too well. (See this video review of Yoder’s Canned Bacon, for example.) However, the call of the bacon is strong, and as such we must have on hand–at all times–emergency bacon.
Tac Bac – Tactical Canned Bacon serves such a purpose. With a shelf life of over ten years, this emergency ration pack is perfect for those mornings when no other pork product will do. No longer must one endure the morning shuffle to the corner store. If the night before involved lots of drinking, well then, you understand that this is a must have pantry product. Just ignore the taste. And texture. And probably smell. But, hey! It’s bacon!
