Never Run Out Of Gummy Worms Again

The World's Largest Gummy Worm

Every kitchen has items that need to constantly be in stock: milk, eggs, flour, gummy. Without these essentials no kitchen is complete. It’s always best to stock up on these must-haves, but when it comes to gummy creatures, they come in packages that are woefully small. Thankfully, The World’s Largest Gummy Worm is here to rescue culinarians everywhere.

The stats:
* 128x as massive as a boring, ordinary gummy worm
* 26 inches long, or roughly one-tenth the size of the small intestine. (hint: buy more!)
* 3 pounds of gummy worm goodness
* 4,000 calories (compare, here)
* surprisingly affordable at only 28 bucks!

And of course, made in the good ol’ USA!

Tucking away directly into the body of the board, the mezzaluna offers an easy and safe way to keep the handy cutlery at the ready. Plus its Moso bamboo construction is ecologically sound. Measures 10-inches by 10-inches and stands 1-inch tall.
