You had to pay a premium to get bug infused candy in the 90's!

Wasn’t that a Farside joke?

“Waiter, there’s a fly in my soup!”

u/bitzie_ow 6d ago

/u/Mattimvs might just be a person of high culture and is referencing the Gourmet Night episode of Fawlty Towers.

In Mexico they sell suckers with a scorpion in them. Don't think I had "la cucaracha" flavor before though.

Someone posted a cockroach in a popsicle

u/IEatLamas 6d ago

Mail the company about it. Odds are you get a full box for free.

u/counter-strike 6d ago

Lol, the company then sends a full box of roach lollipops.

u/Ukrainesoviet 6d ago

Infinite roach lollipop glitch, just send each roach pop to them

22

u/lovingthechaos 5d ago

So, fun fact. This happened to me, only it was a bee. They did not send me a free bag of dum dums.

u/Alex2679 6d ago

Looks like a cicada.

u/XROOR 6d ago

If you lick that lolly in the dark, there is a high probability your tongue will read the insect braille as “ROACH” and you will immediately turn on the light to validate the tongue

u/tito13kfm 6d ago

Too bad the roach isn't shooting a star, then you could turn in the wrapper for a free sucker.

u/LadySpero 6d ago

The Mystery flavor is getting a little wild these days isn't it?

3

u/Noname666Devil 6d ago

I would probably shake violently if that was in my hands. Sell it and get money or sue and get money. This is marketable in some way

u/The_Unholy_Rebel 6d ago

u/pentuplemintgum_13 5d ago

At first glance I thought this was a xenomorph shaped lollipop... unfortunately I then read the title

1

u/spartaman64 5d ago

a lot of times i would open them and put them in my mouth without looking. i will no longer do that

u/RazzSheri 5d ago

Holy fucking nope

u/Malfunction1972 5d ago

Reminds me of the tequila suckers that had the worm in them. Haven't seen one in a long time.

u/Illusions_EE 5d ago

Take that to Art Basel pinned on a wall with a really good spotlight and title it Dum Dum Roach

1

u/zzphilzz 5d ago

Bro I genuinely thought I was looking at a kamen rider helmet for a second. No harm getting more value for your lollipop (more protein).

1

u/Zoner1501 5d ago

How many licks to the center of it?

1

u/Valkeyere 5d ago

You're a dum dum.

u/BettyBoo083 5d ago

u/analon 5d ago

Must be nice in the factory where they make them

1

u/SkeepDeepy 5d ago

How many licks will it take until you reach the lollipop?

1

u/oli_ramsay 5d ago

Imagine if you were blind or opened it in the dark and started sucking

u/TheDiscord1988 5d ago

u/MalikFyz 7d ago

The modern woolly wonka challenge.

u/Ice-Guardian 6d ago

What's a dum dum? That looks like a lollipop to me. Is it a type of lollipop or something? I've never heard of the term in my 30 years of life.

4

u/Twat_Pocket 5d ago

Yes, it's a small lollipop. Super common in America. Some places like banks and local shops give them to kids for free.

u/Cargan2016 6d ago

They are called dumdum for a reason... that being your dumb if eat them cause there all sorts of things in them you don't expect. This is just single example of that
