Someone had a dumb idea. That person has been canned.

US food giant Kraft has decided to halt production of sweets shaped like roadkill - animals run over by cars. These included shaped like flattened snakes, chickens and squirrels with track marks on their bodies. Now, I'm not about to complain about how it's a fairly disgusting idea for candy. It is. But to each his own. If junior wants to eat roadkill shaped candies, so be it. I honestly don't think it'll make him think roadkill is delicious. And if it does.... junior is stupid, and will likely believe any old thing. Also, I don't think it's going to make anyone intentionally hit animals with their car, in hopes of making massive delicious candies. Although, if someone got really high while eating these things and went out driving..... nah. Couldn't happen.

What I find remarkable is the Kraft spokesperson's explanation for the recall: "We understand how this product could be misinterpreted, and we respect that point of view". You understand how it could be misinterpreted? What interpretation were you going for exactly? Honestly buddy, there is no overreaching analysis that can be applied to candies, regardless of their shape... barring something sexual. And I'll leave that to Freud. You got pressured by animal groups, and are recalling your dumbassed product. Please don't BS me.
