Road kill candy angers animal rights activists

These nutballs need to lighten up a bit: this is like a group of otolaryngologists bitching about Harry Potter' Every Flavor Jelly Beans because they encourage nose and ear picking!

And I actually feel sorry for Kraft Foods:

"If you look across the Gummi category we certainly have many products that are offbeat, and that's what we were doing in this case," said Kraft spokesman Larry Baumann. "We didn't mean to offend anyone."

Then you'd better just go outta business, fellas, 'cause that's not possible in this day and age.

Animal rights activists are disgusted by a new candy from Kraft Foods Inc. that's shaped like critters run over by cars -- complete with tire treads.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
