This Week In Candy

Candy News - It appears breaking world records seems to be the thing to do.  In the last few weeks, two companies have attempted and broken a world record that involved candy.  Lindt broke the record for the most candies unwrapped in a single place at a single time, and See's Candy attempted the world record for the largest lollipop.  I have to be honest, the worlds largest lollipop seems to be a more legitimate record than the most candies unwrapped at once, but who am I too judge.

What's Happening At Candy Critic -  With the Olympics starting at the end of the week, we've decided to dedicate this week to a British candy review-a-thon.  England, and the entire UK, is one of the best places in the world to buy sweets.  Most people only really know them for their chocolate, in particular Cadbury, but there are so many other great treats available.

Rant - This week I've decided to let Allison choose the theme for the rant.  While she's written many an argument against the way people dispose of gum, she's sited an additional gum peeve.  She hates it when people spit out their gum, into a garbage can, but it ends up sticking around the rim of the can instead.  I agree, and I'm sure anybody who's had to clean these cans would agree as well.  If you're going to throw out your gum, wrap it up in some paper or something.
