Fun Dip, or Lick-M-Aid is a treat that I don't ever search out, but it finds me, and when it does I'm always game.

5 Strange Candy Choices For Valentines Day - Part 4 - Fun Dip Valentine Mystery Flavor

I don't really associate Fun Dip with Valentine's Day. Sure you could probably find a sexual innuendo in there, but it's not very romantic. The candy itself is also a little strange when you're sharing with someone you love.  Licking a paddle with powder stuck to it is not like feeding your loved one a nice chocolate out of a heart shaped box.

The other detail that's a little odd for Valentine's Day is the "Mystery Flavor" part of this candy. Nothing says romance like eating something that can't be identified.

Classic/Creative Candy Advertising

While researching some cool retro candy ads for this (and next) weeks Classic/Creative Candy Advertising posts, I came across a really cool blog with a great collection of retro candy packages.  Some may argue that packages don't really count as advertising, but I disagree.  I've bought many a candy in my life just because of the cool package.  I'm sure candy companies wouldn't put so much effort into designing their candy packs if they didn't think it helped to sell the candy too.  This Lik-M-Aid package was my favorite of this retro candy package collection, but it's well worth clicking the link below and seeing this whole candy package set.

I found this, and many other cool retro candy packages here.
