I'd never seen this Cookie Monster parody of "I Love It", but I now love it.

Candy In The Media - Life Savers Rock!

I never thought of Life Savers as being the candy choice of the cool crowd, but what do I know.

Candy In The Media - A Clever Chance The Wrapper Kit Kat

I love a good pun (just check out the homepage on Candy Critic), and so I love the idea of cross promoting Chance the Rapper, on a wrapper.

This was beautiful to watch, however I did shed a tear for all of the lost candy.

Listen to this old school Fry's Turkish Delight commercial's theme music get turned into modern techno.

Warning, if songs get easily stuck in your head, do not watch this video.  Worst of all, if food jingles make you hungry, and songs get easily stuck in your head, really don't watch this video.  I'm going to go eat a Kit Kat and a box of Rice-A-Roni.

My good friend Mark sent me this video.  While songs about smoking pot and eating junk food are fairly common, I really like the way the Kottonmouth Kings get very specific about the treats they love.  If I had any musical talent I'd probably be producing songs on the same subject... Except I'd probably cut out the drug references.

This really makes me wish I could see things in slow motion without a camera. Nothing is more trippy than watching food dance around on a sub-woofer. It not only entertains the mind, but after you're done it'll entertain the taste buds.

I never thought of the guy from Hootie and the Blow fish as a Christmas crooner, but he really pulls it off.  Whenever I think about Christmas songs like this I gag a little, then when I'm sitting down on a cool December's night I can't help but feel a little warmer when they're playing.  There's just something so relaxing and warm about songs like this.  I personally can't wait to sit in my living room with a mug of hot cocoa, enjoying the smooth sounds of Christmas with the smell of a Christmas tree filling the room.  Good job Hootie guy, you made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. My only complaint, not enough mention of candy canes.

Man this is a depressing song.  I've learned two things about Dolly Parton listening to this song.  First of all she really gets sad around Christmas time, I mean she's really not that happy at all.  Secondly, I get the feeling that like many people, Dolly Parton does not like hard Christmas candy.  I wonder if she had the same experience as I did.  When I was a kid my mom would put out hard candy at Christmas and most of it wouldn't be touched, then it would sit in the bowl for months, forgotten. Eventually I'd be desperate enough to try and eat some but by then it would have hardened into a solid lump. I'd try and break pieces off, and I'd inevitably cut myself on the hard candy scaring my hands and my interest in Christmas candy forever.

(Thanks to Mark for his song suggestion)

Best Candy Commercial Ever by tlsmith1138

I have to admit, I'm kind of shocked by this commercial.  I'm shocked that Butterfinger would associate their candy with the song Babies Got Back, and I'm even more shocked they way they made this song even a little more edgy.  I'm not really offended by this commercial, in fact any shock I have is out of respect.  It's good to see candy companies going out on a limb, even if it's a really strange one.

Friday Candy Video

So with all of this Mike and Ike fun we've been having this week, you're probably asking yourself, "Does Mike and Ike have a hip hop rap video?"  I'm glad you asked, and I'm even more glad that we have an answer for you that includes cheerleaders and a man bathing in a giant tub of Strawberry Mike and Ikes.
