As bad as the Bubble Gum Cocktail Wienie idea sounds, it gets worse when coupled with the fact that the 16-piece can includes a simmering "red sauce." The whole idea of a chewy hot dog that doesn’t dissolve just isn’t right.
The relatively low price point of $4.95 makes this an ideal gag gift for times where you need to pick up a present purely out of obligation or guilt.
You know what they say. If there’s someone willing to make it, there’s someone willing to buy it! This gift sure fits that bill.
