Sweet has been done and so has sour, but now spicy food lovers can rejoice with the Firebox Evil Hot Gummi Bears. These treats are infused with habanero chili to give them that extra kick.
Dubbed by their packaging as 'Satan Spawns,' these candies are a great test for those adventurous enough to take on the little devils. Perhaps a friendly competition is in order to see who can tame the baby bears. Yet, for anyone smart enough to steer clear of trying themselves, they would make for an ingenius gag gift.
Not to mention the site origin story for the Evil Hot Gummi Bears is a hilarious take on the three bears story. According to Geekosystem.com, "Beelzibear, the Antipooh, and over a bottle of tequila and a bowl of chilli, reached something of an agreement."
