Zit Poppers Candy. YOU try to write an article about this. OK, they are soft and when squeezed, a [bloody-looking ooze](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gupperz) comes out.

There are available in two wonderful flavors, Strawberry and Watermelon. This amazingly revolting candy is sure to break out. I can't wait for the Bacne version or the spinoff basal cell carcinoma version.

**Implications** - [Acne and pimples](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pimple-patch-designs) are an unfortunate thing that can affect self confidence. Combining acne with [tasty sweets such as candy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bazooka-candy-brands-halloween) is bizarre, but also a unique confectionery combination that does attract consumers. Thus, businesses shouldn't be afraid to create far-fetched ideas, as consumers looking for humor in day-to-day living will most likely embrace them.
