# Unborn Baby Bonbons The Gummy Fetus is a Terrifying Little Treat By Renee Ramsarran | Published 2011-02-08 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gummy-fetus References: [foolishgadgets](http://foolishgadgets.com/201101/gummy-fetus/) & [stupid](http://www.stupid.com/fun/GFETUS.html) I can hardly imagine chowing down on this Gummy Fetus as it ranks pretty high on my grossed-out meter. But for those whose stomachs aren’t as sensitive as mine, this [strange little candy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monsters-approved-candies) comes in a [strawberry flavor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gupperz). Retailing at $6.79 each, I can’t imagine purchasing these for a bachelor party or baby shower, as suggested. The Gummy Fetus is available at Stupid.com, and comes with a serious warning: “Enjoy our candy in safety and stay far far away from hospitals, real feti, and people with no sense of humor.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 36% | Activity: 48% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Strange Candy Confections:** There is a growing trend of unique and unconventional candy creations, like the Gummy Fetus, that appeal to those seeking unusual and daring culinary experiences. - **Controversial Food Products:** Controversial food items, such as the Gummy Fetus, are gaining attention and sparking discussions about the boundaries of taste and acceptability in the food industry. - **Humorous Edible Novelties:** Humorous and shocking edible novelties, like the Gummy Fetus, are becoming popular among individuals looking for unconventional gifts or party items. ### Where This Applies - **Specialty Candy:** The specialty candy industry has the potential to tap into the market for unconventional and unique confections, catering to individuals seeking out-of-the-ordinary sweets. - **Food Manufacturing:** Food manufacturers can explore the production of controversial food products, like the Gummy Fetus, to target consumers who enjoy daring and boundary-pushing culinary experiences. - **Novelty Gifts:** The novelty gift industry can capitalize on the demand for humorous and shocking items, such as the Gummy Fetus, by offering a wide range of unconventional edible novelties. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Millennial-Targeted Gummy Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rotten-gummy-worms.md) - [Breakfast-Themed Gummy Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bacon-eggs-shaped-sweet-gummy-candies.md) - [Fizzing Skull-Shaped Candy Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-sour-scary-skulls.md) - [Tiny Sour Gummy Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fizzy-whizzy-weenie-worms.md) - [Halloween-Themed Gummy Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bebeto-spooky-mix.md) - [Oversized Gummy Bear Lollipops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clever-candy-big-bear-pop.md) - [Pasta-Themed Gummy Candies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/macaroni-cheese-gummies.md) - [Jumbo Gummy Bear Lollipops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nassau-candy.md) - [Cheeky Chewy Candy Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jelly-belly-belly-buttons.md)
