Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a box of Pooh

I admit it. I like to eat Pooh.

It seems other people don’t share my yearning for a chunk of the brown stuff.

The day after Valentine’s Day, there will be piles of solid milk-chocolate Winnie the Pooh boxes in the discount aisle. That’s when I’ll scoop up the Pooh.

Here’s a few other items you might find next to Pooh on February 15th:

‘The Perfect Man’ ($2.96 at Wal-Mart) is a solid milk-chocolate candy shaped like, well, the perfect man. The muscular man of (chocolate) color wears white boxer shorts spotted with hearts. Yum.

The Hollow Milk Chocolate Apple ($1.99 at Kroger). Just in case the apple-shaped candy doesn’t entice you, they’ve included an added bonus. You get a real fruit juice Gummy Worm inside. Wow. Almost as good as Pooh!

The ’Date Ball’ ($4.99 at Kroger), is made by those amazing psychics at the Magic 8 Ball company. The ’Date Ball’ will answer all of your dating questions. Does she have a social disease? Will her dad really force me to marry her? Is it OK to date my sister?

I asked the amazing ‘Date Ball’ one simple question: “Who buys this stuff?” The answer was slowly revealed - “I don’t know.”

At least you know the ball is honest!
