Somebody\u2019s idea of a new fun way to eat chocolate.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This seems so wrong, I can\u2019t ignore it. According to the New York Daily News<\/a>, this month Disney World in Orlando, FL, has been selling chocolate treats shaped like animal dung.<\/p>\n

They don\u2019t name them as such, instead the \u201cMatch the Species\u201d desserts are labelled with the names of animals. For example, \u201celephant\u201d is a blob of chocolate peanut butter fudge rolled in oatmeal and coconut flakes. \u201cGiraffe\u201d is smaller pellets of caramel chocolate fudge. But just one look and you know this isn\u2019t some chocolate version of animal crackers.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not sure what public reaction at the park was like to these new treats during the 2 weeks they were sold at Zuri\u2019s Sweets Shop in the Harambe Marketplace of the Animal Kingdom section, but as of June 29, 2015, Disney will no longer be selling the faux poop<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Putting the \u201cgag\u201d in gag gifts, Disney\u2019s \u201cMatch the Species\u201d desserts are supposed to look like poop.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you\u2019re sorry you missed this limited-time treat, watch TheTimTracker and his wife Jenn try all 4 types of the scat-themed desserts in Eating Animal Poop At Disney’s Animal Kingdom?!?<\/a> (You can stop watching after 6:37 when they ramble on to other areas and topics.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
