It’s never too early to start thinking about Christmas! Though the festive occasion is still more than three months away, that hasn’t stopped Archie McPhee, a Seattle-based store known for its wild and wacky products, from getting into the holiday spirit a tad early.
The West Coast retailer recently debuted kale candy canes, a festive, yet questionable product, for the holiday season. According to the Archie McPhee website, these green and white-striped “treats” are “garden fresh” and have “all the flavor of kale with none of the nutrition.” The candies, the first of their kind, also promise to make all your Christmas dreams come true.
Still, as Archie McPhee’s director of awesome, David Wahl, told Today Food, even though these candy canes feature a holiday-appropriate color palette, don’t let them fool you. “We do want to warn people that the green color of the candy cane might lead someone to believe that it has a minty flavor,” he explained. “We wouldn’t want anyone to be fooled into eating one accidentally.”
