If it’s bad, doesn’t it stop being candy? Candy has a half-life, decaying into just “food” by the time nobody regards it as a treat - something invented to be unenjoyable can be considered to decay completely in less than a second, from the moment it gets off production line.
Completely disagree. Show me an example of “candy” becoming “food”. The definition of candy is basically a concentrated sugar product. Lots of people hate black licorice, but that doesnt make it not-candy.
Semi-relevant: I think that pancakes (not crepes) and waffles should be considered dessert, but here people eat them as the main course or part of the main course. I don’t know if they were ever considered dessert though.
Also semi-relevant: fruit. Multiple kinds chopped in a bowl? Dessert. One whole singular item? A healthy snack/food item.
If we are allowed to count things that aren’t sold as candy, this technically does exist. They sell bitterants for various things. Like to stop a child sucking their thumb or discourage pets from chewing/eating something.
Bitter Boys. Think Sour Patch kids, but instead of being coated in sour powder, it’s extreme bitterness.
Kind of sounds awesome. Bitter sweets are special
I’ll take it, I guess. I was just trying to think of something so bad nobody would ever make it.
Bitrex Jolly Rancher
Some liquorice definitely counts as bitter to me

I mean, I was talking about candy specifically, not dessert as a whole.

But has anyone put it on gummy candy?
Not exactly what you asked, but Myreli makes a bitter melon flavored gummy.
Apparently, yes.
Haribo does make bitter flavored gummy bears sold by prank shops.
Aww dang.
