FOOD BUZZ: Along similar lines as the infamous Harry Potter jelly beans, these disgustingly-flavored jelly beans come in a box mixed with the regular flavors. We’re not sure why anyone would eat these, but we might consider it if there was a Kinko’s flavor. Mmmm, office supplies!

FOOD BUZZ: Mars has partnered with Dunkin’ Donuts to create the M&M’s Donut and the Milky Way Hot Chocolate. Reminiscent of Homer Simpson piling candy on his donut and trying to pass it off as sprinkles, the M&M’s donut is a cartoon fantasy made reality.
