Don’t know what to serve at your next picnic? Nothing says yum more than the meat of a mythical mythical animal.
Seeing a can of Unicorn Meat on offer, or surreptitiously stored amongst your other canned good, will give the unsuspecting quite the shock. Though what’s inside the can is not edible and certainly does NOT look like the photo to the right. Instead, the can contains a dismembered stuffed unicorn. Check it out in the photo, before, especially before giving this canned unicorn meat to a kid (lest you inadvertently send a young’un into years of therapy).

Yet, for a surprisingly large number of people, that unusual combination is tasty. $20.50 for three 3-ounce boxes

Back in college we used to do shots of wasabi as a sort of dare. These days we don’t need a lubricated party to blow our sinuses with an overdose of Japanese horseradish. All we need is some wasabi gum—it offers that spicy kick to the nose in chewable form. Sadly, we don’t know of any sushi flavored gum but hold out hope of finding some.
