What Not to Make

Most of the time it’s important to know what your competitors are doing, so you can stay ahead of the game, and possibly be inspired.

But sometimes it’s just as critical to see what they are coming up with - so you can make sure too keep as far away from the concept as possible.

Some of my favorite outrageous (and entirely unappetizing creations) include:

  • Dooey-Gooey cookies. It’s probably not as bad as it sounds, but still…
  • Slime Balls and Gel Tubes. Get ready to eat snacks from a tube!
  • Pur Flavor. Having flavored water come out your tap is simply wrong.
  • Batter Blaster. If you don’t have the 3 minutes it takes to mix pancake batter yourself, you’re right: you clearly have more important things to be concerned about than breakfast.

Have you heard of any strange products? What odd items are you happy you didn’t think of?
