Candy Lovers Upset Everlasting Gobstoppers Aren't Truly Everlasting

Posted on 01/10/2020 at 10:10 am

ILLINOIS - Fans of Willy Wonka's candies were outraged when they realized the Everlasting Gobstoppers they've been sucking on for nearly fifteen years eventually became smaller and smaller before dissolving completely. The spherical hard candies were originally released to the public in mid-2005, but an undetected flaw in the original recipe meant that the name turned out to be "very misleading", according to several formerly loyal customers. What do you think?

"I ain't waiting fifteen more years to find out whether the one I just bought yesterday is everlasting!" - Yelena Smith, university student

"Worst 50 cents I've ever spent in my entire fucking life." - Joe Russell, lottery ticket printer

"Given our current political climate, I'm well aware that absolutely no one is to be trusted these days...not even Willy Wonka." - Tyson Black, teacher
