Has anyone heard of this candy before? Have you tried this unusually named candy? I had not heard of it until before going to Texas for vacation as my coworker wanted me to bring some back as well as some of the students. I just tried a piece and it was really good. It consists of pecans, corn syrup, sugars, milk solids, butter fat, vegetable fat (soy bean) and salt. It is very good but not very healthy so I better behave myself. LOL It is also very expensive as it is $16 bucks for 12 pieces of this candy.

I have not heard of it, but the name sure does catch ya. Hehhehe. Sounds like something I would enjoy, but $16. is a bit much I think. So, I would pass only for that reason.

I was shocked how much they cost and wonder why they charge so much for this candy.

The candy is pretty good but the cost is too much and not worth the amount of candy that they give you. They should have given the candy a better name I think.

I did try a piece of it when I came home and I like it. It is not my favorite candy but it is pretty good and the pieces are pretty big. It is a weird name for a candy though.

I've seen droppings of various critters, depending upon the location and the store. I bought my mom "Moose Droppings" as she collects moose items. It was cute and of course a completely edible candy! LOL I've made homemade droppings for holidays too... also known as "poop"... snowman poop, reindeer droppings, leprechaun droppings, etc.

Sounds decadent. Wanna share? They actually sound much better than our reindeer droppings which are just solid dark chocolate. You get a little plastice reinder and you have to pump its tail for it to dispence the chocolate.
