Hot Slut Of The Day!
Doctor Dreadful Food Lab!
Doctor Dreadful stuff still exists today, but it hit its peak in the 90s when Tyco, the makers of DD, started selling the Easy-Bake Oven for the disgusting “eat your own snots” set. Doctor Dreadful was like Creepy Crawlers, but while eating Creepy Crawlers may have caused your parents to shake their heads all pissed-off like after you end up in the ER, you could actually eat Doctor Dreadful’s creations. Hey, I didn’t say they were edible. I just said you could eat them.
The tagline for the Doctor Dreadful Food Lab was “looks gross but tastes great” (not to be confused with “looks gross and tastes gross” which is the tagline for my ass), because the whole point of it was to create nasty-looking candy. The DDFL kit was made up of a bunch of shit used to create gross rubbery candy including packets of sugary gelatin powder. You mixed the “magic” powder with water and then used the molds and bowls to churn out crap like monster skin, spiders, roaches, and monster brains. The commercial, which starred Christopher Lloyd’s understudy, was full-on 90s:
There was also a Doctor Dreadful Drink Lab, so you could wash down your sugary shit-tasting monster skin with worm juice and monster warts:
By the time Doctor Dreadful Food and Drink Lab came out, I was a little too old for this mess. That’s unfortunate, because it’s something I would’ve begged to get for Christmas. And since I’m lazy and was deprived of sugary stuff, I would’ve just skipped the “creation” part and went straight to snorting the sugar powder.
