Here’s a pretty stupid idea. Make a brightly colored and tasty candy in the exact shape and size of small hard plastic Lego building blocks. I don’t know about you but I’m not entirely sure that my 18 month old is capable of discerning the difference between candy and plastic. Someone at Lego Headquarters better put the Corporate Counsel on speed dial. I can almost see the legions of plaintiff’s attorneys lining up to file lawsuits over this one.

Hmmm. The manufacturers of these Lego candies should also consider creating some gummy combination of high fructose corn syrup and Red Dye #10 in the image of:

* Electrical outlets
* Small magnets
* Lighters
* Light Bulbs
* Kitchen Knives
* Small Coins
* Play-Doh
* the contents of the litter box

Sure to confound the developing toddler brain and discerning palates, alike. Not to mention the trachea. Ah, capitalism.

Not too far fetched. Remember candy cigaretts?
