Disgusting, brilliant, or possibly both?
Tic Tac announcedthat it will create limited edition hummus-flavored candies in honor of Israel Independence Day.
The chick pea-tinged mints will be given out on the holiday during celebrations on Rothschild Boulevard in Tel Aviv starting May 1. They’ll be available in grocery stores through the end of May.
Last year, the mint manufacturers created limited edition blue and white candies to celebrate Israel’s 68th birthday. We can hardly wait to learn what they’ll think up for 70.
