We have some tough news, so we're just going to break it to you without any sidestepping: mac and cheese candy canes now exist. The beguiling creation comes from Archie McPhee, the novelty brand previously responsible for pickle-flavored candy canes. Oh, and in case you were wondering, this new flavor is modeled specifically after instant mac and cheese. (Yes, the kind that comes with powdered cheese that your kids beg to eat for every meal.)

Food blogger JunkFoodMom tried the candy, and it actually doesn't sound like it was a complete disaster. The blogger wrote, "This one isn't bad! Smells like cheese and tastes like mac n cheese but the sweetness overpowers the flavor eventually so it's doable." If you're into that sort of thing, the pack of six candy canes is available for $6.
