Tonight Ashley and I were at Books-a-Million and we found your Christmas present.
A Poo-lar Bear.
It’s a polar bear that poops candy.
True story, this product exists. I don’t know how, but it does.
I can’t help but wonder how this item was pitched to the company that made it?
Perhaps it happened like this…
Product Pitcher: I have the best idea ever.
Company: Okay, Mike, let’s hear it.
PP: You know how at Christmas time people love candy, right?
Co: Definitely, at Christmas time people DO love candy!
PP: Exactly, and people also love that Coca~Cola polar bear, right?
Co: True, people do love that bear! I LOVE that bear!
PP: Exactly, which is why I have come up with the perfect holiday candy dispenser. It’s not your grandma’s candy bowl, that’s the tagline.
Co: Yeah, I like that… “It’s not your grandma’s candy bowl.” Alright Mike, I like this so far, go on…
PP: Okay, it takes the idea of people liking candy, and people liking polar bears and it puts them together and that’s where we came up with…
(PULLS THE BLACK CLOTH AWAY SO THE PROUCT CAN BE SEEN)
THE POO-LAR BEAR!
It’s a polar bear that poops candy.
Co: I love it. Brilliant, Mike. Brilliant! I LOVE IT! I can see a whole line of animals pooping candy!
Mike leaves the meeting thinking… More candy pooping animals, huh?
Which is probably how we ended with a jelly bean pooping bah-humbug sheep.
Aaaaand the one I’m getting for my mom, a Waddling Penguin Pooper.

Don’t laugh…or maybe do. I love penguins and one of my friends gave me the pooping penguin as part of my wedding present. Not for sure what they were thinking, but I never could bring myself to eat the chocolate that came out of it!
