Offensive or not? Breaking Cupcakes.

The article: http://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2013/09/16/breaking_bad_cupcakes_glasgow_s_evening_times_takes_the_right_approach_to.html

Basically, people are making cupcakes decorated to look like they're covered in the trademark blue meth, inspired by Breaking Bad. Does anyone think this is offensive? I don't find it any more offensive than the show. In fact, a lot of people don't. But there are like five people who do. Below is an example (since this article couldn't even be bothered to find an image). If anything, they'll probably just be difficult to chew since they're covered with rock candy. That's the real disappointment here.

    The only way I would find this offensive would be if I had a family member or friend who had a meth problem. But since I don't, bring 'em on.

    I like the gum ones with powder in the wrapper. If you blew it looked like you were puffing out smoke. Pretty sweet.

    I havent seen the powder gum ones in a very long time, but you can still get the candy cigarettes at the gas stations!!

    I wouldn't have them at a child's birthday party, but how exactly is it offensive? in fact the "meth" they use in the show is actually candy from a local candy shop.

    So it's a show about people basing over candy.

    I'm just offended by cupcakes in general.


    The fad has gotten way out of control here. It's ridiculous.

    Breaking Bad cupcakes, however, I could make an exception for...

    Actually cupcakes and meth are a good combo - never gain weight from those cupcakes cuz you'll forget to eat again from the meth :-D

    I'm bracing myself for the Cronut Crusades. We're a little slow to catch on here but when we do it completely sweeps the entire nation doesn't it?!
