    I think I would actually cry in frustration and throw this cone around if trying to get a piece of chocolate out of this thing and why does it have to be pink anyway?

    Its "lavender" ;)

    Hahahaha!!! I had to look it up!!! Hilarious and disgusting at the same time!! I have something similar for my baby to keep them from choking. Yuck, mesh in my mouth!! Plus, it would just really make me furious...:)

    Bizarre.
    I like the pics of cutting a twinkie in half and putting one in the bag. So now I have an open package with half a twinkie left over. Know what I would do with the other half? EAT IT.
    And the pics of the hersey kisses. So I am supposed to peel the foil off and not pop one in my mouth. I don't think so.

    To be honest, it makes me gag to even think about it. Once you have licked it a couple of times, the mesh will become sodden with your own saliva, which then seeps onto the food you're trying to eat, making it a mush of spit and chocolate which you then want to such up? Ugh, no thank you, that's enough in itself to put me off eating. Full stop. The same result can be achieved through a sweaty sock!
    Yeahh that was the first place my mind went. Vom.

    These are about the dumbest thing I think I've ever laid eyes on. I'm with all of you...sounds gross! Plus, the website is misleading...it shows them putting half a Twinkie and such in there, but if you read all of the site, you can only use 3 Hershey's kisses or a single flavor of gummy bear, nothing else.

    Geez, that's 5 minutes of my life I'll never get back... :grumble:

    It's the same principal as chew your food at least 100 times each bite but in a slower motion.
    Just put a hersey kisses in your month and let it melt on it's own.

    I'd rather have a piece of dark chocolate since it has health benefits and just enjoy it.

    LOL - Their website says, "Skinny Pods' unique micro-pore matrix increases the surface area of food in your mouth by more than a thousand-fold, fully satisfying you with far fewer calories."

    Not sure how these things give you "far fewer calories" if you still eat the whole thing of whatever. It just makes it last longer?

    This is EXACTLY what I thought. If I'm going to have to fraction my cupcake down, what am I going to do with it? Also, can't you just imagine trying to do this out in public? "Oh, I'm sorry-Please hold on while I cut this into a sliver of what you gave me then suck crazily at my fake ice cream cone."

    This is the exact same "tool" they use for babies with food aversions...so they can start working them into actually eating real food...seems kinda gross...you just basically "gum" the flavor out of whatever you put into the mesh screen. YUCK!

    http://www.skinnypods.com/common-questions.html#question-12

    'Take the Skinny Pod containing the kisses or gummi bears into your mouth. Roll them around with your tongue, and enjoy the flavor. Suck, swish, but don't chew. Continue for at least 15 minutes'

    Mmmm - this sounds a bit questionable? :embarassed:

    why not just keep a chocolate kiss in your mouth until it melts if this is the entire case? or a gummy or whatever you're craving?

    thats basically selling chew/spit eating disorder!!! Can you say ulcers?!?! um, if I want cake I want to be able to EAT it! not just lick it. these people are probably going to get some lawsuits in a couple years because their product gave users health problems, just like chew/spit:noway:

    I can just see some dumb@$$ swallowing the mesh thingy or getting pieces of it down them and suing... Yep... ITs gonna happen...

    One of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen! And this from someone who watched an inordinate amount of QVC as a child (it was the only station my crappy tv reliably got in my bedroom)
