I've seen these at a few Harry Potter parties mocking what you were talking about above, and people taste them just out of curiosity, it never fails. You can get them here if you're interested. http://www.candyfavorites.com/jelly-belly-bean-boozled-box Jelly Belly did make the Beanboozled box that has disgusting flavored beans such as skunk spray and toothpaste, and I don’t think they actually did too bad.

The candy, which seemed to be somewhat addictive, caused adults' brains to revert to their teenage states, resulting in lots of chaos for Sunnydale. It's one of my favorite episodes from the series (written by the very funny Jane Espenson, BTW)..."I took tae kwon do at the Y", "Whoa, Summers! You drive like a spaz!", etc. One fictional product that I’d probably rather not see in mass market is “Milkbar”, the enchanted milk chocolate candy bar that was sold on Buffy the Vampire Slayer in Band Candy (Season 3, episode 6).
