Rhynoplaz comments on You have to invent a new type of candy or dessert, but if it's physically impossible or another commenter can prove it already exists, you lose. What are you making?

Completely disagree. Show me an example of "candy" becoming "food". The definition of candy is basically a concentrated sugar product. Lots of people hate black licorice, but that doesnt make it not-candy.

Semi-relevant: I think that pancakes (not crepes) and waffles should be considered dessert, but here people eat them as the main course or part of the main course. I don't know if they were ever considered dessert though.

Also semi-relevant: fruit. Multiple kinds chopped in a bowl? Dessert. One whole singular item? A healthy snack/food item.

I mean, I was talking about candy specifically, not dessert as a whole.

If we are allowed to count things that aren't sold as candy, this technically does exist. They sell bitterants for various things. Like to stop a child sucking their thumb or discourage pets from chewing/eating something.
