Review: Abba-Zaba Peanut Butter & Jelly Taffy & Man Sues Apple for Porn Addiction. YES.
Junk Food Nation, in case you missed it, I discussed yesterday the most recent baby with superpowers…check it out here.
But in other “Wow, I’m so glad my profession is held in such high regard” news, a man is sing Apple, Inc. You know, the iPhone makers. But he’s not suing the tech giant for copyright infringement. Nope.
He’s suing Apple for enabling him to access pornography and causing him to become addicted.
The linked article above has all the details; you can read it for yourself. The best part of the article is “Placing blame on Apple for not warning him of the dangers of pornography, Sevier explains he’s now saddled with a lifelong porn addiction.” The article goes onto say that Apple knew or should have known that allowing access to porn would have had an impact on his life, ruining his marriage, and causing his emotional distress to the point of hospitalization. All I can say to that last part is, er…you’re doing it too hard, dude. (yikes)
The best part? According to this article, it all started when this dude was trying to visit Facebook.com but accidentally typed in F*ckbook.com. Accidentally. “The Tennessee dad said the ‘F***book’ site ‘appealed to his biological sensibilities as a male,’ and he started to prefer the images on the screen to his own wife.” Yeah, I bet it did.
The REAL QUESTION that NO ONE is asking in this case is…this guy is 36 YEARS OLD. You’re expecting me to believe that he NOT know about porn BEFORE buying a MacBook?? Apparently so. Or maybe a bigger question – did this guy NOT HAVE INTERNET before he was 36 years old?? What is this, the Truman Show??? When I was a little kid, there was only dial-up, and I ALREADY knew what boobs were, and that I wanted to see them. All the time.
Anyways, I’ll be interested to see how this case turns out. In other news, I’m suing Minka Kelly, Emmanuelle Chiqrui, and Kate Upton for being too hot. Evil temptresses.
Today’s junk food: Abba-Zaba Peanut Butter & Jelly Taffy!
Abba-Zaba Peanut Butter & Jelly Taffy was bought at a 99 cent store in LA with Actor Sis. There’s really no good story to this – it looked crazy and even my sister raised an eyebrow when I suggested purchase. Looks like I’m on my own with this pink checkerboard wrapped candy.
Abba-Zaba Peanut Butter & Jelly Taffy is made by Annabelle Candy Co. Annabelle makes taffy, in general, with peanut butter centers. This strawberry variety is newer, I guess. Normally it comes vanilla outside, peanut butter center, which i guess doesn’t sound too bad – sort of like a peanut chew? No? Nothing like a Peanut Chew. Got it.
Ok, let’s open up this monstrosity…this Abba-Zaba Peanut Butter & Jelly Taffy:
Abba-Zaba Peanut Butter & Jelly Taffy looks like a big tongue when unwrapped. Scary – but not unlike many taffies I’ve had. Now and Later, Airheads – it all looks weird like this. The weird not-bright-pink color was a bit unsettling.
The first thing I did with this Abba-Zaba Peanut Butter & Jelly Taffy was to take a bit (at right) and then STTTRRREEETTTCCCCH it apart! When stretched, this particular taffy looked like already chewed bubble gum, or a sea monster. I smelled slight strawberry and slight peanut butter – but nothing especially strong.
But how was the TASTE if this Abba-Zaba Peanut Butter & Jelly Taffy? Well…it was NOT my favorite. But that could be because I have no real interest in taffy to begin with. It’s a chewy candy substance that sticks to your teeth. Not my favorite. BUT, if you DO like taffy, I’ll break down the flavor for you.
First taste I got, besides sugar, was actually the peanut butter flavor on the inside – sort of ended up being a peanut butter flavor that sat on top of a chewy sugary substance. The PB resemebled more of a sugary Reese’s filling than the salty PB I’m used to. The slight lightly sweet strawberry flavor came out only after a while of chewing, to mix with the PB flavor. Did it taste like peanut butter and jelly? Not to me. Basically, this still just tasted like sweet peanut butter taffy with a hint of fruit taste added in. Not my favorite, but not BAD, in objective terms.
In the end, everything in my mouth was just chewy and sugary, so that’s good. But I’ll not buy this again.
PURCHASED AT: 99 cent Store
COST: ummmmm

That looks borderline inedible.
You unwrapped a giant tongue. Ew.
@Shorneys: yeah, I thought the same thing. Lucky no taste buds

@Adi: Only if your lox was plasticky

@Kahn: Hey, works for me!
I don’t really care for Apple at all, but that’s just ridiculous by any standard. I hope that guy gets laughed out of court, and possibly out of the country.
@Devin: It seems funny to me he’s not suing the porn companies themselves!
I cannot believe this hasn’t been said already but,
“Abba Zaba you’re my only friend”
