"Like the Benihana shrimp special, the good stuff is produced booth side. Get it from the spinner, collected on a white, conical, paper stick."

I have never eaten supermarket cotton candy. I have only eaten it at the fair or at the circus. Good memories. I don't think I have eaten it as an adult. I have not been anywhere where it's been available, not that I can remember, anyway.

Cotton candy is a scam

Oh man, earlier this year I almost bought my own cotton candy machine. The worst part is cleaning up after. It may be weird but I think it would be fun to be the guy handing out cotton candy at birthday and block parties.

Cotton candy tastes neither blue nor pink

Sno cones are the real treat (shave ice if any of you folks are from the islands of Hawaii) . The purple tastes purple. The red tastes red. You see my point

Yeah but that damn snow cone juice, gets EVERYWHERE. And gnats and skeeters love that sh!t. Down here the tents/carts are full of bugs.

There is a reason I am thinking about this. I am considering a new career.

Team up with the pirate and his bird to dominate the bourbon street cotton candy market?

Cotton Candy...spun from the sides...is ambrosia on a paper tube. Haven't had it in years, but that's what my memories tell me.
