Straight from God: fish-shaped mints
I guess I shouldn't make fun since I like goldfish-shaped crackers, but I will anyway: mmmmmmmmm, fishy goodness!

Saw these at the Dillard House in NE Georgia, a wonderful place except perhaps for their judgment in which candies to display by the cash register.

3. Obviously you've never seen the full line of Bible Bars.
They all sound like they should be porn movies...

"Seeds of Samson"
"Rachel's Delight"

Et cetera. There's about 6 or 7 varieties, but those are the ones I remember.

5. Yeah, they were trying to cash in "The Maker's Diet."
Honestly, they were pretty good. Most people seemed to buy them for the humor value, though. NJ isn't really big on the fundie crowd.

6. The 'Bible Bar' actually sounds like it could be tasty:
The Bible Bar is a highly nutritious, all natural nutritional bar made from the seven foods (traditionally referred to as the seven species) that God calls good in the Book of Deuteronomy: wheat, barley, vines (raisins), figs, pomegranates, olive oil, and honey.

Noah's Nuggets, not so much. They also have Abraham's Bosom, although I'm not really clear how man-boobs relate to nutrition bars...

8. Don't let the name put you off, "Noah's Nuggets" are tasty.
I was also a fan of "Elijah's Fire" and this one almond marizpan-y bar they had, but I don't see on the website. I'm guessing that was probably "Rachel's Delight."

16. It's true
For example, March of the Penguins was made by a French film crew.

14. Testa-mints
I was looking to post a picture of them and came across this
http://www.formar.com/testamints.html
"Unfortunately, TESTAMINTS is not available at this time. If you wish to see other Christian candies, please click here...."

17. I was assured that I could get my Testamints
at the Christian supperstore (really, that's what it says) by these people http://classifieds.christianpost.com/view_obj.htm?id=1645 but when I got there http://www.christiandollarstore.com/ searching revealed no Testamints. But I can comfort myself with a talking Jesus doll http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/christiandollarstore_1916_33655086 (should be an image there, but since there's no .jpg extension, I kind of expect that there won't be. Ah well, http://www.christiandollarstore.com/ne12tabijedo.html)

If you've just got to have Testamints, these guys claim they've got 'em: http://www.clubthings.com/product1049.html
