December 23, 2010 – We’d all live to see a lot more Christmases if we ate healthier food, but daggone those holidays would be a lot less merry. After all, there’s a reason the patron saint of Christmas is a fat man and all snowmen are round.
I didn’t see a whole lot of innovation from companies this year regarding new Christmas-themed products or product packaging (it sucks when the bad economy hits you where you live). As a result, not everything in this photo essay is new. It just stuck out to me.
Speaking of sticking out, between two months of
Halloween candy and two months of Christmas treats, I am now roughly the shape of that picture from Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's
The Little Prince of the python eating an elephant if you inverted it 90 degrees.
At Christmas time, though, that’s a fine shape, and we should all aspire to be cookie cutters.

Coca-Cola is one of the few companies that can one-up
their own Christmas packaging in the same year. |

Obviously produced for the type of person that
takes pictures of the candy he eats. |

| This stuff'll cure all your Christmas-borne ills. |

| Before... |

| After... |
 |
| They do exist... |

| Jesus is a reason to eat chocolate. |
 |
| I always imagine that Santa himself tastes like chocolate crisp. |
