For those people who compulsively chew their fingernails and wish they could stop, have we got a deal for you!

Coming next year in a range of colours and flavours.

       A friend once told me off for trimming my nails in his room, as when he picked up a clipping from the floor and chewed on it he liked to know that it was his.

       It's about time I hang nailed-it anyway.   

       It's a useful product that allows you to preserve your nails while still chewing fingernails.   

       They could be harvested from prisoners and the poor and homeless then processed for consumption.

       I envisioned a bucket of assorted nails serving no useful purpose whatsoever. I guess both of us had our dreams shattered.
