Laser-imprinted sugar glass discs.
Might have to make them a bit thicker than regular CDs, but I think it is feasible.-- DrCurry, Aug 13 2002 Preston's Candy & Ice Cream http://www.prestonscandy.comThey make chocolate CDs. Not functional, but I think they come in a CD case! [monkeywidget, Oct 04 2004, last modified Oct 05 2004] Pop it in your CD drive and watch Capn Crunch commercials!-- BinaryCookies, Aug 13 2002 Good for that mid-morning sugar craving while stuck at the office. Can we make them in pixie stick flavors?-- Susen, Aug 13 2002 Novel for practical jokes. Mid-meeting. Everybody's tense. Suddenly, blurt out "I CAN'T TAKE IT ANY MORE!" as you ingest an M$ office lookalike.-- watermelancholy, Aug 13 2002 waterm, how many tense meetings have *you* been stuck in? :-)
(too much insight for a 13 year old!)-- Susen, Aug 13 2002 Not if he is a boy scout. Look up your local troop, and sit through a meeting as you watch frazzled adult leaders try to get 5 groups of 8 kids to take care of a task as simple as creating a menu for 2-day campout.-- BinaryCookies, Aug 13 2002 Thanks. I help out at my dad's office from time. Making coffee runs and the like, but I butt in when necessary. =D [By the way, on my 'lookalike' comment: Ice cream parlors here have a service they call Freeze Frame-- in which an image is printed on sugar 'paper' and put on a cake. Is this viable here?]-- watermelancholy, Aug 13 2002 I know it wasn't an actual functioning CD, but Microsoft did distribute chocolate CD's in a jewel case at a seminar I attended a couple of years ago. I think it may have been DevDays.-- half, Aug 13 2002 1) Open AOL CD case. Insert into CD-ROM drive 2) Follow onscreen directions 3) Eject CD 4) Peel off foil and enjoy a tart citrus or fresh berry flavor treat.
I don't think they'd work quite the same in the microwave, however..-- Mr Burns, Aug 13 2002 Apparently FreezeFrame is a trademark of Baskin & Robbin. But it still sounds very viable for CDs.-- watermelancholy, Aug 13 2002 Keep them away from CD burners.-- FarmerJohn, Aug 13 2002 <off-topic>FreezeFrame is also a trademark of Optical and Electronic Research.</off-topic>-- angel, Aug 13 2002 UB: Anything more than 5-6 seconds and you're looking to enjoy a side order of fried magnetron as well..-- Mr Burns, Aug 13 2002 Glad you rectified that before I had to institute a google search. I thought you were insulting Pop.-- watermelancholy, Aug 13 2002 ok, so if you buy a new album and it turns out you think it sucks, then you eat it? lol....after paying like $20 for it too cause of all the copyright-- dingbats247, Aug 14 2002 UB: As long as lentil flour contains a small percentage of water, it probably would not hurt the microwave. I don't even know what a poppadum is, in my limited experience with food consumption..-- Mr Burns, Aug 14 2002 Poppadum preach...
I don't think breadible CD's would last very long. And who would market the requisite players? Pan-asonic?
This idea is still good, though, especially if the sugar discs actually played music.-- polartomato, Aug 16 2002 Lamb cops?
Different flavo(u)rs for different music. I'm imagining Ozzy Razzberry or Pepsi Brittney.
I bet Oasis would taste horrible.-- waugsqueke, Aug 16 2002 And then you could have a special toilet which plays the CD when it's coming out the old digestion system-- amazing, Aug 16 2002 OH NO! I just ate my favorite song. DANG!-- jeffman, Jul 25 2003 Why is my CD player covered in ants?-- Worldgineer, Nov 20 2003 Perfect for The Archies, I should imagine.-- Fishrat, Jul 28 2004 Basically, this won't work because the disc will fly apart at operating RPM. However, I like it anyway.-- zigness, Mar 15 2006 I don't think sugar glass would fall apart... What can the reflective inside be made of?-- Voice, Jul 19 2007 random, halfbakery
