A Chocolate Bytes Contest!

I’ve wanted to do a contest here for a little while but had a hard time coming up with prize ideas since actually sending chocolate right now isn’t much of an option (still way too hot). So when I did my post the other day about the theobromine molecule t-shirts a lightbulb went off and I had my prize!
You now have the chance to be the owner of a Theobromine Molecule T-shirt! There are two ways to enter, please read carefully:
Get two submissions to win: Leave a comment here with a link to the most obscure and/or bizarre chocolate item you can find online. Link to this contest from your own site or weblog and include the URL to the entry with your submission and you now have two chances to win!
OR
Get one submission to win: If you can’t find something obscure or bizarre then just link to this contest from your own site or weblog and comment here with a link to your entry; this is good for one chance to win! (I need to be able to see it though, so make sure it’s not a locked or friends-only entry.)
That’s it! If it’s something you actually own then take a picture of it, upload it to a site like Flickr and leave the URL in the comments of this entry. Make sure you leave a valid email address with your submission (it will not be displayed on the site and will not be used for anything else), and a URL if you have one so I can feature everyone at the end of the contest.
The contest will run until August 31 at 11:59pm Pacific. A name will then be drawn from the eligible submissions on September 1 using the super technical method of pieces of paper in a hat, and the winner will be notified by email and announced here on the site. The winner will then need to send me their mailing address to have the t-shirt sent to, so if you’re not comfortable with that then please don’t enter (though it will never be used for anything else).
This is open to residents of the continental U.S. and Canada only.
If you’re in the US: You can choose between the ThinkGeek style (Women’s style, pink on brown) or the Moleculewear styles (regular or girlie style, green on black).
If you’re in Canada: Your shirt will be coming from Moleculewear because they have excellent shipping rates. You can pick the regular or the girlie style, and the colors are green on black.
Disclaimers
- If you win you’ll need to provide my with the t-shirt size you’d like. You don’t get a choice on which molecule you’d like, though – this is a chocolate site, you’re stuck with chocolate!
- If you pick the wrong size and wish to exchange it the responsibility is yours: I will not pay for shipping back to the store and then back again to you.
- You are responsible for any applicable taxes.
- I am not responsible for printing mess-ups, shipment re-scheduling, or laundry mishaps.
Good luck!!

Woo chocolate!
Okay, you asked for it, but you may be sorry!
Chocka-Ca-Ca – Lumps of chocolate wrapped up in a diaper. Meant to be used as a baby shower gag gift. Well, GAG is right!
Sherry, that’s gross.
Oh my gosh. That is so gross Sherry. You did ask for it Heather.
I aim to please!
Oh Sherry that’s nasty! Perfect!
Wow Sherry, that is truly disgusting.
But if you’re looking for *bizarre* how about a chocolate cheeseburger? Literally.
Not in the mood? Perhaps their TV dinner is more to your liking…
Oh Jenn. I am repulsed and intrigued at the same time.
Jenn that is also nasty. You and Sherry should go bowling.
Really? I personally thought Sherry’s was way worse.
what about a life size, anatomically correct chocolate Jesus?
You know..it might get more people in our sanctuary on Sundays

LOL at Mar’s!!
Caviar and white chocolate. Mmmmm, microwaved blended…thing.
Carrie, that is truly weird! I’m not a big white chocolate fan and the thought of caviar makes me queasy. So, great find!
Mar, you win at the internet.
LOL
OK, I followed a link here, and I don’t necessarily need to be entered into the contest, but I saw this and had to share with you folks: http://www.pushindaisies.com/candypress/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=224
Anatomically correct!
Or, if you’re more of an intellectual, there’s always this: http://www.pushindaisies.com/candypress/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=223
I won the internet! YAYZ!
(lets hope I win the tee! heh)
Arabelladonn – those are awesome! Love the brain.
Not sure if my trackback will work, so I posted your contest here
Love this contest! What a great idea
It made it! And I love the chocolate voodoo doll!
I want TWO subs!
Here is the bizarre

I know its bizarre because I wrote it.
And here is my post about your contest

By the way, Babylune is hosting a contest until the end of the month. Maybe you could write about going to Hershey, Pennsylvania, or visiting the chocolate museums of Europe?

Chocolate flavored toothpaste? Good or bad I’m not sure.
I wanted to link to one specific item on this page, but since I can’t, and the rest is so bizarre anyway, here’s the whole page http://www.lazyboneuk.com/store/pro501.html
The chocolate covered ants are what I wanted to link. My youngest brother actually ate some once, when he was in primary school. Just the thought of it is enough for me!
I live in America. I live with Alicia.
And I blogged this competition too
Chocolate Brains?
I found Chocolate Toothpaste (but it’s really only chocolate flavored, so I guess it doesn’t count)
http://www.strangenewproducts.com/2005/10/chocolate-toothpaste.html
And also found a chocolate bar that supposedly clears up acne

Here is my entry. I will link to my blog tomorrow. The link is here:http://www.foilwrappedchocolates.com/lachfocof10.html
The submission is the chocolate foot
I blogged about it & found a chocolate bar that clears up acne, I thought that was pretty strange.

Cool contest, I wanna win!
Holy, 37 (now 38 comments) AND gross items. I am so having a chocolate contest! Good idea Heather. I also think the chocolate bar that clears up acne is a little odd considering chocolate doesn’t cause acne. That means –it’s just chocolate. People will sell anything.
I found a chocolate bar made with pink peppercorns and grapefruit.
