Welcome to my Candy Store! (Willy Wonka Management Quest.)

Reader mode
Good ole' Joe. I like 'em.

[X] Plan: One if by land, Two if by sea
-[X] Motor Oil Lozenges: The lozenges are clear, showing a substance that looks alarmingly like motor oil in all respects, but tastes of peppermint. Once fully dissolved, it causes the body to work at peak condition for 24 hours, with the side effect of periodic exhaust fumes coming from the ears (harmless but smells of motor oil).
-[X] Swifty Seas: These wavy wonders are always rolling like the sea, whenever you drink it, you gain the ability to breathe and see crystal clear under the waves and can swim as fast as any fish! It's also enough to keep anyone's thirst quenched for a full day on its own!
-[X] Take a boat. 10 Wealth.

I've got to say, I'm a bit worried about going on a boat, but I like your line of thinking.
 
If we're going to use a boat; why not pick a yacht then?
Its a bigger and more personalized boat.
We easily have the money for it.
Let's make this trip in style.

I dunno bout you, but I feel it's too gaudy.
Mr. Wonka is classy, but above all, personal and homely.

The yacht just feels too....big, boom, loud, in-your-face type of branding that I wouldn't associate with the nice, moderation of a Wonka Candy.

Now, does anyone know how to make our bombs-turned-candy more explosive? The US amry contacted us about them, and said it'd be a good weapon of terror.

We did watch the same movies right?
The Wonka brand was literally everywhere in those universes.
We are going to have to be big, boom, and loud eventually if we want to compete
with the other international major candy makers.

Well, we could keep the big, boom, and loud to our candy. :D :D
I mean, wonka is all about that....
Speaking of which, we could make candy boats, and make one big enough to transport us!:lol::rofl:
 
I still think we should go with a yacht.
It would have more cargo space to take candy materials back with us.
We could also furnish & decorate it to fit the Wonka Candy brand.
If its big enough; we could even turn it into a floating candy store on the sea.

[X] Plan: Sun and Moon
-[X] Sun Drops: An energizing citrus candy that makes you glow a warm yellow.
-[x] Moon Drops: A candy with a calming vanilla flavor, that makes you feel light on your feet as if gravity has lost some of its grasp on you.
-[x] Take a helicopter. 30 Wealth.

I really want to get star drops if we get this

Pssst.
If you're gonna quote the post, quote the bottom as well. :whistle:
After all, it's meant to offset the earlier points.

The bottom part of your post was a joke about improving & selling our explosive candies to the US Army.
They already have more then enough explosives as it is. I didn't see how it was relevant to the parts I quoted.

Taking a yacht to the Bermuda Triangle? Isn't that one of those stories that ends with no survivors? I'd rather use the smaller boat that might avoid Cthulhu or whatever lurks there.

We shouldn't think of the eldritch horrors of the Bermuda Triangle as potential quest enders.
Instead; we should think of the eldritch horrors of the Bermuda Triangle as potential customers.
Which flavor of Wonka candies do you think Lord Cthulhu or any of the other Great Old Ones would enjoy?

Mhm, yes, and it was meant to be a direct counterpart to what I said above about 'subtlety' and 'moderation' in order to show I wasn't serious about my prior point. After all, what's more loud and in your face than a bomb?

Ramble's Candy Actually Floss.
  • Apocrypha
    • I wonder if we could change our marketing for the toothcleaning gum from kids to mothers and/or generally parents instead. Like, getting kids to brush their teeth twice a day is hard. Giving them a piece of gum is easy.
    Of course, we would need to strenuously clarify that they still do need to brush, but keeping some gum around the house would go a long way to keep those pearly whites healthy and shiney.

    Candy Idea: Candy Actually Floss

    A sweet, minty strand of semi-sticky sugary substance which adheres well to stuck food and plaque. Dissolves very slowly in the mouth. After flossing, you can hold it in your mouth to improve your breath if you like. 30% more likely to improve likability when in close proximity to other people! *

    Warning: Choking hazard, only for children aged 10 and up.

  • Apocrypha
    • edboy49's Gold Wool Balls.
  • Apocrypha
    • Since we are heading to the Triangle, how about this candy idea.

    Gold Wool Balls:
    Public Knowledge- Candy that look like balls of yellow wools that feel and taste like cotton candy. Can have either vanilla, chocolate or strawberry in the middle.
    Secret Knowledge- It's not cotton candy but actual wool that is taken from a mysterious fleece that is colored golden that Willy found in his trip to the Bermuda Triangle. The wool is edible and Willy adds vanilla, chocolate or strawberry to give it more flavor and hide it's true nature.
    Willy shears the fleece once a week, which the next day, all of it's completely covered in wool again but Willy makes sure to only do it once a week to not abuse the poor fleece.

    Noted observations- People who eat the balls seemed to get healthier and Willy noticed that any plants near the fleece seemed to grow not only faster but also look healthier.

    (OCC- Yes it's the Golden Fleece from Percy Jackson only it's the living animal instead of a magical artifact.)
