If you’ve ever looked at a candy cane and thought, “This would be perfect if only it tasted like fluorescent orange powdered cheese,” then congratulations — your moment has arrived. These Mac & Cheese Candy Canes are the unholy combination of two great American traditions: comfort food and confusion.

They look exactly like normal candy canes, so you can secretly hand them out and watch people question every major life choice that led to this moment. The flavor? It’s… cheesy. Like, “I can’t believe someone actually made this” cheesy. Perfect for stocking stuffers, office pranks, or convincing your family that you shouldn’t be in charge of bringing dessert anymore.

Give them to someone you love. Or hate. Honestly, it works either way.
