| 2xhelix Only the uppity snobs in Saratoga eat peppermint pigs. If you want real NY holiday candy made for the hoi polloi, you want Turkey Joints! |

Make your own. Find a YouTube video on making your own candy canes and follow the recipe and procedure, but instead of making a shepherd's crook make it into a pig instead. It won't look polished, but it'll be more charming that way. It'll be great fun. But don't lick the spoon unless you enjoy third degree tongue burns. |

| Grand_Moff_Joseph Used to live about 3 miles from the place that makes those pigs. I normally don't like peppermint flavored candies, but those things are darn good. /Clifton Park represent :D |

Also if you make your own you could make the pig any flavor you want. Skip the peppermint oil and embed bits of real bacon, if you're so inclined. |

| Joelogon Hammer? Pfft, this is Murrka. Somebody take out their nine and shoot it. |

| Sybarite Before smashing the pig to bits, it's traditional to say "I must break you." in your best Dolph Lundgren growl. |

Can you put candy into a 3D printer? /Also, I would need a 3D printer. |

Hooray for the hometown making it on Fark! Now can we get a Saratoga Fark party? Perferrably including a day at the races? |

Peppermint Pig? Isn't that what Charles Schultz called it when Peppermint Patty goes rooting around in Marcy's snatch? |

I grew up in Rotterdam and never heard of it until I was in my mid 20s from my now-MIL. Who lives about 3 miles away from my parents. |

They also do something involving hiding a fake pickle in the tree and have the kids look for it. I was never one for playing "hide the pickle" with kids, so I don't get this one either. |

Glad I clicked the link. I was horrified that someone was messing with the flavor of bacon. Crisis averted. |

Oh god, the pickle incident... Christmas is ruined. Forever. |

Also available at Cost Plus World Market online, and in meatspace. |

It's a good tradition. More things should be sold in bags along with a hammer ready for smashing. The market for home-smashable items is probably just beginning to burgeon. |

He really should come out with some sort of 'watermelon candy in a bag with a hammer and with his name and likeness on it' for Xmas kind of a deal. |
