Chocolate Wii controllers – no kidding

Eat me, Seymour, eat me! - Image 1Some people have enough resourcefulness (and hunger) to see the culinary potential of everyday items like paste and parking tickets. Others get attached to their possessions so much that they eventually fashion their food after their favorite things. Have you ever seen Bavarian cream filled donuts? They were not fashioned after hand cream dispensers.

If you put all of these sorts of people together in one body, chances are, you will get Balakov, the inventor of chocolate Wii controllers that don’t actually work on a Wii.

One day, this guy saw his Wii controllers’ plastic packaging in a new light. They were not meant to be thoughtlessly discarded after being bodily exploited as disposable receptacles for the real Wii controllers, said he. So he went about and gathered the ingredients for making a culinary Wii masterpiece: a moldable white chocolate Wiimote. After toiling a bit in the kitchen, the chocolate Wii controllers were born.

Wii fans and chocolate lovers alike found the idea refreshingly novel. There were some concerns about the toxins from the plastic receptacles, but hey, it’s chocolate, and it’s Wii: what else could be better? Some even thought of putting on M&M’s for the buttons.

We’re not really encouraging you to do the same thing (we’re not discouraging you, either) but the story makes for a fun read. Who knows? This sort of idea might just lead to something else bigger. Raspberry cream-filled chocolate Wii controllers, anyone?
