The absolute worst in Y2K hype I've ever seen, I found a bag of candy in the gas station this morning for US $0.69, called Y2Kandy. It's actually quite funny, though.

CRASH YOUR MOUTH WITH COLOR!!!

WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN???

ASSORTED FLAVORS IN MYSTERY COLORS!

FOR ADDITIONAL MEMORY, BUY ANOTHER BAG.

Then this final instruction on the wrapper, "OPEN HERE TO DOWNLOAD FUN."

Yes I tried them (I bought two bags so I could save one, but later on, I'll probably buy the rest), even though they've probably been sitting on the shelf untouched for at least 8 months. They come in orange, purple, yellow and blue (the blue ones taste pretty nasty, though), they're shaped like really old memory chips, and they taste suspiciously like SweetTarts.

I still have one! My wife bought one for me right after I began working in IT in 1999. It's a good novelty to have around the office.
