What is wrong with Elmer's glue? Clearly a back to school staple, but what are they doing the other 11 months of the year when Walmart shoppers aren't stocking up on the many available sizes of "glue-all."
Berwind corporation recently bought out Elmer's Products Inc. (which was originally marketed by Borden Milk Products, the milk brand with Elsie the Cow as a mascot). And Berwind, it's time to start thinking edible glue.
I'm thinking your standard "Laffy Taffy" flavors (Banana, Sour Apple, Strawberry-Kiwi, etc.). You figure every kid is going to try eating the paste once in their life, make it taste good, and just maybe they'll come back for more glue mid-October to try a new flavor, or because they ate all their Cherry-Vanilla Glue in art and crafts?
Here's a fun video I found when I saw searching to see if edible glue already exist.

Thanks YouTube. That's 2 minutes of my life that I'll never get back.
If kids are going to eat it anyway, might as well come out with flavoured glue!
Scary. Very scary. LOL
RC, Very funny video made, I think, to warn parents about their kids eating paste...or maybe not. :)
I'm all for flavored Elmer's, what the heck!
I think folks about my age (29) are about the last ones to have had the priveledge of eating that old-school, minty tasting paste. The real sticky stuff. Brings back so many memories.
Oh, Ryan...you have too much time on your hands.
Pass the coconut flavored glue, please!
I like your idea!!
