Week 6 EOC: Fake Products

The fake product I found is Chicken Wing Ice Cream. It was made August 14, 2014. The ad says, "Aren’t you tired of eating foods that are just one thing? Sick of "the man" telling you when it's okay to eat? Don’t you want to break with tradition and start eating dessert all day long? Then you're like me- someone who desperately needs some Perry's Chicken Wing Ice Cream in their lives. Too bad we're stuck dreaming of what it would be like to use Sriracha, or barbecue sauce, to make the ultimate ice cream sundae." http://www.neatorama.com/neatogeek/2014/12/06/9-Fake-Products-We-Wish-Were-Real/ It turns out it was an April Fools joke according to the site. "Many of you may have heard about our Chicken Wing ice cream.  Some will be happy to know that it was our April Fool’s Day prank last year!" Then it says, "We do not produce a Chicken Wing flavored ice cream (sorry for any disappointment!). We were very surprised with the numerous requests that came in for the flavor and the many adventurous appetites out there! Although we may not have Chicken Wing, we do have a variety of unique flavors for you to try! We will be announcing our NEW Fall Flavor at the end of August, so stay tuned!" http://www.perrysicecream.com/chicken-wing-ice-cream/
