I was just eating a GIANT Gobstopper, so i decided to look it up on wikipedia and lookie what i find:

- In Apartheid-era South Africa, certain gobstoppers with liquorice coatings were known as "niggerballs". This term is no longer in popular public use, as the term nigger is viewed as racist.

- A few reports have emerged of jawbreakers exploding after being heated. In 2003, a nine year old girl in Starke, Florida, Taquandra Diggs, suffered severe burns when a jawbreaker, which had apparently been left in direct sunlight, exploded as she went to put it in her mouth.

LMFAO!!! who would've thought?! they tested that on Mythbusters too apparently by puttin it in the microwave and the hosts got minor burns lol! sux to be them!!!
