Topic: Why don't they make a floor wax which is actually also a dessert topping?

Meta !Sober//iZs started this discussion 5 years ago #100,558

"It's a floor wax AND a dessert topping" has been a meme since Saturday Night Live joked about it in 1976 (https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/shimmer-floor-wax/n8625)

But since food-grade shellac is a thing, I think they could actually make this. Just take food-grade shellac and make it vanilla or chocolate flavored. What do you think, Minichan? ?

Shellac is usually just an ingredient, not the dessert itself.

Isn't natural shellac very expensive?

did you know that it takes up to 300 000 bugs to make a kg of shellac?
