Candles are meant to be a perfect way to relax and unwind by creating a soothing atmosphere, but this collection of strongly scented candles might have you more grossed out than calm.
Some of the selections here aren't all that bad and could potentially appeal to a niche market, like the Yankee Man Candles or the Barber Tompkins Candle. However, there are a number of strange wax creations that make it hard to believe anyone would ever light one like the Bacon Candle or White Castle-Scented Candle. Perhaps there are a very select few who would actually be interested in the obscure scents and the other purchases come from people who are just plain curious as to what a fast food chain candle might actually smell like.
