Would you buy this?

For my part, not in a million years. I'm not adverse to junk food, per se, but a spread with zero nutritional value whatsoever- I mean nil- seems unconscionable, especially when marketed at small peeps, as this must be. Ice cream, sure- at least there's cream and egg in with the junk, so there is something wholesome and essential. But this? It gives me shivers up my spine that a disgusting product like this has shelf real estate, let alone the R&D that's gone into producing it, the marketing money, the carbon footprint of manufacturing it, bottling it and then shipping it (made in America). I could weep when I think of harried mums and dads trying to push their children around a supermarket to stock up on the weekly essentials only to be confronted by this junk.
