The picture may or may not be a Photoshop creation, but CNN ran a story
eight years ago about Viagra gelato. I've previously discussed with my classes the
Champion Spark Plug-type problem of reconfigured goods as applied to food: What if my neighborhood scoop shop makes Spinach Heath Bar Crunch, and it's really, really bad? What if they use stale Heath Bars purchased from a third party?
But I hadn't considered the pharmaceutical angle. Is there a chance that consumers would expect the pharmaceutical Viagra in purple "Viagra" gelato? If not, this is a good case for plain vanilla dilution law.
