The Jar Jar Binks Lollipop That May or May Not Let You Make Out With Him

The Phantom Menace was released to generally-disappointed audiences; except for me.  As I look back on the film’s 15th anniversary, I’m reminded of the onslaught of merchandising.  In this case, it was candy.

From the above image of the Jar Jar lollipop, it is difficult to determine where the lollipop is.  After all, it appears to just be a sculpted head on a stick.  Pressing the back of the device reveals the shocking truth:

No.  Please, no.

That’s right, kids — the lollopop is Jar Jar’s tongue, allowing you to re-enact the part of the film where someone shoved Jar Jar’s tongue down their mouth and sucked on it.  Who could forget that scene?  That’s the reason why people generally hate Episode 1, right?
