"Warning: These candys are chewy."
A woman in Michigan is suing Mars, Inc. (Starburst's maker) saying that chewing a starburst caused "temporal mandibular joint dysfunction." Apparently she took about three bites and her jaw locked up...now she has trouble chewing, talking, and sleeping.
Suprisingly, she's only suing for $25,000. She wants to make sure no one else suffers the same injury she did.
My question is how chewy is "chewy?" Additionally, would she have not eaten the candy if it said "Warning: this candy is chewy."

The X Factor
Last night, as I was falling asleep, I happened to flip on MTV just as the new show "The X Factor" started. This masterpiece of programming fits right in with the ridiculous, yet strangely addictive, type of shows on MTV.
The premise is an ex-couple spends the weekend together at a swanky resort while their current significant others spy on them. Coincidentally, the exes often still have feelings for each other. Unaware that their current lovers are watching and listening to them, they generally act on these feelings. The show ends with the exes choosing who they want to be with - their ex or their current. Of course, even if they choose their current, their current may not want to be with them based on what they saw over the weekend.
At first I was shocked that they would create such a show, but it drew me in....I wanted to see how everything turned out.
