“I like eating Nerds because I’m secretly hungry for aquarium gravel and this takes the edge off”

Nerds is an American candy that is colorful, but perhaps not healthy.
 
“I like eating Nerds because I’m secretly hungry for aquarium gravel and this takes the edge off” was posted on Twitter by CynicalTherapist on April 25, 2020. The jocular saying has been shown on several images.
 
   
Wikipedia: Nerds (candy)
Nerds are an American candy launched in 1983 by the Sunmark Corporation under the brand name Willy Wonka Candy Company. Nerds are now made by the Ferrara Candy Company, a subsidiary of Ferrero Group. With their anthropomorphic covers, Nerds usually contain two flavors per box, and each flavor has a separate compartment and opening.

Nerds are fun to eat when you’re needing to take the edge off of your aquarium gravel craving

One of my favorite things to eat is Nerds. It’s not because they taste good, but because I am secretly hungry for aquarium gravel and the Nerds help take the edge off. 😊
