Do Not! I Repeat…Do Not Eat This Candy! I Did and My Head Almost Exploded! (VIDEO)

I had a bit of a health scare at the end of last year.  My head blew up.  Seriously.

I was announcing the arrival of Santa Claus at the Santa parade in downtown Oneonta and I felt my head swelling up.  By the time I got home I looked like Mr. Pumpkinhead.  I went to the emergency room.

The doctors said I had a plugged up salivary gland. Not serious, but irritating for sure.  They told me to "eat some sour foods like pickles" and that would get "my juices going" and the blockage would end.

They were right.  After a diet of sour foods for a week my salivary gland (and my head) returned to normal.  I swore I never would eat a sour item again after that week.

"Dan the Man" came in this morning and asked me to try a sour candy LIVE on film just for fun.  I had second thoughts but said why not, it has been a while.  I popped a "Warheads Sour Apple Candy" in my mouth.

KA-BOOM!  For my reaction live on the air take a look at this video.....
