People like turkey, and what’s not to like about candles, but would you ever want a meat scented candle? Well, it doesn’t matter what you think because Yankee Candle already made one as part of their new Thanksgiving Dinner collection. According to the description, the ‘Turkey & Stuffing’ candle has the aroma of butter-basted meat filled with celery, carrots and herbs. I think this reviewer on Jezebel put it best, “Um, it smells horrible! As I expected! It sort of smells like meat, nutmeg, wax, and something else that I can’t place but was certainly weird”. Yeah, think we’ll pass on taking a whiff.

But in case that wasn’t weird enough for you, there’s also ‘Cranberry Sauce’ and ‘Sweet Potato Pie’ candles. Not gonna lie, we kind of want to smell the Sweet Potato one, but it could be just too sweet to handle. Yankee Candle claims that these three smell “so authentic, they’ll even fool Mom”. If this is what my mom tries serving at Thanksgiving this year instead of real food, we’re going to have some major problems. Click the slideshow to see some other unexpected candle scents.

Candles retail for $17.99 and Large Jars are $27.99
