Holiday Picture Puzzler

MysteryproductWhat the heck is this? It’s a new product I am in the process of inventing. I admit it is a rough start. Marketing is everything, though, and I’m confident this is the perfect "niche" product.
If you figure out what it is, maybe you can suggest a snappy name.

I’ll give a small hint – it’s pretty tasty, which remains a problem.

  1. While it looks like a beef brownie, since you said that being tasty is a problem, then it must be some sort of diet food…..or maybe pet food?

  2. It looks like a meatcube rather than a meatball. But, why would being tasty be a problem? Either because it’s not supposed to be eaten, or because it is supposed to be eaten but not enjoyed. Okay, I don’t get it.

  3. Although, if it’s truly a “holiday picture,” perhaps it’s reindeer-burger, direct from Lappland.
    Maybe a giant Rudolph McNugget?

  4. It kind of looks like persimmon pudding. But all of the comments and your low carb life style would indicate a meat product.
    How about Meak? for meat cake, for the meek shall inherit the earth.

  5. Some sort of strawberry-flavored white chocolate fudge (or a strawberry brownie)? If so, the slogan for selling it should be: It’s not raw meat!™

  6. Tim, please, PLEASE tell me you’re not going into modern art now! 😉
    As for a name . . . I’d first have to know what sort of meat it is. If it’s venison, it could be called “Buck Puck”. If it’s beef, it might be the “Beef in a Box”. If it’s lamb, it could be the “Lammy Loaf”. If veal, the “Square Veal Meal”. If crocodile, the “Cube o’ Croc”.
    But these assume the meat is to be eaten. If there’s some other use intended, it could throw my comedy way off!

  7. Ground Turducken?
    If crocodile, the “Cube o’ Croc”
    If its python and crocodile, its a patty of pythodile.

  8. It may just be my screen, but I’m detecting a greenish layer just under the top of the object, which overall is kind of brownish-red.
    Red and green are the traditional Christmas colors, and Tim J says that this is a *Holiday* picture puzzler, so I’m guessing that the colors have something to do with Christmas.
    Since green in connection with Christmas often has to do with holly (“Deck the halls with boughs of holly”), I’m guessing that Tim has ground up holly and put it into a meatcake or brownie of some kind.
    Unfortunately, holly is poisonous to humans, so Tim J’s new cake-thing may be very Christmassy but also poisonous.
    This could be why he says that the fact it is tasty is a problem–people will want to eat it and then get sick or die.
    I suggest he calles it a “Holiday Deathcake.” That’s a nice, snappy name.

  9. Ooo! I had another thought: Green at Christmas is also associated with mistletoe, which is also poisonous. Maybe Tim used mistletoe instead of or in addition to holly.

  10. Is it supposed to be fruit cake for dogs? That would explain the tasty problem – dog food is supposed to taste bad to us. It would also fill a niche, since lots of dog owners like to buy their pets treats at Christmas. Am I on the right track?

  11. “Rice crispy meatloaf squares?”
    I’ve made many a rice crispy treat & am well-acquainted with the process. The introduction of meat into that process gives my very visual brain a lot to, um, chew on. Er . . . pardon me, I think I shall be sick . . .
