A 2020 Candle – Here’s What Rockford Thinks One Would Smell Like

I've gone through candles like CRAZY this year. I mean hey, if I'm going to be stuck at home, I'm going to be stuck in a good smelling home. Right?

My new candle obsession led me to the thought, what would a 2020 candle would smell like? Obviously not one you'd want to actually light in your home. But even if it's nasty, it's funny to imagine how a 2020 candle would be scented.

We asked on Facebook what 97ZOK listeners think the 2020 candle would smell like and the responses did NOT disappoint.

With all those amazing suggestions, I got a little inspired. I kind of created our very own virtual 2020 candle shop of candles you'd never actually buy, but can totally say, "Yep, that's 2020".

So I present to you, Rockford's 2020 Candle Shop. What will you be buying for a stocking stuffer? (Spoiler alert, these don't actually exist, but would you really want them too?)

I have to give a shoutout to some honorable mentions as well because this comment section was truly a goldmine.

Some of these I had to Google what they were and was instantly like "EW".

• Surstromming - Basically a stinky canned fish
• Limburger - The internet describes it as "known for its strong smell caused by the bacterium Brevibacterium linens" ... nasty
• Cat Pee - No Googling required here, that's a scent that can ruin any day
• "What just came out of my daughter" - I don't want to know more
• A grease trap getting cleaned out - Again, the internet, "the smells from the grease trap are quite distinctive from septic odors as they contain decomposing food particles and grease"
• "It would be that saw dust stuff they use to put on the floor in school when someone threw up. That smell alone would make me want to throw up!!!" - This is self explanatory
• A GIF of a dog dragging it's butt on the carpet ... if you know, you know

Needless to say, 2020 candles are NOT what people will be asking for for Christmas this year.
