I find cursed Mario products just amusing. I've seen a handful but I'm sure there's more out there. If you find any, please share a picture. However, no inappropriate products allowed since I want to keep this family friendly.
 
At some target, there was these: Bullet Bills with Blue Raspberry Candies inside. Why blue raspberry? I don't know

I do think this product is weird: Jakks Pacific's "Let's Go, Yoshi!" Figure and the "It's-A Me, Mario!" Figure.
It's not a bad product necessarily, but I feel like both the kids in the commercial and the target age for these toys is younger than the age that they would typically be interested in video games.

These, in my opinion, are the most cursed officially licensed Mario products, and I love them for that reason. You were supposed to color them with crayons and wash them afterwards, but most of the time they're completely blank

^ These come in similar packaging and are sold all over the American web. I also personally spotted them in passing at Jamin (a huge candy retail store chain in the Netherlands), so clearly they're being shipped across the high seas, too. This is a bit eyebrow-raising as they don't look *terribly* official to me. The old "Super Mario" logo is a dead giveaway, and I've yet to see Nintendo's stamp in any online pictures of this product. I don't even know who actually manufactures it.

EDIT: Nevermind, they're official. They were just originally issued in 2012 and they haven't bothered updating the Mario logo since lol.

it's the same with that Super Mario Chess set, i still see it at walmart with identical packaging to what it had when i bought it a decade ago, 2000s Mario logo and all. i'm honestly gonna be a bit sad when that logo vanishes completely, i like that that era is living on in a way through these products that haven't been updated.

Agreed. I think the creepiest out of them is Yoshi. His eyes don't help their cause lol 🤣

I have the case from a candy thing from Nintendo of NYC, the Super Star design. It initially came with similar candies to those in the video, but after finishing those off, it can just be filled with mints or something.
(Also why is it just a video of him eating the Mario candies lol?)
 
On the topic of Mario candies, there were those creepy looking jelly pops. They were around and discontinued before I was born, but through the pictures and videos I've seen of them, I probably wouldn't like the taste of them anyway. I'm honestly glad Nintendo doesn't allow those to be made anymore.
