No.7 One Dollar.

Not chocolate, is it even a sweet? Rice Paper novelty costing 5 pence.

Tweetz Shop, Broadmead Mall, Bristol, UK.

Contents are probably: Potato starch, vegetable oil, artificial sweetener and various e numbers.

 

I like the serious statement "This note is not legal". So... it's not legal to make, thus you are outing yourself as manufacturers of illegal items?

 

To use this as legal tender would be justifiable. If you accepted it, you deserved it. Names of which US states that would accept this as legal tender, in the comments section please.

In Devon, UK, try passing it off by saying "Britain has joined the EU and this is the official currency". This would cause shop owners a paroxysm of rage and despair, with you burnt as a witch. The money would be accepted as real, but subject of moaning about the standard of new foreign notes to the 'good old pound note'. Also: "used to be better before decimalisation/ trading in pebbles and sticks"... "In my day you could buy a pipe full of tobacco, a dozen potatoes, three orphans and still have change!"

 

George looks like he's been locked in a small glass cabinet with a fart.

Probably same the expression when you eat this note.
