Making money off an idea..

Like, I was in the kitchen five minutes ago drastically looking for food, and came to this revelation. Peanut butter mixed with the right proportions of cake decorations (like pink/purple sugar or those little valentine's day hearts), stirring, and microwave rays, you easily and totally have something that could be a starting point for a candy bar or pastery or soda. I was thinking, I know I'm totally on to something, man. Like, I was thinking I could package it and sell it, or like, dip it in chocolate or fill breadsticks with it, or like, have tuna in there somewhere. But how does something like this go from an idea to giving me money? How'd the old dead dude who invented chocolate do it? I wonder if I should write a letter to Hershey's or something and be some kind of famous dude and have a movie made about the discovery of this after I sober up. Or like, I could sell it in Rob's restraunt, after he opens it, but then I'd have to move to North Carolina with him.. or I could like, just sell or license the idea to him, but that would be totally capitalistic and against these anarcho-syndicalist ethics I seem to be ignoring right now. Fuck it. We're living in a capitalistic society, aren't we? We should at least take advantage of it while we can, so that I can like, get paid and afford to get addicted to Heroin until I die of an overdose, because that would be a kickass/euphoric way to die. Like, not a care in the world of how you got there by taking advantage of a totally lame economic system to get rich and die happy. I can type without even looking at the keys right now, or the screen at all, 'cause I'm totally used to it so har. I know it's not impressive but *burp/vomit* I find it impressive right now. So fuck you all.

go to the patent office or something like that first, if you try and tell companies now theyll just take the idea for free

The idea is not that good...

Natural PB has way to much oil to be any good in something that needs to have a decent shelf life. That and PB+cake decorations would just be pretty PB

im pretty sure if u make a commercial product u cant use other commercial products unless u announce it like "made with..." which would prolly require some sort of official affiliation with the company that made it, for example thos valentine heart candies.... of course if u crush it and what not and u cant tell what it originally was then i guess ur good, maybe u should learn how to make the original thing tho...

neways good luck lol
