Top 7 Arrested Development Foods That Should Be Real

Pulp nonfiction!

​In the event that you've just returned from an extended stay at an ashram in Bangalore, eschewing all creature comforts in favor of a daily regimen of meditation, hot yoga and colon cleanses, Gut Check has news for you: Quill.com, an offshoot of the Staples chain of office-supply suppliers, has gone all heavy-meta, introducing a Dunder Mifflin brand of photocopier paper in a reverse-product-placement tie-in* to the sitcom The Office.

The news set Gut Check to thinkin' about another recent sitcom-related development, the announcement that Arrested Development really is coming back for ten new episodes and a full-length movie sometime in 2013.

Talk about your reverse-product-placement goldmines! It took us all of about 30 seconds to come up with a list of AD-related food items that would look awesome on a grocer's shelf. There were dozens to choose from, but we managed to winnow them down to the top seven.

*Yes, Gut Check is well aware that one man's reverse-product-placement tie-in to a hugely popular sitcom is another man's craven jump-the-shark ploy to cash in on an increasingly stale series that wasn't even original in the first place.

​7. Ice cream sandwiches
Have a love affair with your ice cream sandwich...
The Bluths reference their love of ice cream more than a few times throughout the series. George Sr., though, tops them all and would rather stay in jail if only for the ice cream sandwiches. We think George should make his own.

​6. Buster's Juice
This party's gonna be off the hook!
Some of Buster's best moments come when he's able to sneak a few drinks of j-u-i-c-e without his mother's knowledge. Whether it's box wine or corn syrup dyed with food coloring, Buster's unlimited juice would ignite the ADHD in everyone.

​5. Hot Ham Water
It's watery, and yet there's a smack of ham
Has anything ever sounded more disgusting than Lindsay's hot ham water? To even pose the question is to prove that the stuff must be made. Maybe even carbonated.

​4. Cornballs
Soy loco por los cornballs
Which Congressman do we have to call in order to get the Cornballer legalized in the United States? Third-degree burns be damned, we'll happily take our chances on this classic Bluth favorite.
