A can or bottle of an edible liquid that, when applied to skin, dries to a peelable scab-like consistency.

Mainstream? No, but the niche this hits it would hit HARD.

    Liquid bandage? It’s already a thing, and a good one. Great for cuts on your hands or any hard to bandage spots.

    Its generally mixed with antiseptic like alcohol, so it burns like a fuck while it sets but also cleans the wound.

    The eating part is going to be tricky though.

      That was my initial reaction too, but a re-read to see if liquid bandage fit the bill led me to think that an injury isn’t the point, and the point is having a scab present to pick and eat.

      Which is why we need something different. Maybe a gum base with an easily evaporated solvent?

    I oppose this idea
