while searching Amazon for a poodle-shaped dish (for reasons too complicated to go into here), I encountered this:
CK Products "I Love You" Break-Up Bar Chocolate Mold
Well, which is it? "I love you" or breakup?

See, you should have been checking out etsy instead. Or maybe just an antique store. But me, I think I love this pink poodle cracker serving dish the best. Although I have no idea what you would want it for?

Thank you for finding these. Google had found the toilet brush and blue bottle, but not the cracker tray. This last might actually serve my purpose.

You'll have to come to my closing night party to see why I want it.

Perhaps it's irony?

No, it's a collision between jargon and slang. Apparently if you're a chocolate maker, a "break-up bar" is a slab of chocolate divided into regular subunits by lines of reduced depth.
