That was what my wife asked about a nice gift that was also comprised of an unfamiliar substance in a circular tin container that had arrived at the house recently. Our kid still described the contents’ appearance as “Silly Putty with nuts in it.”
Tasted better than that. Pretty good, actually.

Did you ask the sender what the “food” is called?
I’ve eaten Twinkies, and White Castle Sliders, and plenty of other non-food items; sometimes, they’re pretty tasty.
