    If you love the Spice Girls (as if I should even question that), then you are happy to be alive.  Everywhere you look, you see Spice.  They're on posters and T-shirts, and you hear their music when you're in any fine record store.  It's impossible to escape them, and as far as I'm concerned, I don't want to!  There are a number of fine Spice products that I thought I should review here, so keep your eye out for this stuff...
 

 
 
Spice Puzzle
I keep getting more Spicy gifts from people!  Cat gave me this one, and boy is it ever cool.  How do the Spice Girls come up with such interesting products?  This thing is called a "Jigsaw Puzzle."  It's a brilliant concept, and I'm sure many toy companies will leach off the Girls' invention once they see it.  The goal is to take the "puzzle pieces" (pictured above, right) and assemble them into the picture on the front of the box.  Sound easy?  Well, it isn't, because the pieces are in a COMPLETELY RANDOM ORDER!!  You have to do your best to make order out of this Spicy pandemonium.
 
 
 
 

Spice Shirt
Do you have any friends that just ROCK?  Well, I do, and that's how I got this great Spice Shirt.  My friend Kel in North Carolina got it for me at Target. Can you believe something as quality as this could be found in a discount store like that?  Well, who cares really, because now it can be yours!  Go out and get one soon before they sell out.  Now that I have posted this about it, they won't last long because everyone visits this site at least 239847298347928374982734 times a day.
 
 
 
 

Spice World: The Movie
If you happened to miss this in the theatres because you were horribly ill, you can now buy it!  If you hurry and get one soon, there will be a Spice World poster included inside.  It has the same picture that is on the cover of the movie, and makes a great addition to any room.  The movie itself was FABULOUS!  They were all really funny, and you couldn't tell at all that this is their first attempt at acting.  Academy awards: here comes Spice!
 
 
 
 
 

Spice Mug
I picked up this beauty in Cologne, Germany.  Boy, North America is really getting short-changed when it comes to Spice Products.  When I went into the German grocery store where I bought this, I found a HUGE display of Spicy products I had previously only dreamed of.  They had Spice-Notepads, fake Spice-Phones, and an array of Spicy shirts.  Anyway, I'm glad I stopped in that store and got this mug.  It said on the package the mug was only available in Germany, so I felt quite lucky.  You'll have to pry this from my cold, dead hand if you want it.
 
 

Spice Ring
This luxurious item has been on my want-list for a while now, so I finally splurged and got myself one.  I realize you can't see it very well in this picture, but it's a gorgeous piece of jewelry.  A faux-silver ring beautifully showcases a small circular picture of your favorite Spice Girl.  I chose Emma this time around.
 
 
 
 
 

Collectible Spice Stickers
Panini has worked their magic once again when they released this "Fab Five" series of collectible Spice Girls stickers.  There is an accompanying book for you to put the stickers in, so you can display them to all your envious friends.  The content of the stickers varies widely from in concert pictures, to behind-the-scenes images.  There is also a series of stickers featuring pictures from the Spice Girls movie.
 
 

Spice Sucker
This is a push-up style lollipop that makes eating candy easy and fun.  There is a cap you can put back on the top if you want to save some for later.  That way you won't get dirt on the candy if you put it in your pocket.  Or, you can simply attach the item to your shirt, since there is a clip on the cap as well.  They come in several flavors, and you can choose the one with your favorite Girl on it.
 
 
 

Spice Dolls
Wow, this item is HOT!  I searched for weeks, but everywhere I went these dolls were sold out.  Even Toys R Us was Spice-less.  Despite the frustration this caused, it was reassuring to see that the nation still has SPICE-FEVER.  Anyway, I happened to see the Ginger Spice and Sporty Spice dolls at Blockbuster video a while back.  To tell you the truth, they were a little disappointing.  They looked NOTHING like the actual Spice Girls.  I found out later that the Sporty Spice doll is actually the hardest one to find.  I don't understand how Sporty could be popular in any way.  She will always be Nasty Spice in my eyes.  Here in the picture you can see them all.  Obviously, the clothing and hair are fairly accurate, but the faces are all wrong, especially Geri's. The only one in this picture that looks remotely close to the real thing is Scary Spice.  I recently had the privilege of finding the Scary Spice doll.  If you would like to see a report on her, all you have to do is Click Here.
 
 

Spice Gum
You should be able to find this gum in any major convenience store.  The gum is actually not that bad, you just have to get rid of it before it loses its flavor.  But it's not rock-hard like most trading-card gum.  It comes with the collectable stickers pictured here.  See the one on the left of Victoria?  I hope you like that one, because if you buy this gum you will see it about FIVE FRIGGIN' THOUSAND TIMES!  My counterpart and I have tried to collect them all, but gave up in the sea of Victoria stickers that was produced.  (Can you imagine anything more embarrassing than going into a store and buying 85 pieces of Spice Gum?  I can't)
 

Spice Photos
Now this is a REALLY cool product.  These are also available in most convenience stores.  It's just a package of 8 "photos" of the Spice Girls.  The package is the first thing pictured on the left, so that's what to look for, kiddos.  Next, we see the Girls posing with some guy.  I assume its a fan or something.  And after that we see Victoria, Emma, and Mel B. hanging out on the couch (probably after a great show).  It's a real testament to the Spice Girls for allowing these pictures of their personal lives to be available for all.  They really care about their fans.
 

Fantasy Ball
Yes,  you are reading that correctly, Fantasy Ball.  What that means in layman's terms is "lollipop".  But it is much more than that.  They come in the hi-tech packaging pictured here, which has the look and feel of something the astronauts might take into space.  I would pay the 39 canadian cents just for the packaging alone, but there's candy and a sticker inside too!  These lollies are like none I have ever seen before.  As you can see in the picture, the lower half is dark (red), and the upper half is clear, exposing the decorated gum inside!  The lollipop is really good, and the gum is delicious.  On the gum, you will either find images of your favorite Spice Girl, or the title of one of their SMASH HIT songs!  Fantasy Ball comes in multiple flavors too.  I have only tried the strawberry, but I have seen orange out there too.  Don't miss this one, people.  Trust me, Fantasy Balls are what life is all about.
 
 

Unauthorized Biography
Unfortunately, there are some people in this world who try to capitalize on the success of others.  The makers of "Girl Power: Unauthorized Biography of the Spice Girls" should hang their heads in shame.  This video had me screaming in agony by the end.   DO NOT rent, buy, or view this product!
First of all, the same music is used for the ENTIRE hour long video, and its not even Spice Girls music.  They play some generic dance music.  Secondly, they show each bit of Spice Girls footage about 50 times, and it never corresponds with what the narrator says.  Finally, NOTHING of any interest is discussed by the narrator.  In one segment, he talks for 5 minutes about the kind of marmalade they would put on their toast.  This video is a disgrace, and I implore you to boycott it, no matter how tempting the Spicy cover may be.
 
 

Spicy Store Displays
I got this beauty from a friend who works at a music store.  It's a giant box used to hold Spice posters.  But now I use it to hold all my videos.  Often, Spicy store displays can serve well as alternative furniture in your home.  It adds that special undefinable something to a room that makes it truly radiate with class and good taste.
