Periodic Can I Lick It: The Sweater That Tastes Like Science
This design riffs on the eccentric tradition of scientists tasting elementsâyes, that happened. Dmitri Mendeleev, father of the periodic table, once described bromineâs flavor as âburning.â The sweaterâs chart playfully ranks elements by lick-worthiness, echoing real chemical curiosity.

Marie Curieâs radium experiments, though groundbreaking, tragically involved exposure and ingestion. Her legacy reminds us that scientific progress often comes with risk. This sweater nods to that daring spirit, wrapped in seasonal satire and bold color-coded warnings.
From classroom pranks to lab legends, the question âCan I lick it?â has sparked both laughter and caution. Wearing this is a wink to every curious soul whoâs ever asked the forbidden questionâand maybe tried it once.
