Obviously Brilliant
This is one of those smack my forehead "duh" ideas that I completely missed.
From their website...
TASTY GOLF TEES
Sanitized and safe for a nibble between putts, Tasty Golf Tees come in mint and cherry flavors. After noticing the habit some golfers have of holding a fresh tee in their mouths, two inventors devised the 3-1/4" white birch tees. The flavor-enhanced tees function just like regular tees once in the ground.
Tasty Golf Tees are made from all natural uncoated wood, then sanitized and flavored for long-lasting taste. Unlike conventional tees which are coated with a toxic finish, Tasty Golf Tees are completely safe to put in your mouth. What's more, is the flavor...mint, cherry, grape, and others.

What's worse is that when I get a chance to golf, I'm one of those guys walking around with a tee between my teeth. My only excuse? I should have been more AWARE.
The obvious sometimes is the most brilliant. Hindsight does make it look so easy to think of. It does make me think of, ok, flavored toothpicks, flavored golf tees...what next?

Don,
Double-duh because I'm a golf addict. Great awareness exercise to look closely at every aspect of our entire life. What can you make better? And, we golfers will buy anything. Thanks for the link to my Awareness article.

Gary:
I was right with you on the toothpick connection. That's ABSOLUTELY where this idea came from.
You asked "what's next?"
...flavored caps for ballpoint pens.
