This is a little blob of orange candy. It's the same color as one of those "sports drinks" that are really just sugar water with a dash of salt added to 'em.

You toss the taffy, and the salt water soaks into it. An orange ruffian swims up, eats it in a single bite, and begins to loiter near your opponent. There goes the neighborhood.
If you've already summoned a taffy fish this fight:
You've already fed a fish some taffy this fight. And you know what they say: "Feed a fish a taffy, he'll be your friend for a fight. Feed a different fish a taffy during the same fight, you can't do that."
Otherwise:
You toss the taffy into the air, but nothing happens. You remember people talking about how great salt-water taffy is -- maybe if you tried using this underwater...
Notes
Every round of combat with the ruffian summoned, you'll see the message:
"The orange ruffian roughs up your foe, dealing 150-250 damage."
