Ewwwwww!!!

Every year at Halloween people find it "cute" to do things like put your fingers in spaghetti and tell you it's brains, or make those cookies that look like dismembered body parts. Every party has cupcakes with spider webs on them and some of the more daring people eat confections shaped like eyeballs - it's just a parade of the frightful and ghastly all month long, and while usually I don't mind so much, this year I'm a pregnant lady with an overachieving gag reflex and I strongly prefer food sans body parts.

You'd think commercially prepared products would prove an exception to the revolting recipes, but check out this little "treat" Justin picked up in a vending machine somewhere on campus yesterday:

It may look harmless, but it only takes a moment looking at the next picture to realize the trick sweet little old granny B played on us. Do you think the Nutrition Facts include protein for that one additional LONG DARK HAIR packaged inside the wrapper with the cookie??? Click on the picture for a really good view. It's gross to think about, and a little sad to realize it would probably up the values if it did. Lucky there's a number on the back to call, and that it's in Orem - now if I could only get them to pick up... I have a few tricks of my own in mind. :-)

Seriously, though, eww!!!
