Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

A Mystery

I’ve been keeping a bag of marshmallows in my kitchen in case I get the hankering for toasted marshmallows. I haven’t opened it yet, but yesterday I noticed what looked like a hole in the bag:

See it right there in the center of the picture?

I went in for a closer look. It was indeed a hole! And there was a hole in the marshmallow inside the bag too:

That's odd...

That’s odd…

Who would poke a hole in one of my marshmallows? Then I saw it:

Coming back out.

Coming back out.

Ants are eating one of my marshmallows from the inside out. Ack! I put Terro all over their path to the marshmallows. Many of them stopped for the Terro instead of continuing on to the marshmallow. I’m guessing the rest of the marshmallows in the bag aren’t compromised, but it’s grossing me out a little. I think I’ll get a new bag.

    AAAHHHHHH!!! That right there is the stuff of nightmares! What if you had eaten it, or worse yet – TOASTED it? A firey marshmallow with bugs pouring out of it? That’s the stuff of nightmares right there.

      I am repeating myself because I can’t stopped being grossed out. *jibblie*

    I dunno, Lauren – toasting it might have killed the microbes but allowed the benefit of additional protein, no?

    sorry…did that gross you out more?
