Animal Shaped Food.

After school today, I ate some Goldfish. Not real goldfish, that's just twisted. The cracker kind. You know what ones I'm talking about.. They have tons of different kinds. Pretzel, parmesan, pizza,  and lots of other kinds that start with the letter P. (Actually, that's a lie, not all of them start with P.) But it got me thinking about how many different foods are shaped like an animal. Like gummy worms.. Delicious, but what if someone gave you a bag of "Gummy Worms" and inside was actual worms? Or what if we just at real worms in general. That's twisted too. Worms are for rainy days, not eating. Then there are animal crackers.. First off, they aren't really crackers. They're cookies. Second, they look NOTHING like the animal they are trying to represent. But maybe the inventor of animal "crackers" wanted to create a fun, delicious snack that could also help kids imaginations run wild. "Hey, mom, what kind of animal is this?" "I think it's a giraffe, or maybe a pig? I don't know.." See how hard that is? Maybe they could start labeling the animal cookie-crackers with what they are. Then I could start sleeping again. There's also Swedish fish. They fall under the same category as Goldfish. (In case you don't know why, it's because they're both fish shaped.) They are actually detailed fish. It worries me that they look a little too real. They're also labelled by their race. Every single fish has the word "Swedish" imprinted on it. I though racism was unconstitutional or something? Finally we have Sour Patch Kids... No, wait. They're not animals, they're children. That's the most twisted out of all of the following snack foods I have previously listed. Imagine eating a child. A sour child. Are kids sour? I've never tasted one.. Anyway.. I had these thoughts about animal/child shaped foods. Even though I love all of them, (except animal cookie-crackers, those things give me the willies) I don't really pay attention to their race, age, gender, or sexual orientation. I pay attention to what really matters. The stuff that's on the inside. It's too bad Goldfish are hollow, I think I'd like them more if they were solid. But if were judging food by it's insides, try a Twinkie. That fluffy, white cream is delicious.
