Hmmmm . . . not Mmmmm

On a less serious note - the local grocery store is selling cakes made to look like a hamburger and french fries. Complete with 'ketchup' over the 'fries' and the 'hamburger' fixings spewing outside of the 'bun'. This struck me as really . . . gross. I mean, sure, it is July 4th and people eat lots of burgers and hot dogs and cake. But must we go so far? Can't we just let a cake be a cake and a hamburger a hamburger?
It just struck a nerve! Is this a little odd? Off? Strange? Am I alone in this???

I'm with you, Nicole. Gross. I may not be wise to look at the cake selection around Halloween. Someone might think that people would enjoy eating a sugary severed limb.

Nope... not alone in that.

And I love the title of the post! There are billboards near Albuquerque, NM for a gas station that have big pictures of hamburgers and the saying, "Ummmmm Grillburgers!"

"Ummmm??" That's not what they mean.
