Icee decided to test out its new flavor to Philadelphia Zoo visitors: HAIR!
They even threw in a spoon for the non-slurpers.
* Personal aside: We found this while taking our 9-year-old suburban/rural cousin on a baby-sitting-day-at-the-zoo trip. Took a picture, laughed, said “what the crap?” a couple dozen times and kept on moving. No biggie. Typical day in Philadelphia. Fast forward 4 hours later to snack time…when asked if she’d like an Icee, said cousin responds with “I’m afraid it’ll have hair in it.” She’s off Icee for life, and is now highly pro Dippin’ Dots. GENIUS!

John Tarsi added these pithy words on Sep 04 08 at 7:28 pmHair is high in proteins. Please do not underestimate the nutritional value of eating hair. Blogs like this are the reason people frown on the practice. Like the people who knit sweaters from their cat’s dander should look down on me. At least I am fulfilling a nutritional need.
