The eighth thing at Christmas that has insulted me:
Eight vegan cookies

These will soon be eight healthy landfill components. (Photo credit: veganchicksrock)
Seven cancelled flights

Even the airplane food tastes better. (Photo credit for original: Allen Skyy)
Six sixes sixing
Five drunk fratboys

Cookies also make excellent beer coasters. (Arthur Browne created this image. Art likes monkeys, probably because he claims to be a monkey. You can see more monkeys on his blog, Pouring My Art Out.)
Four weeks of church

And as penance for missing church for the previous 11 months, you will say five Hail Marys and eat six cookies. (Thanks to James O’Neil at Memories of a Time for providing the image. He also did the glasswork.)
Three Santas

There’s a lump of coal in every cookie. (Photo credit: Josh Roulston)
Two tacky gifts

Unfortunately, the cookies are difficult to regift the following year, especially compared to other Christmas monstrosities that also resemble food. (Photo credit for original: Richard Huber)
And the kid who wants a large breed

If you eat the cookies, you are less likely to become tiger food. Tigers don’t like them either. (Photo credit: Steve Harris)

Vegan cookies… the fruit cake of the new millennium…
… but minus the health content of fruit
sadly that is true… even the chewiness doesn’t quite measure up.
Are those things misshapen gingerbread men, stars or snowflakes? Blech. (but very clever post!)
I think they’re snowflakes. Brown is the perfect color for a snowflake, don’t you think?
vegan cookies? yuk
I think I’ll stick to the vegan apples.
😀 Me too, man, me too. 😀
How can you tell if someone is vegan?
Don’t worry, they’ll tell you all about it.
I would have guessed protein deficiency…
That’s what lends the skin that soothing grey color.
