How I Celebrated

So we got the Sara Lee versions of cupcakes and put some cherry pie filling with whipped cream on top. This way you don't have to make a whole cake with nasty cherry stuff!

Diet Helpers 

• Sugar Free

  Your food on a stick does not have to have sugar (I mean, you should have got your cake pop fix already, right?) Try a recipe like this that uses sugar substitutes for your black forest cake 

• Gluten Free

  Choose your food on a stick wisely. Here is a recipe for gluten free black forest cake.

• Vegetarian

  Vegetable kebabs are great. Black forest cake is also in the clear

History

 Reading the history of these foods, I just think, this is why we all just need to get along. How else can we partake in the deliciousness of another culture? Can you imagine never having a kebab? WHAT? It is always so appealing to the eye.

Merchandise

Hey, play pick up sticks all you want, but don't use that over your fire. Melted plastic smells horrible and you shouldn't be eating that stuff. Watch Flight of the Concords "Prettiest girl in the room". Kebabs all around.
