Crumbs

I couldn't resist. I grabbed some crunchy chocolate chip cookies while I was hunting and gathering groceries the other day. They are in one of those packages that has a little plastic thing inside that keeps them all in little rows and the outer bag has a tab on it that, when you pull it, opens the the whole side of the pack and has some sticky on it so that it's easy to re-seal the pack to keep the crunchy in over the week or so it takes me to eat 'em. I gave that tab a yank and looked in and all the cookies are in their respective little compartments all CRUSHED to bits. Not one whole cookie in the bunch. Few are even bite size. The plastic thing isn't even dented. They must have delivered them to the store via one of those Soyuz re-entry capsules with the defective parachute. It wouldn't be too bad if I had some ice cream to pile them on. But I am not going all the way back over there and through the maze just for ice cream. I'll just pour them in a bowl and eat them with a spoon. It is probably a marketing gimmick to make people buy ice cream every time they buy these cookies just in case the cookies are crushed when they get home and open them up. That is all. As you were.
