Ok, time for a flavor of the month. Every May we have paid homage to that tasty treat delivery system, the straw. And why not, the straw has been bringing those cold frosty frozen treats from the cup to our taste buds for years and years. In fact, the straw gets involved in many of our flavor of the month ideas and yet gets little appreciation for it. Smoothies, shakes, malts, freezes, icees, sodas, floats. banan splits (well maybe not so much with the nanner split through the straw unless maybe you put it in a blender first but it you must try go right ahead and knock yourself out) Yes the straw needs to be shown some love. So lets do it again! Lets go with the straw for may one more time. But hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhooooooooooooollllllllllllllllllldd dddddddddddd On just one second. We are forgetting someone. If we are going with the delivery systems that bring those taste treats to our mouths, then we must include the spoon (or the spork if you happen to have a spork handy in which case you should feel like you are ready for anything) The spoon is as involved as the straw and sometimes even more so. At the zoo, they dont even have straws, they do the icees with a spoon at the zoo. So I think we are looking at the straw and the spoon (and the spork, and the spraw which is the straw spoon combination you sometimes get with a snow cone and other tasty treats of course) for May and that oughta do it (unless you eat your ice cream or shakes and malts... with a fork then I guess you really have to do it fast but not too fast or you will freeze your brain

) So there you have it. We have come up with the perfect solution that is unless you like yours on a stick so I guess we'll have to throw the stick in there too and some people eat their frosty with a fry so that somehow falls in here as well. SHEESH! this is getting out of hand so lets try it this way. It you can eat your favorite flavor whatever with it, it's in.
