Remember that by law you are required to start with the ears.

There was a great B. Kliban cartoon that had some fellow seated amid a decapitated horde of chocolate rabbits that something to the effect of “Norm lived in Vermont, where he ate only the heads of chocolate rabbits.”
I read that 25 years ago and I’ve never looked at chocolate bunnies the same since.
I love the word “lagomorph.” I love the fact that a rabbit is classified as a rabbit because it looks like a rabbit.
Shhhhhhhh….
I’m eating wabbits.
Chocolate bunny’s love to give little girls smiles….
Someone should take that pic and animate the little bunny’s eyes…
I’m pretty sure that law varies state by state, John.
My, what big ears you have, little bunny.
I always though you bit the eyes out and shouted, “Stop staring at me!!!”
When the bunnies are Peeps, then you’re required by law to heat at least one in the microwave until it swells up to 5x its size. :)
Ears first? You are scum. How could you torture those bunnies that way? I have always subscribed to the moral code that animal crackers should always be eaten head first so they don’t suffer. I’m sure that there is some applicable corollary with regards to eating chocolate bunnies.
Thanks for listening (to the voices in my head),

I love the effect on that photo, like a b/w that’s been hand coloured. :)
I got a 9 lb bar of Toblerone from Switzerland for Easter
Several years back, some friends of mine got a limited edition (rats) “Rocky Flats Bunny.” Rocky Flats is a former nuclear facility to the west of Denver. The bunny had a coating of edible, shimmery electric blue… and it had three ears. Two together and one flopped over.
I really, really wish they’d chosen to make that bunny more than one year.
I am brand new here, but if that is Athena I understand why a trip to the dentist was in order.
