Partay in Team Buil-ding Class (to the tune of the Miley Cyrus hit)

Tonight in in Team Building, we had a class party. There are a few questions you probably need answered after reading only one sentence of this blog entry. For starters, no, I am not in middle school, it was a college-level course that the party took place in. Also no, Team Building is not a legitimate college-level course to begin with, so in essence we can say that it actually was more of a 7th grade atmosphere than a 17th grade one (that's what grade I am now for all keeping count...at least I think) And yes, to answer your last question, it was a pretty ridiculous experience after all was said and done. Although, I should mention, it got me thinking (mostly about food-related things)...

Now that I've answered a few of your questions, maybe you can do me a solid and tend to a few inquiries of my own:

One group in my class brought in a box of soft pretzels. They were approximately 5-7 hours old. I took 2 bites, and decided it wasn't worth the time of day. Similarly, someone brought in half-day old D&D munchkins to my work yesterday for a kids birthday. I had one and turned down offers for a plethora more. (the teacher of my class is heavy-set, and is always shoveling food down the staff's throats. We're always being tempted by copious amounts of diabetic coma-inducing grub) So which is the worse food to eat when it's getting stale?

The same group that brought pretzels also brought tastykakes. I took home some leftover butterscotch krimpets and put down the standard Noah's Ark special, 2 by 2. Speaking of 2's, this question is a 2-parter. Firstly, what, if anything, gets consumed quicker than a tastykake snack? Secondly, is the butterscotch krimpet the greatest tastykake ever made? I say unequivocally yes personally.

Another group planned a team building activity for the party that involved marshmallows. Is there ever a time that marshmallows are really needed if you aren't around a campfire? People have tried to sell me on marshmallow fluff over the years, and I have never bought it. You could make the case for marshmallows in your hot chocolate, but even then is it absolutely necessary? Do mallows bring more to life than I'm giving them credit for?
