An Ort in the Road

I was out walking my dogs today on the city’s sidewalks.  I received the shock of my life when we passed by some crumbled Sun Chips (by Frito-lay).  They were laying about like yesterdays snack, which it was.  Neither dog  not only did not try to scarf them up, but didn’t even give them a passing sniff.  Whoa, what’s that about?

We’re talking dogs that will eat anything.  I mean anything.   The piece de resistance is cat poop or retch.  The older (aged) the better.  These dogs wouldn’t even sniff the chips.  What the heck are they made of, that my dogs just ignored.  What the heck am I eating when I ingest the Sun chips?  Are chips even made with biologic matter?

Frito-lays advertise that the Sun Chips are bagged in a compostable wrapper.  Here’s an experiment to try.  Buy a bag and open them.  Pour into a pile in the worm bin and then place the wrapper next to them in the bin.  Which will decompose first? Do you really want to know?  Maybe not.
