Text Box: Home Text Box: How Mold can you go? Text Box: Recently, our Roots and Shoots group held a mold growing competition. We all came together to see our mold we grew and have a ‘gross’ party. They played ‘Fear Factor’ style games and ate some interesting types of ‘foods’...and while no one was made ill by the party...there were a few moments of gagging! The only part I can’t seem to get my kids to understand is the fact that the Shoppers bread didn’t mold...that is not necessarily a GOOD thing! Text Box: Bleu cheese was almost ‘threw’ cheese! Text Box: Baby food breakfast sandwich meal...yummy! Text Box: “Ticks and Blood” Taste test anyone? It was really just ketchup and raisins Text Box: Malena holds a night crawler. We decided HS kids are not ‘grossed out’ by a lot of things other kids may find creepy! Text Box: Baby food meat anyone? Text Box: Dead, frozen squid, slimey yet satisfying! Text Box: But, without a doubt, the prize for the GROSSEST thing went to the chicken feet, which you can make move by pulling the tendons at the chopping off point. All items in this day were used or recycled in some way...but, no one seemed to offer to take the chicken feet—for chicken feet soup! Text Box: However, I found the molted tarantula exoskeleton to be, unquestionably the absolute GROSSEST thing ever. Cade, apparently didn’t agree! Text Box: Home
