S'mores Nativity Set: The
Holy Family as marshmallows.

Kathleen and I have a number of S'mores ornaments made by Midwest of Cannon Falls. Most of them are things like a marshmallow man dressed as a doctor or a marshmallow man in a halloween costume. Over the past few years, many different figures have been produced.

Yesterday I saw that the series now includes a nativity set. When I first saw this on Boing Boing and The Bitter Shack of Resentment, I thought that it has to be a hoax. Apparently not. A quick Google search for S'mores nativity set produced many results, including an entry on WhoWouldBuyThat.com that speaks volumes.

What's next, the Presidential S'mores collection, with a figure for each U.S. president down through history?

I guess this shows that any concept, no matter how whimsical, can be taken a bit too far.
