Petri Desert

Made by a Cub Scout and his father that teaches a microbiology class, they were participating in a fund raiser. Heck, I’d buy this!

They made these edible and delicious deserts in left over (never used) petri dishes to resemble some cultures you’d likely find in the real world. Ingredients used include lemon pie filling, tapioca, jello.

I AM a Microbiologist and even if I ‘know’ these are edible I’d never could get this in my mouth…. It be like a surgeon trying to eat a tumour shaped cake!

:)

Ah yes, in that case I’d have to agree that it’d be over the top.

Something to say?
