Haven’t posted for a bit, and I figured I’d share this afternoon’s moment of levity at the office with you all. My co-worker & I sometimes walk around the block to Trader Joe’s on Market St. when we want to something quick & “healthy” (note quotes) for lunch and today she came back with a braided rawhide treat (see image) for her leetle pwecious doggie dog. As she was brandishing it around like a sword, I grabbed it and shrieked with laughter as I read the label: “INGREDIENTS: Steer pizzle.” Yes, pizzle is indeed consumer-goods-marketing-speak for dong, johnson, peter, peepee, etc. After googling pizzle, it seems a few people have been enlightened about the doggie treat’s true source. I particularly love this comment:

“Anonymous said…
I also was in Trader Joes and was going to buy the steer pizzle but didnt. I wanted to find out what it was first. After I did my husband said he doesnt want the dogs chewing on dicks.
4:39 PM”

My co-worker & I are still drying our tears from the excessive giggling.
