Soup in your beard?
No more!
One importer of ice cream to the US
http://www.daduicecream.com/aboutus.asp 01 Sep 03 | I can't find anything that says foreign ice cream is illegal to import to the US. [bristolz, Oct 05 2004, last modified Oct 17 2004]

Havent you ever heard the term flavor saver? People have
beards so they can save their food for later. |
|
|
Yeah, I know - I've had one for years now - but man, chocolate syrup (on black cherry ice cream) is sticky. |
|
|
do you stick it on with velcro? |
|
|
No, with chocolate syrup and black cherry ice cream. |
|
|
<thumbwax> If I make it will you wear it? |
|
|
What, soup or ice cream? The soup'd be cold, and ice cream is illegal to import into the US. |
|
|
May as well be, since according to "fair trade" restrictions, each American citizen consumes the equivalent of only one teaspoon of foreign ice cream per year. |

<mr wax> the beard bib, I would be more than happy to
make you one if you would wear it to resterants and
family dinners or even at your local icecream parlor. I
invision somthing like a sergical mask that sits lower
protecting the area below the mouth and the areas above
and to the side leaving only a small hole in wich to insert
food through. Would you like a lovely floral pattern? |

Consumption: 22.5 L per Capita, 2nd behind New Zealand at 26.3 L per Capita.
US Total produced is: 61.3 M hL
and now for the imperialist pig scale:
Total U.S. production of ice cream and related frozen desserts in 2000 amounted to more than 1.6 billion gallons.
Total U.S. exports of frozen desserts reached more than 40 million gallons in 2000
In 2000, 8.6% of the milk produced in the U.S. was used to make in frozen dairy products. Gulherme, I'm skerred. |

If you think that chocolate syrup is a problem, thumb', just wait 'til you try a cream, apple turnover. |
|
|
Can it be fire proof as well? I've burned off more than my share of beard hair while drunk and smoking cigarettes. |

[notme], check [blissmiss]' link. "Flame retardant". |
|
|
Idea is not a full cover/wrap for a beard - more like a tiny lobster bib |
|
|
For the goatee, a G-string? |
|
|
And for the elegant dinner one which is colour coordinated and complete with frilly bits. |
|
|
This is starting to sound like the old Mystery Science Theater "chinderwear" bit. |
|
|
I hate food in my beard, but I find this idea aesthetically vile. I'd rather keep practicing neat eating and proudly display my hirsute face bib. |
|
|
bris, per link - the first anno I made in jest - the others clarify the point about US ice-cream imports. |
