I adore The Laughing Cow cheese wedges and Babybel cheeses, so when I saw The Laughing Cow Gourmet Cheese Bites on sale at my local Kroger I picked up a couple of packages. These are basically just tiny individually-wrapped "bites" of TLC wedges. Each pack contains 25 bites; 5 bites per serving. They're great when you just want a little taste of yum. But it wasn't until this evening that I realized the wrappers are lined with little snippets of trivia - so clever.
Here are the bits of knowledge I opened up with my cheese tonight (as well as the two wrappers I plucked from the trash from last night's cheese snack):
♥ You will never see a right-handed polar bear; they are all lefties.
♥ New York City's Empire State Building has 400 windows.
♥ Beer making requires 1/10 of the 7 million tons of rice grown in the U.S. each year.
♥ It takes just 1 ostrich egg to make 11.5 omelets.
♥ The only mammal that can fly is the bat.
♥ The penny is the only U.S. coin bearing a right-facing profile.
♥ New Zealand women were the first in the world to be allowed to vote.
Did anyone already know any or all of these little facts?
