As I’m writing this, it’s the day of my 26^th birthday. That means most of the day I’ve eaten tasty,
bad for me food. It’s what we do on our
birthdays, probably so we won’t live to see quite so many of them in the future
thanks to an overdose of sugar, fat, alcohol, and barbecue sauce (at least in
my case). But just because my day of
celebration is about to come to an end doesn’t mean I’m quite ready for the
party to stop.

In fact, I want to spread the party to you, my friends in
the techie brotherhood. That’s why I’m
glad I found something as educational as it is delicious, thanks to Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories. Introducing Circuit Snacks!

A snack that’s both delicious
and educational, Circuit Snacks are a great way to learn your way around basic
electronics without all that pesky soldering. Plus, if you screw up, you get to
eat your mistakes. I suppose you could
eat your mistakes if you’re wiring your own circuit board, but eating all that
silicon and wire can’t possibly be good for your digestive system.

Unless, of course, you’re a
Cylon (Jack’O’Lantern).

Feel free to try this at home, budding engineers. If you get results good enough to show them
off, comment here and let me know what delicious stuff you used to make your
edible circuitry. If you somehow manage
to build a working robot using only foodstuffs, then… yeah, definitely get in
touch of me, because you are the baddest engineer on the planet.
