Marshmallow Peeps: This critter’s bright colors and delicious flesh makes it the perfect holiday treat for a sticky five year old to get even stickier. Its yellow sugar coating gives a sense of uniform with its compatriots which is accompanied by its vacant stare. There is no individuality to be found in the soul of this being despite its life like appearance. Its many brothers and sisters look almost exactly identical in size, shape and stature, making it indistinguishable from the rest of its pack. Clearly these creatures are being bred for a hostile takeover of some sort, where the loss of one life is nothing and can be replaced by another.
A baby chicken: Like its counterpart, a live baby chick’s coat is highlighter yellow bright, making it an easy target for predators. It’s capability to grow when it is introduced to feed and water is truly a miracle to wonder at. Its flesh is craved but because it has so little of it at this point in its life time is allowed for growth before harvesting. Its tiny peeps and twitchy movement suggest some sort of individuality amongst the different beings. Their eyes are somewhat intelligent and each of its brothers and sisters seem to have minds that are completely their own, even if there isn’t much going on. These free spirits have no issue with the world and appear to be content to live out their short lives growing and being utterly adorable.
