Maggie Moo versus the Skinny Cow
When I went to the mall the other day to see the very funny movie "40 Year Old Virgin," I ran into none other than Miss Maggie Moo the cow herself, right outside Maggie Moo's Ice Cream and Treatery. She looked pretty much as she does in this picture, but in a mall. Cute... Don't you think?Wow, I thought, that's a skinny cow... not THE Skinny Cow, but a skinny cow. So, there must be some lo-fat, non-fat, or no sugar added options, right? Wrong... To my surprise, there was none of that. Only fatty fat options.
Like with Cold Stone Creamery, Maggie Moo's customers can choose from mix-ins like cookie dough or Oreos which the servers then fold into the ice cream. But, at least Cold Stone has a flavor called "Sinless Sweet Cream"(which is only 2 points on Weight Watchers in the "Like it" size). Come on, Maggie Moos... Get with the picture. It's a "dieters world" out there. And right here, for that matter.
And for what it's worth, Miss Skinny Cow would totally whip Maggie Moo's tail in an Ice Cream wrestling match between the two. Oooh, that actually sounds pretty fun, and delicious, and like a good workout! I'm game... As long as it's "Sinless."
