Washington, D.C. (Strutts News Services) – About 62 lifelong members of the CCTF (Clan of the Cheeto Task Force) arrived in Washington D.C. on Thursday to demonstrate for the right to eat puffed corn-based products known to have very little nutritional value, but that taste so good you could eat a bag in an hour.
In lieu of conspicuous consumption, the CCTF protesters dressed as actual human-sized cheetos, and in lifelike realism, withered row-by-row in the steady rain just to make their point.
When asked about that point, organizer Robert “Bobby” Bieber stated that the production of the cheese flavored junk food is under attack by the pro-ethanol lobby.
“They want to take our corn away! They want to take our trans-fats away! They want to take our fluorescent orange powdery stuff that tastes kinda like cheese away! Are you blind, man?!”
As the rain fell steadily, and the “cheetos” eroded in a natural fashion, the protest disbanded by 4PM due to a severe outbreak of the munchies.
We said we would do something with the entries, and since a prize was promised, it just wouldn’t be right to delete the post entirely. After several minutes of careful analysis and consideration, we decided to select the best of the top four captions as randomly as possible. So here are the candidates, in alphabotanical odor:
