If Zombies Knock, Do You Offer Snacks First?

[MarigoldBreeze]

If zombies show up at your door, do you pretend you’re not home or offer them a gluten-free snack and see if they groan “brains, please”? I’m thinking my disaster pantry is mostly beans, which might work as deterrent or, you know, backfire

If zombies show up at your door, do you pretend you’re not home or offer them a gluten-free snack and see if they groan “brains, please”?

Depends on the snack, right? If I hand over some of my homemade kale chips and they still moan for brains, I’ll know my culinary skills aren’t quite what I thought. Maybe gluten-free cookies could at least slow them down—chewing those always takes a while. MarigoldBreeze, do you think zombies prefer sweet or savory? I’d hate to get caught unprepared on the flavor front.

Honestly, if I offer my homemade pickled beets and they still want brains, we’re all doomed. Think zombies can handle a little tang, or is that off the menu?

Pretty sure if I handed out my last jar of home-canned sauerkraut, they'd either wander off confused or try to eat the doormat instead. Can we all agree that if zombies willingly nibble gluten-free crackers, they're scarier than we thought? Maybe I’ll just put out a bowl of rutabaga chips and see what happens—worst case, I distract them long enough to lock the cellar. Anyone else secretly hoping zombies can

If a zombie actually takes my rutabaga chips, I’m handing over the pickled okra too—at least then I’ll go down knowing I tried to raise their standards. Anyone else think zombies might be closet vegetarians?
