mmm...fudge

to the tune of: As I Lay Me Down by Sophie B. Hawkins

Curiously, the pound and a half of fudge I brought back from Mackinac Island has survived now five days with four guys and a handful of visitors eating it, not to mention 92-degree heat. This seems to defeat the immutable Law of Junk Food:

The more sugar food contains, the faster it disappears.

However, this makes sense if we examine the First Law of The RWFZ Kitchen:

The more work required to eat a food item, the less likely it is to be consumed as a snack.
Corollary: Anything requiring cutting is more work than a bag of tortilla chips.

This may explain why we finally noticed the watermelon that has been sitting in our kitchen for the past month and gone completely untouched over several hot weeks of summer that would, one would think, call for a watermelon.
