Excuse me, dahrlings, but...

I ❤ The Big Acidophilus!

Well, Pumpkins, it’s happened. The Big Apple has legislated a nibble bill declaring yogurt the official snack of New York state.

A senator who helped pass the dairy declaration of ascendance said: “Today’s vote to designate yogurt as the state snack is an example of democracy in action.” Hear! Hear! And people think government types don’t spend their time wisely.

Details on the role of an official bacteria bill are running thin. Is it enforceable? And, the most pressing question that pops to mind - why? Rumours are swirling of tubs of yogurt being legislated at cocktails. Bars? “Hey, Fred, hold the pretzels and toss me a fist full o’ that nice probiotic!” Nacho flavoured Greek style at tailgate parties.

I imagine BrandUSA marketing dollars will be all over this lacto-bacillus puppy. “The Yogurt Snack Capital Of The World!” Porter better top up capacity.


In other tourism news, I read this morning that instead of an entrance fee, a Barcelona comedy club is now charging per laugh. €0.30 for a full on guffaw. Cracking a smirk or smile will ding you €0.20. I hope New York doesn't get wind of this innovation.


Ok, reader, I saw your mouth move into an upward shape – hand over the Euros buddy. Here’s my paypal account: Ivanna Wanna

Columnist

Part legend, part myth, all woman: Ivanna Gabbalot is OJ’s gossip columnist and considers herself the industry’s conscience. Equally annoying to Open Jaw management and inflated egos in C-suites everywhere, Ivanna works infrequently, preferring to snipe from the sidelines.
