THE team fighting to save the native red squirrel in the North East has officially endorsed squirrel-flavoured crisps.
As nutty as it sounds, the Save our Squirrels group – based at Northumberland Wildlife Trust – is backing the new Cajun Squirrel crisps, one of six finalists in Walker’s “Do us a Flavour” competition.
Carri Nicholson, SoS project manager, said: “Although the crisps are completely vegetarian, they fit in with the interest in grey squirrel as a delicacy.
Arboreal Machiavellians need love, too.

Drat! You beat me to it, uly. That scene from the Addams family movie is one of my favorites, right along with, "No, Mr. Addams, we do not know where they meet."
