December 2, 2006: Snack Beach



The official cap says it all:
Quote:
A cargo container that apparently fell from a ship washed up on the Outer Banks of North Carolina today and spilled thousands of bags of Doritos brand tortilla chips on the beach. Scavengers collected the chips, which were apparently still fresh due to their airtight packaging. It was unknown which ship had lost the cargo or to what port it was bound.

Hubby, a former maritime lawyer, says, "it's a Chinese ship, isn't it. Gotta be."

I can hear Gordon Lightfoot singing "The Wreck Of the Frito Bandito" now.
