Funyuns still outselling responsibilityuns

So the headlines say

I doubt those reports are accurate

There's surely no way

That anyone with taste buds

Could ever think

That Funyuns are good

Because they really stink

Crispy and greasy

Salty too

Artificial flavors

Weird smelling poo

But even with all that

Funyuns I still love you

Better than Twinkies

Even more than French toast

Funyuns I love you

More than the most

Sugary cereal or salty snack

More than ice cream

Way more than crack

One part onion ring

Two parts of fun

One part strange color

And whatever the heck is a 'yun

humor
