Omnivore - Out-of-shape and delicious
The gingerbread men at Rhodes Bakery
I visited Rhodes Bakery for the first time in 10 years or longer just before Christmas. My friend Chuck O’Boyle, the super-foodie who wrote our “Cheap Eats” column briefly, recently mentioned that he was including some of the bakery’s gingerbread men on the buffet table at a party.
I love gingerbread and stopped to buy a couple a few days ago. Despite their rather pathetic physique, I did indeed find them delicious. Oh, they’re a little sweet, and nobody’s gingerbread cookies are ever zingy enough for me. But these are indeed good.
(The cookie did not come with the broken skull. That was my fault. And, now that I think about it, maybe the form is to suggest the cookie is gender-free.)
