Yo, Dooce. Try this on for size.

You know that whole “cleanse” kick you’ve been on? Recently, while on a road trip, I went through a little cleanse of my own, and thought I’d share. It’s fairly simple, and I think you’ll find, quite effective.

Consume the following within a 10 hour period:

Three (3) Extra Long Slim Jim’s (the 11-year-old boy in me would totally make a crack here, but I’ll refrain.)
Three (3) convenience store mini donuts
Six (6) lemon cookies
Four (4) handfuls dried pineapple (I’m fairly certain just THINKING about this food’s sugar content is enough to jump start any latent diabetic tendencies that might be lurking deep in my pancreas.)
Four (4) handfuls banana chips
One (1) handful dried blueberries
God knows how many pretzels
One (1) string cheese stick
Two (2) cans of Diet Pepsi
One (1) large fountain drink (more Diet Pepsi)

Wait 12 hours for full results. My gut tells me the Slim Jims ALONE might just do it.

Magical. I feel like a new woman.

Let me know what you think. I’m off to run through that field of wildflowers over yonder.

  6. Whenever I need a cleanse, I eat a large omelet from my work’s cafe. Does the trick every time.

    You just waited 12 hours? What…no shake and stir? LOL…

  8. My cleanse involves Jack in the Box monster tacos (2 for 99 cents) and Corn Nuts.

    VERY cleansing, if you know what I mean. And I think you do.

  9. HA!!!!!! Okay, I loved you before…but I’m bowing at your feet now. You just dissed the queen of Mom bloggers – the Dooce herself. And it was beyond fabulous. You just made me crave cured meat on a shelf. I’m dying for it. On the open road. You’re onto something here, MommyPie. You are.

    Eat that, Dooce. And then play your Wii to burn off the calories. BOOOYAAA!
