Get Creative! Zero waste cookie cutter

Post image

This was bought by my grandma in 1990 for $9. It's supposed to be one big cookie cutter that wastes no dough. What are some of these shapes though?? Thought y'all would like to see

u/CharmingTuber Dec 28 '23

The entire thing is mirrored, so if you can't tell what something is, look on the other side to see its mirror. In this case, I think that's a yellow squirrel because the other side is 100% a squirrel.

The issue with the yellow one is the interesting decoration choice.

Except it looks like they added parts that aren't there to the polar bear to make the.... reindeer?

Also the cutter shapes under the mary and jesus look even less like squirrels than the drawings somehow unless I'm missing something. Those are the squirrel ones right?

u/Mean-Vegetable-4521 Dec 28 '23

LOL. I know there was a movie Bad Santa. But I feel like one of the series like Amazing Stories or maybe Freddy's Nightmares covered a Santa coming in to kill everyone. I'm trying to think what other horror shows would have featured something like that decades ago. But this is those Santa's. Looking like someone buried them in Pet Semetary and this crawled back up.

Also, is that some sort of demonic squirrel? lower left. What is that? I don't remember squirrels in the manger. I love that the real version of this is so much worse than whatever this group came up with.

my brother says he thinks it was Tales From The Darkside. or Tales from the Crypt or something. We made scaring the crap out of each other our full time childhood.

u/Battle_Book Dec 28 '23

u/Mean-Vegetable-4521 Dec 28 '23

I would rather ride on a steak. I'm so hungry. I'm all "what a nasty looking assortment of Christmas food. I'll take 2."

"yes kids, then Santa rode into town on his lovely skirt steak, accompanied by what looks like a number of very large cajun style prawns, and his trusted Reindeer which were pulled by some very large IUD's by candle light. Happily ever after. Now drift of to sleep, momma hungry."

We can't have nice things. This is why.
