Really Weird News: Weiners can be too filling!

Be careful before you bite into a weiner. The filling may disagree with you. In weird food news from Berlin a man tried to smuggle two dildos inside sausages. This creative smuggler went to the butcher and bought two sausages. He then took these sausages and insterted dildos inside the sausages then went back to the butcher and asked him to wrap up the sausages.

The butcher was suspicious when packing the "Schwartenmagen" sausages as they felt much heavier than they should. The butcher informed the police and an investigation found that the man had hidden a dildo inside each sausage and wanted to smuggle them to Dubai. This was not a crime in Germany. It's unknown what Dubai authorities would do if these dildos were smuggled into Dubai.

"It was two latex dildos with a natural look," said German police spokesperson. The police spokesperson said "It's not against the law here."

The smuggler should have realized that sausages could be used as sex toys even without dildos being stuffed inside. LOL.

Weird news: caskets

Trekkie fans will be very pleased to spend their last voyage in a Star Trek casket. An innovative company has teamed up with the Star Trek franchise to create Star Trek caskets which look futuristic and designs of which you may have seen on Star Trek episodes.


This marketing ploy may lead to untapped potential in a business which is otherwise stale. Caskets generally come standard in shape and color. This is the first time that such a bold design has been applied to caskets. Now fans can "live long and prosper" in their next lives by requesting their family memebers to make sure their remains are buried in a Star Trek coffin.

Disposable chopsticks can be hazardous to your health




Disposable chopsticks may be made from bamboo trees, such as those in Vietnam. These sticks are cut to shape and then treated with Hydrogen Peroxide, not any disinfectant. Then they're left outside to dry in the sun's heat. After the chopsticks have dried they will be shipped to other asian countries such as Singapore, Malaysia or Japan.

It takes about a month to get these chopsticks delivered by container to their destination. During this time they are subject to chemicals in the container which have been sprayed to keep away cockroaches and rats. Chemical residue may coat the chopsticks.

These bundles of sticks are then sent to local factories for packaging. No disinfectant is used in the process. Once packaged the chopsticks are sent to restaurants.

Eating with these chopsticks can be hazardous to your health.
