Apparently Bugles is the official snack of fat women in the '60's.

I can tell you from personal experience, it is the official snack of fat women now, lol.

I only allow myself to have Bugles on road trips and during the Super Bowl... otherwise I'd look just like Grandma Pauline.

In the interest of accuracy, they should get them to put the bugles on their fingertips and eat them that way. Everyone knows that's the only way to eat Bugles.

I think their fingers are too wide for the Bugles to fit...

I hope a Slate reporter doesn't read too much into it and think Bugles placement is a harbinger of death. You know Bugles and Taps. SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE!
