Grocery store evacuated because of string cheese incident

Bomb-sniffing dogs and a bomb technician were called to Dick's Market after an employee reported seeing a cylindrical device wrapped in duct tape near a cooler of dry ice. The device turned out to be a piece of string cheese wrapped in duct tape, made to resemble a bomb. Some juveniles are suspected in the string cheese incident, which resulted in melted ice cream and milk going bad. (Standard.net)

Isn't there a band or a book with the title "the string cheese incident?"

Oh, great. Now some potheads will decide that String Cheese Incident would make a cool band name.

Ok, the link answered my comment. I thought that it was a band.

They're already a band. I hate jam bands, but that's probably because I don't smoke pot. You've got to be stoned out of your mind to appreciate that crap.

I'm betting that whoever came up with the idea to use string cheese as a fake bomb was stoned out of their minds, so it fits.

Now we won't be allowed to take string cheese on airplanes. Or duct tape.

I have a short attention span. I can't stay focused through 15 minute solos.

A salivating bomb dog might have been a tipoff.

If it's not an American flag, it might be a bomb.
