Table Manners of the Eastern Chipmunk


Not having access to reusable, sustainable and all organic shopping bags, the eastern chipmunk uses its cheek pouches to haul the groceries home.

I have sometimes been accused of stuffing too much into my mouth, scarfing my meals down in a matter of nano-seconds. I blame this habit on the Army where before any meal no one says "bon appetit" as the French do, but rather "get it and go" as in, why are you taking so long? But even with my tendency to scarf food, I'm an amateur food-stuffer compared to the eastern chipmunk. I offer the photo above as evidence.
