Ch-Ch-Ch-Chia!

Every Christmas, the commercials for Chia Pets start plugging the airwaves. Not small cable slots, mind you. Prime time advertising.

Seriously, how does this company stay in business? Have any of you received one? Are they cooler than first glance?

Really, I have always wanted to try one. In high school, this kid would sing "Cha-Cha-Cha Chia" at Stacey and myself. I suppose he was mocking our hair.
rude.

Your post makes me laugh because we have an un-opened chia pet that has made it's way through our family every Christmas for several years. Whoever gets it just saves it and wraps it up all pretty the next year to give to another family member. No one has ever opened it or tried to grow it, and we don't remember where it originally came from.
