Topical Insanity

Today, a Pop-Tart attempted to set my car on fire. The rogue breakfast food (strawberry, in case you want to avoid delicious arsonists) had been sitting in my car for several days for altogether fuzzy reasons, and it was during my lunch break at work that I decided to head out to the car and rid myself of the tasty nuisance. When I opened the packet, I was shocked to discover that it looked as though the Pop-Tarts had somehow gotten into a toaster without exiting their wrapper. They were practically burnt, black at the edges and mildly crispy.

I know it was most likely the sun that caused this, considering the shiny wrapper and the exposure to the sun, but that is still the very last thing I would ever expect to set my car on fire. If it had, I would never find out - who would ever expect a Pop-Tart to be the culprit? Does car insurance cover that? Has it ever happened before? If it has, I'm guessing that it was never discovered. Be wary of leaving your Pop-Tarts unattended - to remedy this, I recommend immediate consumption.
