Admit it: almost everyone, even if they eschew processed meats, likes the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile. Sure, it’s a rolling advertisement, but so are most of the things we remember fondly from childhood. But when the motorized meat product rolled into my city, it was decked out for Halloween. That, combined with the weather that’s still cloudy and gloomy, makes the Weinermobile surprisingly creepy.

Thanks, Sarah!
