You discover a single solitary Cheez-It waiting for you on your desk. What do you do?

Throw it away, unless either I know its origin or someone wanders by and wants it before I dispose of it...I might marvel at it briefly and offer it to passersby, but its final fate will be the trash can.

I'd just leave it there and wait for someone to come comment on it :)

How long it has been there is anybody's guess. It's only one (whatever); I can get by without it quite readily.

I would do a combination of many of these, but the most important part would be eating the fated cheese snack.

Throw it away--my desk is in the lab--and wonder how it got there.

It's pretty common for me to have left food on my desk from the day before.

I might wonder who left it there, and why. I'd certainly throw it away. I might even be irritated that some off-shift employee was eating at my desk.

I throw it away, but I try to find the person who committed this crime. If you let things like this slide, then people keep doing it. Who knows in a couple of weeks people could be leaving whole bags of these horrible things in my cubicle. Do I really want that? I say nay.

Atzilut (is that Aztec, by chance, or Toltec or something?): I was just curious... I got pretty much the answers I suspected.

I'd leave it be in case it belonged to someone. But under no circumstances would I eat it. Icky barf. Cheese-food is evil.

whoever is responsible for this survey -- you have broken the sanctity of . . .well, you know what you've done.

MUTE: Atzilut is hebrew for 'nearness' I believe -- it's the highest of the four universes in the Kabbalah. Atzilut, Beriah, Yetzirah, Assiyyah. We live in Assiyyah.

Time to change the location of my super secret cheeze-it hiding place...

Encase it in lucite and give it to someone I'm not very fond of to use as a paper weight. *** Topper - you'd really eat a Cheez-It??

I'd think that someone was trying to give me a smile to start my day. Such a nice thing to do.

I picked the wander comment.. but it would be more of a throw it away and be paranoid about who is rifling through my desk when I am not there and ask the few cirmcumspect people that I know if they know who may have left it.

Marvel at it for awhile, and if it doesn't get up and walk away after a suitable period (by around, say, lunch) eat the bugger.

Don't eat it. Do something to it (ex. let is fall on floor). Find empty Cheez-It bag, place Cheez-It in bag and pass it off as the last Cheez-It and give it to someone else to eat. Or use it to get small kid to do do as I bid him in return for the Cheez-It.

If you could see my work surfaces, you would understand that it just might not be possible for me to eat it- or maybe even notice it. If it showed up someplace else though I'd probably just eat it and not wonder much- miracles are better appreciated that pondered. ***romkey- I was going on the "single instance of the granular snack food of your choice," but you never know, if I'm really hungry, any cheez-it in a storm.

I wouldn't eat it, I'd leave it somewhwere on my desk. The person who left it there would come by and look for a reaction sooner or later. If it was oversight, they won't, and I'd throw it away after I got bored of waiting.

Check the calendar - is it Cheese Weasel Day?

This is absolutely the very best survey I have ever had the pleasure to take part in!

Gilly, "...at night the Cheese Weasels come".
Pandora, sarcasm?

Bill, no, no no. I really love it a lot. I don't know how to convey my non-sarcastic intentions. I mean it, I love it.

Now you can comment on it again thanks to bill!

Oh yay!

Free Cheeze-It!! Woo hoo!

Wonder where the hell it came from. Throw it in the trash.

This is brilliant! Who thought of it!!!? did it really happen???

a...what?

Eww.. throw it away..

I would wonder around asking who left it.

Throw it away.

Eat it because it's a free cheezit!

Exactly. It's a CheezIt. You can't just waste CheezIt's! CheezIt's RULE!

I wholeheartedly agree! Cheezits are meant to be eaten! Mmmm!

What's Cheez-It?

throw it away

Throw it away. I don't like Cheesies.

depending on how hungry I am, I'd probabbly eat it and then an hour later cross my fingers it wasnt laced with poison by one of my mortal enemies as soon as I feel a stomach cramp. Man, hell, as long as I am away in college, there allways appears to be a shortage of food. Now that I am back, I might actually end up throwing it away.

I am under the impression that Cheez-It is not Kosher or something.
