If you have eaten all the powdered donuts you can handle and can’t finish your green tea there is no need to throw out the leftovers.  Just put them together to make a solar cell.

We all know policemen are addicted to donuts. I have seen a lot of the local officers in the various Starbucks. Now, what if they start drinking the tea and glowing in the dark? hmmm?
I mean, GMOs aside..isn’t this a little too Robo-cop for you?
