Cha Cha Chia


As Seen on TV of the Day: Chia Pets
Website of the Day: As Seen on TV

Almost every Christmas I would get one of those gifts that you see on TV infomercials. The only item I failed to receive was the infamous Chia Pet.

What is a Chia Pet you ask? It is a brown figure made from clay covered in "chia" seeds that you water. They started out as animal shaped figures, but now have a wide variety including Obama.
They have branched out into other plants such as the Chia Herb Garden and the Chia Tree.

If you want more info on these interesting planters, go to their wiki page. They have quite the history.
