Even in our high-tech Internet age, libraries are still operating. Maybe not as many hours per week as a couple decades ago, maybe not as meeting places for teenagers on school nights, but they still serve a function beyond providing rest rooms for homeless people.

- Bologna
- Pop Tart
- Bologna
- Uncooked bacon
- A taco
- French fries
- Bologna
- Marijuana leaf
- Kraft Singles cheese slice
- Pickle slices
