How did you "play" with your food as a kid?

I was just eating some Cocoa Pebbles and remembered that I used to imagine the contents of the bowl as a crumbling ice cap.
During Looney Tunes, I would grab some Cheetos and pretend I was Bugs with some carrots.

I only ever recall "smoking" cheetos. And maybe pretending bugles were vampire fangs or super long finger nails.0

I used to make mashed potato volcanoes with gravy lava, and sacrifice the pea people to the volcano gods. I would also name cuts of beef before they were cooked (Betty Beef, Robert Roast, Sam the Striploin).2

* operate on pieces of orange. The patient has a tumor! Slice it open with a steak knife, remove seed.
* the frosting surface of a Pop Tart looks like the fault line during an earthquake if you push up and pull apart
* two Pringles together, facing oppositely in the mouth for a duck beak

My parents have been naming every turkey they've ever cooked for Christmas or Easter since about 1978. Every single one has been named Fred. We're up to about Fred XXXVII now.2 -

I used to pile up cauliflower florets to the side and pretend they were clouds, and the rest of the plate is "earth" then re-enact Care Bear episodes with other vegetables as characters. Then to justify eating them, apparently when care bears get old, they turn themselves into gummy bears then are reborn when children eat them.
I "extracted parasites" from the bellies of apples (the seeds), but unfortunately the apples always ended up dying and then eaten by cannibals (yep, I was a bit weird).

Great minds think alike.0 -
I used to rake over my mashed potatoes with my fork and make a garden.
I was a very picky eater and very boney child so I rarely even ate my food.0 -
