Need creative ideas for a Hoarders party.....?!


Question: Need creative ideas for a Hoarders party.....?
A friend of mine is having some people over to watch an episode of Hoarders on TV. She's asking everyone to bring a "dirty snack or dessert" I know someone is bringing a mud pie with gummy worms in it, but I'm just not very creative when it comes to thinking of ideas. Do you have any suggestions on a dirty snack or dessert I could take??
Thanks!

- Nachos look kind of dirty! Just make sure there are lots of toppings. That ontop of a pile up nacho chips will look like a pile of mismatched home items!
- You could bake cupcakes. But for the icing (whether store bought or homemade) stir in sprinkles, brown sugar to make it look "dirtty" you can also buy gummy candy rats, snakes, worms and spiders so put one on top of each cupcake!
- Make "garbage bags" ! You can try to find black baggies (like ones they use for bake sales, or spray paint clear ones, then put chocolates or candies, or fruit (whatever you want) inside them and tie them with yellow ribbon or twist ties!

Its a tricky theme but I hope I helped!



herbed potatoes or seasoned french fries (if you're looking for something a little more substantial than gooey "mud pie".) If it's a dessert you want, type "shoo fly pie" in any search engine (it's made with molasses). Dark bread like pumpernickel would probably work pretty well in little sandwiches. "French Vanilla" ice cream (as opposed to just plain vanilla) has little vanilla bean specks in it, so that looks pretty dirty. Try "tater tots" with pepper on them, served with brown mustard.

Hoarders tend to collect more than just junk, so if you're looking for a party favor, take some of those snappy mouse traps (new ones, that are clean), and have gummy "rats" stuck in them (most candy stores can get you these.)

Wrap stuff in newsprint (not the color section, the ink is less toxic if it gets on you) , old torn out pages from magizines and books, and rags (an old torn up T-shirt works well, too)

Stuff it all in a paper grocery bag and you're good to go.

I think a dessert would be easiest--anything that can be topped with things that resemble dirt or goo-

brown sugar
cinnamon
chocolate or caramel sauce & chocolate chips
crushed cookies/candies (oreo, m&ms)
peanut butter

or maybe deviled eggs with the filling tinted green or brown with food coloring--that's pretty gross

there's a snack mix called puppy chow you make w/ powdered sugar and it kinda looks dirty, don't know recipe you can google it

even cocktail weinies in the crock pot w/ the grape jelly sauce looks pretty gross, you can google that too



Bring some Ants on a Log>>>celery sticks filled with cream cheese and raisins on top in a row

Here's a link for making Swamp Juice>>>>>http://familyfun.go.com/recipes/swamp-ju…

Or you can make Maggot Sliders>>clever spin on the miniature hamburger. Grass-fed beef, white cheddar, and a homemade ketchup seem innocent enough until you garnish with your favorite scare tactics.
