Shaving Cream. I once made a puppet od an oversized Hostess Twinkie  
for a parody of PUNCH & JUDY called LUNCH & FOODIE. LUNCH would beat  
up junk food puppets with a big spoon. When LUNCH hit TWINKIE white  
shaving cream would gush out TWINKIE'S nose holes. Kids & adults loved  
it.
It was part of a 3 person puppet-masks-live actors musical entitled  
FARWELL TO FARMS back in the 1970's. It toured for years, mostly to  
farm communities. After the show there were often organized panel  
discussions with politicians, farmers and corporate types.  
Corporations tried to get us banned. They failed. While it was comedy,  
it was very well researched.
