Muffins = Muffin Top

Starbuck's Blueberry Streusal

Have you ever noticed how the muffin top on a muffin balloons out over the edge of the wrapper? Like the paper casing just can't hold anymore and has to push the bulk of the muffin out and over the top? Well, picture that paper wrapper being your jeans and picture that ballooning bulk as your stomach. Now, we have a muffin top! Its a cruel reality, but we've all seen it - laying down to button our pants - only standing at parties, paralyzed by the fear of ripping our jeans - only wearing long, lose tops to cover up any bulge we see - boys, only wearing your shirts untucked (ugh). These are not pleasant moments, people.

One thing that will greatly add to these Muffin Tops are muffins themselves. Lets check out the worst culprits of all!
