April 1st

Since Mazurland would not be so cruel as to post some sort of April Fools prank today, we provide our readers a list of the top 100 April Fools Hoaxes of all time, as compiled by the Museum of Hoaxes. Example:

"#21: Whistling Carrots

In 2002 the British supermarket chain Tesco published an advertisement in The Sun announcing the successful development of a genetically modified 'whistling carrot.' The ad explained that the carrots had been specially engineered to grow with tapered airholes in their side. When fully cooked, these airholes caused the vegetable to whistle."

Enjoy.

I always found it hard to believe that anyone fell for the famous "Swiss spaghetti harvest" hoax.
