Downsides of having your head carved in butter at the Minnesota State Fair

Tubs of margarine thrown through your windows

Awkward family dinners for months while you use up the butter

Tasteless "on a stick" jokes

You always wonder whether you'd look better salted

People saying, "They sure do know how to butter you up!"

Getting mooned by fairgoers while you pose in the refrigerated booth

People saying about you, "She's hot—everywhere butterface!"

Butter artist refuses to depict you without your braces

You're making out with a guy and he says, "I can't believe it's not butter!"

Living the rest of your life in fear that "butter princess" will appear in the headline of your obituary
