Vegetarian zombies walk among us

For the past several weeks, there's been this amazing brain-like fungus growing on the side of a tree on the VFW Parkway southbound, just past LaGrange. Every time I drove past, I thought it would make a great photo and vowed to stop next time. This morning, around 9:30, I saw the brain and vowed to stop on my way back (from Millennium Park). Around 10:30, I did - only to discover that in the interim, a vegetarian zombie (what else could it be?) had ripped the brain to shreds:

Question: Did you mean "This is your grain on drugs"? 'Cause brains aren't a vegetable, which is more or less the topic of conversation. Although technically, grains aren't either. And now you've got Marc going...

That's no vegetable ...

Too funny! I drove past that thing a million times... and I kept thinking I should stop and take a picture b/c it was so cool. I guess I lost my opportunity as well...
