Giant Microbes

You've got to have a sick sense of humour -- and most people in the medical profession probably do -- the ones I've met anyway -- and that's probably the appeal of Giant Microbes. What is Giant Microbes? A company that makes "stuffed animals that look like tiny microbes-only a million times actual size!" Each plush toy comes with an image and infomation on the real microbe.
