If you’ve ever wondered what Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s face tastes like, the Liberal Party of Canada has a way for you to find out. As the Liberals gather for their annual convention in Winnipeg this week, a cookie cutter of Trudeau’s face is reportedly the in-demand convention swag.

The cookie cutters are $20 a pop, but as human rights lawyer Shefman put it, who could rightfully pass up an invitation to bite into Justin Trudeau’s head (reasons for the faux cannibalism may vary, of course)? Shefman also suggested, in an interview with the CBC, that if Justin Trudeau was a cookie, that he’d be oatmeal-chocolate chip, because “they are fun and popular but also good for us.”
No word on whether an eyeroll from the reporter immediately followed.
If you aren’t attending the convention, the cookie cutters are also available on the party’s website, and they have plenty. The Liberal Party commissioned 900 of the baking aides as a giveaway to donors who bought a raffle ticket for a chance to win dinner with the Canadian Finance Minister last year. The event was canceled after it drew ire from an ethics administrator who thought it was suspicious that a Finance Minister was offering to have dinner with ordinary Canadians in return for cash.
