A Destroyed Battle
We really want to believe that these are pictures of the same gingerbread men taken before and after the desserts were served, or it can be a before and after of the battle. What possibly could be the reason why the gingerbread men in the second picture look so tired and hurt.
We know this isn’t the case, but it would at least explain why some of them seem so disorganized. The bottom image, especially with the gingerbread guy drowning in icing, is highly believable as the result of terrible combat. Whoever eats him better be a sucker for sweets.
