St. Peter School fifth-grader Zach McDonald, left, shows an Operation Snowball member that he has finished eating a Hersheys Kiss as classmate Drew Stegeman looks on Monday afternoon at the school. Students were trying to unwrap and eat the candy while wearing special gloves, seen on McDonald, that simulate the effects of drinking alcohol. McDonald was eating — and competing — for Stegeman, who said he didn’t like the taste of chocolate. (H-W Photo/Philip Carlson)
