Default Got a guess?

Anyone care to guess as to what this is?

Just curious to see how good you Macro users are. I'm new to it so you might guess it right off but after taking the pic I was amazed how getting down so close totally changes the perspective.

Give it your best shot! No prizes, but I will give you a smiley face if you get it. lol

After a couple days I'll give the answer.

At first look, I thought it was toast, but it is now looking more and more like sugar

Kind of looks like a combination of white and brown sugar on a cookie to me. Then again, what do I know.

Nope.

Ok, a hint.

It is food and it's about the size of your small pinkie fingernail.

Wow! I'd have never guessed that one. Great job... and thanks for the bit of fun, too.
