Legend has it that gingerbread men were test subjects for the Mayan creation gods trying to determine what form humans would take. At first they made gingerbread squares, but quickly decided that this shape would limit the mobility and ability to worship of their new subjects. Once they arrived at a shape with two arms and two legs--much more effective for fighting and gathering gold--they celebrated by eating them (the gingerbread men of course, not the humans).
