My application to be "Undersecretary for the Determination of What's Completely Stupid Please Stop Doing That" is constantly being rejected for silly reasons like "this doesn't exist" and "you don't even have clearance" and "please untie yourself from the doors before we have to call security."

Aldi has a whole parade of dumbass poo poo. The line of meat products made without preservatives or nitrates ("except those naturally occuring in celery juice," which is functionally the same) is called "Never Any," like the package is "Never Any Chicken Sausage" and "Never Any Turkey Bacon," which i thought meant they were meat-replacement products that never had any chicken or turkey in them, but that is wrong. The organic poo poo often boasts "Made with real ingredients!" - it's one thing to be like "made with real [specific ingredient]" but literally "made with real ingredients"...

As a frequent buyer of fake meat products (not a vegetarian per se, just often prefer the fake stuff, particularly chicken), this would drive me insane!

Similarly, I hate when frozen products labels themselves something spelled weird, like "CHICKEN WYNGZ" or whatever, because to me, that usually makes me assume something is a faux meat, not just normal meat trying to be edgy.

It gets worse because depending on the brand WINGZ are like buffalo chicken nuggets but WYNGZ are plant-based.

Just loving label poo poo normally if you're a giant conglomerate like Tyson trying to muscle in on Beyond/Impossible's turf.

I mean if you use it sparingly, like a spoonful to fry some rice and chicken it's amazing.

Using it to deep fry is pretty bad.

Using it as a sauce like Nashville hot chicken is extremely bad.

And a 20 year old goon eating a bucket of it because a deranged fitness forum mod banned all the healthcare providers who said it was a bad idea is hilarious.

you guys know you could verify that it's over $300 in like two clicks from that tweet right

$385 for the 'serum', $320 for 'the cream', $310 for the 'liquid cream', and only $80 for the 'cleansing emulsion' - you know, for the poors

You gotta watch out on “real fruit” too. Like the grocery store brand blueberry pancakes. It’s printed right on the box, “made with real fruit”. You have to read through the ingredients to realize it’s not real blueberry. It’s tiny chunks of apple with blueberry flavoring in them. But it’s still real fruit!
