I like caramel popcorn. I don't eat it very often, though, because I tend to eat it until I hit the bottom of the bag.So once a quarter, or so, I will put a bag of popcorn in the microwave, then melt the caramel packet all over it, and watch some movie while eating warm, gooey caramel popcorn. So I bought a new box, recently... they usually come in 2 or 3 packs. I bought < Orville Redenbacher's Salted Caramel Popcorn. > I usually just get "caramel," but i figured the "salted" was just some new thing, and they were out of straight-"caramel" anyway, and maybe the salt makes the caramel flavor pop more. This shit is NOT caramel popcorn. I could kinda/sorta smell some caramel while it was in the microwave, but it is just salt with a hint of a memory of a dream of caramel flavor. I don't know what goddam fucking business those uncle fucking assholes have putting the word "caramel" and a picture of fucking caramel on the box, but they are goddam incompetent asshole idiots with their heads up their asses and they should all fucking be fired and have their kids farmed out for adoption to gay couples. There were probably also millennials on the advertising team. Anyway don't buy that because it's bullshit. Posted by Vince on Jul. 01 2015,07:04
Noted. No Redenbacher popcorn. Also do no screw with Gordo's caramel.

It's the lies that grind my gears. The lies and deceptions.

Don't try the new "croissant" hot dog from Sonic, then.

My local Wendy's just stopped selling them. I ordered them three times while they were available. Posted by TPRJones on Jul. 02 2015,13:31
In that case it's probably better that they were lying. Ghost pepper heat is the sort of heat wings restaurants tend to require signed waivers before you eat 'em. It's novelty food, not something you'd really want for lunch.

After a marathon hot sauce-eating competition at work (my first week), the dumb-asses finished off with the ghost pepper sauce I linked. I did a few shots of it. Was ill for an hour after. On the plus side, rest of the day was paid vacation. Got sent home with an escort to my car, in case my stomach lining suddenly lost integrity and I collapsed. |
