This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Why does food and consumables suddenly have to become political?

When will my Steak have Trumps Face printed on it? Do my cornflakes need some jets and other kind of political messages on it? Fuck no.

I just want to eat and drink. And the only thing I need to know from the packaging is what the product is about. Just stop making food political, what the hell is wrong with this world.

Some stupid print on the package is not going to fix this world in any way.

There is no driver of division to rival missionary behaviour.

The only reason you know this exists is because you’re on social media reading about it. You’d probably never see this in a store, and if you did it’d be one whole six-pack next to the hundreds of others brands.

I think you may be overreacting, but who knows maybe Gay Water is the next Coca-Cola.

These kinds of products are made pretty much only for pictures to be posted on social media, so if it bothers you maybe don’t browse as much idk
