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.

I wonder if posting a display of Slim Jim's would get the same weird vitriolic environmentalism. I'm not saying we shouldn't be better, but what I'm saying is single-use plastics for convenience jerky is not fucking original. Why is this the hill you guys are choosing to die on?

Uh, yeah. Nobody sane thinks single serve plastic packaging is good.

Who are you responding to? I already conceded this point.

You wondered if a different, older product would get the same comments and I answered you (yes). What's the difficulty here?
