Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

$13 per jar? Fuck all the way off.

It is a momento to collect, like a concert tshirt or your first condom.

They said "It is a momento to collect, like a concert tshirt".

Look at this guy who doesn't buy merch...

this would honestly make more sense if it was just a labelled empty jar, but when they put actual sauce in it stops being a novelty item and starts being food, and 13 bucks for a jar of sauce is hilarious

So then you are really just paying for the label?

[–] snooggums@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago

Of course, just like most branded goods.

Now I wonder where my forst condom ended up. Certainly I didn't use it.
