MMeM, Vol. 6 Issue 4 – Is this a joke?

Have you seen the commercials for Nutella or am I just imagining this horrid looking “spread”?   I may hear from some people who have actually consumed this product and claim to like it (-liars).  Because, I do know some visually impaired people.

Seriously, is this a joke?  Have networks been duped into some April Fool’s type joke where they are running old Saturday Night Live commercial spoofs?

Not sure where to even start with this one. It’s kind of like shooting fish in a barrel.

• If ever there was a reason to use food coloring, this is it.
• Dear makers of Nutella; If you ARE using food coloring, you’re doing it wrong.
• Talk about having to eat a “$#!+ Sandwich”.
• I’ve heard that the best napkins to use when eating this “stuff” are made by Pampers.

When I was kid, we would sometimes have creamed chipped beef on toast for dinner. My dad always called it “$#!+ on a Shingle”. I believe he came upon this terminology from his days in the army, but in any case I really think he just liked saying “$#!+ on a Shingle”. If ever there was a food stuff deserving of that name, this is it.

I love how the makers of Nutella take special care to designate it as “The ORIGINAL Hazelnut Spread”. Because, as we all know, there have been countless imitators of this enticing fare!

Even if this stuff cured cancer, I still wouldn’t eat it.

By the way, here’s a fun fact. If you search for “$#!+ Sandwich”, it is listed on Wikipedia as being “Redirected from Crap Sandwich”.  Glad we’ve got that straightened out.
