Simply made with complex machinery. Or complex Keebler elf magic. (Spotted by Dubba at Walmart.)
No Keebler magic to knock out the holes in their pretzel thins? (Spotted by Dubba at Walmart.)
If I was a pirate and only interested in products with carbs, I’d probably be laughed at by other pirates and have scurvy. (Spotted by Amanda at Target.)
Is there a South African ice cream company willing to make a patriotic ice cream with all the colors in their country’s flag? (Spotted by Traumajunky at Cash Savers.)
I’d like to eat Campbell’s SpaghettiOs MicroOs with some chorizOs under gazebOs while listening to some banjOs. (Spotted by Amanda at Walmart.)

Observation: Pretzel Thins are the new Popped Chips.
The Townhouse Pretzel Thins are a joke! They only have the shape of a pretzel thin… they are actually a cracker product. I felt very mislead when I opened them. They’re not bad, but not what I was expecting.
So I tried to Spaghetti O’s Micros. And while I thought the idea was totally worthwhile and fantastic- Don’t do it. I’m not trying to Bash- I’m literally trying to save you.
I’m a very capable person and it was almost impossible to get the plastic sheet pull lid off from all the glue that was sealing it- Glue that I can only imagine seeped into the food you’re supposed to eat because it’s been two hours and I CANNOT get the taste of burnt plastic (chemical ick) out of my mouth even with my toothbrush and Listerine! I ate two bites and threw it away.
Dear Campbells- PLEASE try again- it’s a good idea- just poor packaging.
