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!

They're temporarily renaming them "Chilean Sea Bass Crackers".

I thought you were joking. How is this not the Onion?

It's nottheonion 🙃

Edit: also it's marketing! It works. It got us talking about a snack product that no one ever talks about. We're doing it right now.

I was just talking about Goldfish an hour ago when I got some Goldfish for me and my kid.

I was just talking about Chilean Sea Bass and how much I detest fish in general!

This new name puts me off.

Unfortunately thinking about them dredges up memories of the taste of cardboard. So I will not be buying them.

And while I hate that, it isn't going to result in me buying any of said shit tier snack
