Mildly Interesting

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.

Why does food and consumables suddenly have to become political?

When will my Steak have Trumps Face printed on it? Do my cornflakes need some jets and other kind of political messages on it? Fuck no.

I just want to eat and drink. And the only thing I need to know from the packaging is what the product is about. Just stop making food political, what the hell is wrong with this world.

Some stupid print on the package is not going to fix this world in any way.

There is no driver of division to rival missionary behaviour.

Food and drink are incredibly political in general, this is just one aspect of it.
