various governmental chains now force all sortsa information to be displayed on the wrappers of food. they're even trying, successfully, to get restaurants to display this information on the walls. its basic info: grams of fat, number of calories, etc. its all based on this mythical diet plan with a new pyramid none of us learned. ...whatever. thats a whole 'nother fuck you.
this particular fuck you goes directly towards a two-part facet of this informational decree; the serving size and the servings per container.
they are dumb. at least when it comes to traditional food consumption. and sure. i get it. i'm a portly lad or something. but whatever! these are ridiculous expectations.
servings per container in a regular size bag of tostitos: 13. 13! now, granted, sitting down and eating an entire regular size bag of tostitos is clearly a terrible, terrible dieticious mistake. however, i don't think its at all unreasonable to think you and 4 or 5 other friends could polish off a bag in the first quarter of a game. you know, assuming all of you go over the recommended serving size of 7 chips!
a regular loaf of bread has the audacity to print on its side that a suggested serving size is 1 slice of bread. one slice of bread!!! that means, even beyond the lettuce, tomato, mustard, and a few slabs of turkey, you're already fucking with your diet by topping your sandwich with a second piece!
a can of reddi-whip, light reddi-whip, that every single mother fucker here has shotgunned long-before, and even after, testing the drug-related usage has how many servings?
20!!! 20 servings!!! they want that delicious container to last between 20 of your friends, and/or 20 cups of hot chocolate.
sounds fucking insane, right?
well guess what!
i lied!
its not 20!
ITS 40!!!!
40 FUCKING SERVINGS!!
40!! FUCKING!! SERVINGS!!
a carton of eggs is meant for a family of 12. the lil 20 oz bottles of soda list themselves as being for two. you can use the same box of spaghetti for 8 dinners in a row. the list goes on and on.
and thats why this is a full serving of fuck you!
