1. Complaints about the new feature?
Some people might go for the "toothpick included" option.

2. And remember that GOPBagger mantra...Less regulation! It's good for business!
...but it will kill the consumer in the end.

Hey Baggers...I want MORE regulations.

3. There was something potentially useful in there? And they recalled it?

5. OMG, when I first read the headline, I read it as:
"Kraft voluntarily recalls Velveeta Shells & Cheese single serve cups due to possible WEIRD pieces."

And I thought, ":wtf: "


:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

6. Scared me.
I just ate a Kraft MW macaroni & cheese. It wasn't the shells though.

By the time I finished typing this I realized I've no doubt eaten worse, but it's good they're doing the right thing without a lawsuit.

Still, since I've probably met my required daily amount of wire, I think I'll check the date code anyway.
