Microwavable Irony

On Friday, the Nestle Prepared Foods Company recalled more than two hundred thousand pounds of its popular pepperoni-pizza-flavored Hot Pockets after receiving a number of complaints about pieces of hard red plastic being discovered inside them. The announcement comes just a month after a similar recall was issued for pieces of plastic being found inside their Spinach Artichoke Chicken Lean Pockets.

Nestle Prepared Foods has since issued a statement assuring their customers that the preservative-laden, hydrolyzed-protein-and-GMO-stuffed, enriched-white-flour-and-hydrogenated-fat-wrapped sodium bombs they've come to love will be free of potential hazards in the future.

Call me paranoid, but I don't like other people touching my food. I like as few people involved as possible between the earth and my mouth.

Now for a lighter (but no less factual) look at the battle for control of the foodiverse:

It could be outsourcing related. I read a case where Frito Lay wanted to lay off workers without paying unemployment, so they began firing them for the most minor infractions. The employees struck back and began writing vulgar messages on pieces of paper and stuffing them into the chip bags!

Viva la Revolution!!!
