americans hearing about a culture with human sacrifice: wow! what a bunch of savages!
americans nonchalantly driving past car crashes: sucks for that guy lol

A conspiracy theory I have is that people put hot sauces like Tabasco on everything not so much for the pepper as they do for the benefits of adding vinegar to a dish and that’s what they should be focusing on and recognizing. This conspiracy theory has not gotten traction due to “lack of interest”

Absolutely goated snack. South african snacks are on another level
Walkers South African Sweet Chutney (2010-2010): Potato crisps/chips seasoned to taste like the tangy, sweet fruit relish. They were part of the "Flavour Cup" promotion in the UK, coinciding with the World Cup and featuring country-specific crisp flavors

cherry tomatoes don't taste bad but the world would be a better place if they didn't exist and restaurants couldn't make salads worse by witlessly dropping 5 or 6 of them on at a time. this is as much nuance as can be brought to the subject of cherry tomatoes
