  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

[...] I asked the man behind the counter if the Steak Nuggets were such a hasty retreat because they were unpopular with his diners. He said the following: “Well, we were one of the last stores to have those things, because nobody bought ’em.”

I've ate the Chipotle cup of chicken last night. Not bad, shared some w my pitbulls.

I had the fresh meat nuggets from chik fila two days ago. Not bad, not great.

I don't order this, but if my wife is bringing home slop from those stores....this is all ill tolerate.

99% of food is tastier, cheaper and more nutritious home cooked. That's not new.

This reminds me of the "Big Gulp" 64oz of soda for 0.99 days - basically when sugar was replaced with HFCS and the price of soda syrup fell through the floor.

We've been automating factory production of chicken and pork for a while now, gotta sell it somewhere.
