Isn’t this the same company that the bhopal incident arose from? Second question that was in India, wasn’t it

Aged like ~~milk~~ methyl isocyanate

Not sure how much of a meme the pic itself is, but it's interesting and the context amusing in a dark, "laugh to hide the tears of despair and hopelessness" way, so I'll leave it up.

I guess I could have added a picture, “aged like milk” or something to meme-iffy it. Just very darkly amusing.
