Dear Route 11, It’s 2022…
I’m in the weird snack fandom. Yes, there is such a thing. Over the last year I’ve tried Lesser Evil Sun Poppers (the alleged sour cream and onion flavor was nowhere to be found), watermelon hibiscus popcorn (not actually that bad), Takis lollipops (terrible and pretty much impossible to eat).
I’ve eaten a scorpion live on the internet. No, the scorpion was dead, and encased in the worst artificially flavored sucker I have ever had in my life.
Weird snacks fall into all kinds of categories. There’s the ridiculously healthy, such as baked pea chips. There’s the just plain bad. There’s the one culture not understanding another, such as the pumpkin spice chocolate “orange” I found on the Halloween candy shelf. Dear Americans, orange is allowed, other citrus is allowed, mint is allowed. Pumpkin spice is wrong.
Then there’s the omg packaging moments. And one I found recently wasn’t just omg packaging.
It was “OMG it is 2022.”

- Mama Zuma’s Revenge echoes Montezuma’s Revenge which, of course, implies that Mexican food will make you sick.
- OMG that pinup…
