Lay’s Potato Chips Canceled After Horribly Offensive Word Spotted On Bag
The Glorious American ^ | 3/20/21

Posted on 03/22/2021 1:29:54 PM PDT by Impala64ssa

Yikes. It looks like, for the second time this month, another potato company is in big trouble.

On Friday morning, over fifty grocery store chains have canceled their contract with Lay’s Potato Chips after a horrific racial slur was spotted on one of their bags. It is a long-standing rule that the Glorious American not write the word itself because we are a classy publication and we got in huge trouble last time. Nevertheless, the Lay’s brand, apparently desperate to release their deep-seated racism somewhere, hid the dreadful word after the phrase “Salt & Vi.”

“They were trying to be funny. They thought it would be a riot. And in a very real way, it’s a riot they shall have,” CNN’s Don Lemon said. “We shall take the high road on this one—I mean the high way. Their headquarters are in Casa Grande, Arizona. We’ll take the highway over there and burn it to the ground.”

Biden’s FBI opened an investigation that found the Lay’s company guilty of systematic racism in under three minutes.

“The real work will be about their name. ‘Lays?’ Sounds like an admission of some type of sexual assault,” an FBI agent said. “We don’t believe it was consensual.”

Update: The Federal government has forced Lay’s company to exclusively make white crackers. Also, they have changed their name to ‘Abstainer’s’

The name on the top of the bag promotes rape culture as well apparently. LAYS......Just sayin’. Is ‘Dicks’ now ‘offensiver’ than they were for wimping out on firearms?

Oh, bulls*&% Don. You could read racism into a phone book. I seriously doubt that’s Lay’s official position and you know it. If you’ve never made a mistake, Don, then cast the first stone. Otherwise, sit down and STFU.

We always used to joke that Lays Salt & Vinegar chips were “douche flavor.”

Sheesh!

Everyone knows the “N” word is only offensive if it is spelled with two (2) “g”s.

</ sarcasm>

So, per Don Lemon, the utterance of the “n-word justifies rioting. Sounds like a threat to me, butt boy. Riot around me and I’ll start shooting.

It's like Nixon's White House.

Now Nixon could be a funny guy sometimes but he had some real stiffs working for him. John Dean. John Erlichman. Bob Haldeman. Alexander Haig. Fred Buzhardt. Alexander Butterfield. E Howard Hunt who was always begging for money. Maybe hard workers but they lacked in the humor department, that is for sure.

Now Gordon Liddy was a colorful character but he was pushed out pretty early.
