KFC’s Crazy Handjob Ad And Delicious Weed Ramen [THE KATCHUP]
Man, what a busy week.
Ben and Jerry, the founders of Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream were arrested for protesting at the US Capitol earlier this week. KFC posted a pretty NSFW ad on their Twitter and some folks got pretty steamed.
A popular brand of alcoholic root beer decides it’s gonna get even more alcoholic. Awesome. Remember that cooler Kickstarter campaign that was supposed to be the greatest tailgate accessory ever? Turns out it kinda sucks. A pizza box from Cybertron transforms into a pipe and someone created weed ramen. Because 4/20 was a couple days ago.
This was our week in food news, which you can find out more about in episode 17 of the Katchup.
Let’s also take a moment to remember Doris Roberts, Prince and Chyna. Rest in peace, guys.
OK, on to the KATCHUP!

Cooler, Not So Cool

Nearly two years later, the company is asking backers to fork up another $97 in order to get their coolers “expedited,” and people think that’s pretty uncool. Read more.
