Kill it with AGENT ORANGE!
Seriously, was the focus group microdosing or what when they came up with this abomination? It's like Swamp Thing has come ashore in Aisle Six!

This guy reminds me about that one character in "Dogma"
Golgothan... The Shit Deamon
@cstross Fruit and veg are nowhere near as profitable as ultra-processed "food" and candy, so it's good for business to deter them using subliminal marketing.

@cstross Imma gonna steal this for a new D&D monster… Some sort of edible plant matter golem perhaps,
“When Edible Arrangements Turn Bad.”
@cstross Jabba the Fruit!
@cstross it's like a vegetarian Oogie Boogie after Jack Skellington ripped away his hessian sack ghost outfit !!
@cstross I think this escaped from one of your books. 😁🤪
@cstross It looks like it could get elected President.
@cstross I am so glad I am not the only one. I came around the corner at Tesco and felt like I walked into Oogie Boogie’s plant-based cousin. The size of it enhances the HORROR.
If it's anything like how we do things in Canada, it was probably a good initiative that would look bad politically to kill so they paid an agency that is linked to the cattle industry or sugar industry to spearhead this campaign so they made this abomination to say they did a thing but gee, it just didn't work.
In Ontario, they made the heat pump rebate program so ungodly to access it's nearly impossible. You need to follow so many steps and pay $20k upfront for the pumps. I muttered under my breath that they probably paid off someone to make the program as shitty as possible. Then I found out it's literally administered through the natural gas distributor. Open corruption is what we've got here.
@chu It's 100% a campaign by the largest supermarket chain in the UK, Tesco. Not government.
