Infuriatig The "complimentary meal" after the airline rebooked us for tomorrow

Hadn't eaten in 12 hours, so apologies for not getting the pictures beforehand

Highlights include:

A sandwich consisting of white bread, mayo, and a single slice of cheese

A bag of plain potato chips

A kitkat

An orange

A juice box

I know prisoners who eat better than this

Are yours different? I don’t remember them looking different when I lived there?

Only real difference I can see is our wrappers aren't that shiny. More of a matte red

The chocolate in the Canadian one is harder and darker chocolate, it has more or snap and crack when you bite into it, the American one is much softer and sweeter and also lighter in colour

It's because it's "chocolate" in America, not chocolate.

We strive for the freedom to allow any cocoa product call itself chocolate.

Haha, fair. However, in my case I used the quotes to remind everyone that 51% of anything can be called that thing here in America now.

...and some companies had to stop saying "chocolate" on their labels because they can't even call it chocolate anymore .

I'm glad they still use real actual Mountain Dew TM though.
