When the chef made the chocolate truffle, some kids rang the bell - ding dong! - and ran away. While the chef answered the door, his assistant accidentally replaced the chocolate ganache centre with actual truffles (the mushrooms). The error was only discovered once they were in the oven, and once they were pulled out ... uh-oh ... they were too expensive for me to buy. Have you seen the prices of truffles recently? Yeesh.

So, from the expensive-but-sublime to the ... equally expensive (but sublime? depends on your tastes ...)

Beluga Caviar

(Seriously. If you wanted some Beluga Caviar at the beginning of the millennium, it would set you back about $7,000 to $10,000/kg ($3,200 to $4,500/lb). Wow).

The Beluga Caviar went bad, because it was sitting on the counter, as I furiously googled what the frick Beluga Caviar even is...

Unhappy Meal from Burger King

(BK launched this with an expensive ad campaign to tell people with mental issues that "it's OK not to be OK". WTF? So now having depression or anxiety is "Not OK", but it's OK to have it. Thanks, BK.

As for the Unhappy Meal itself, it's probably a burger, fries and Coke. Because everybody knows that all you need to fix mental issues is a BK burger, fries and Coke. I repeat: WTF?

BK, you are NOT helping!)

Did I kill the thread? Sorry if I did.

My Unhappy Meal was removed because of a questionable marketing campaign.
