Satirical supermarket ads

January 1, 2017 6:45 AM

A year or two ago I ran across a satirical supermarket circular on the web - you know, those colorful newspaper inserts that advertise "Cooked Ham - $3.49/lb" - that combined standard food pictures with strange descriptions.

For example (and I'm just making this up) it might have combined a picture of broccoli with the description "Toad nuggets".

This is a particularly tricky google search combination, especially since I don't remember any of the original captions.

Anybody remember this hilarious page?

Yep, the hilarious (but often VERY NSFW) Liartown USA.
