I always knew that on a primal level food registers as being a top priority. I didn’t expect to see the day that we projected our favorite fried goodies into politics.
I recently became a fan of the Facebook group ‘Can this Onion Ring get more Fans than Steven Harper’. For those of you who aren’t aware Steven (I like to call him Stevie) is the head of the Conservative Party of Canada and the Canadian population reluctantly elected him into office due to the lack of a better option.
Needless to say it didn’t take long for the Onion Ring to roll it’s way past Stevie’s 29 822 fans. Mr. Ring (or is it Mrs…. how do you tell the gender of an onion ring?) currently sits at 165 653 fans.
The trend has spread. New groups such as ‘Can this Pickle get more Fans than Nickleback?’ and ‘Can this Apple get more Fans than Creeed?’ (purposely misspelled due to copyright issues) have recently come across my news feed. I quickly joined both. Nothing beats the crunch of a zesty pickle, and apples… well where do I even begin? As for Nickleback and Creed they just can’t compete. The combined fans of over 800 000 seem to agree.
Food: a tool for Facebook mockery since 2010.
