Seriously? The product is caramel coated popcorn, you’d think they might give it a more appropriate name, such as…

Caramel Jills

Edit: For people that aren’t aware, this is their rebranding of Cracker Jacks, to try to be inclusive or some shit. I think they did a terrible rebranding of this, for reasons already stated. :(

    And of course the Jill is black, otherwise it’d be problematic for calling a white girl “cracker”.

      That’s the point, yes.

      Their marketing department might have done better by calling their new dark skinned young lady “Caramel Jill”…

        We get it: you’re an asshole. You don’t need to keep trying to convince everyone.

          No, you don’t get it. I was forced by a Flock camera to go into and make a purchase in a CVS, otherwise they were gonna tow our vehicle away.

          So I had no choice but to go in and purchase something, to keep the vehicle from getting towed.

          It wasn’t my vehicle by the way, I was ‘vehicle sitting’ so to speak.

          I never called anyone any sort of slur, but seriously, FUCK FLOCK CAMERAS!!

            You made the choice to park your car in the wrong place. Nobody “forced” you to do anything.
