        personally i fucking hate marketing stunts designed to generate headlines for companies that haven’t had any in years. this seems like a really cheap way to say “haha folks sure are struggling, anyway buy our products!”

          Normally I’d agree with you but I think Maxwell House is struggling right alongside them. I drink a shit ton of coffee and forgot they even existed as a brand.

            dude, kraft heinz is not a person, it’s one of the largest companies in the united states. stop anthropomorphizing brands.

            (yes, the company is not doing great, but that’s a risk of a capitalist market & the investors/executives who are beholden to its KPIs are not going hungry)
