I don’t understand the thinking behind this. Can’t people just buy them and stick them in the fridge if the prefer?

Or do they think people will buy a pack and scoff the lot? If you buy them cold but they warm up on the way home, then the chocolate will discolour with the temperature variations.

Great Northern beer has “paused” a $200,000 campaign to buy and protect land after the plan upset a vocal portion of its customer base. 4WD enthusiasts had called for a boycott of the company, accusing it of going “woke” by extending the borders of national parks.

They feared state parks would be transformed into national parks, reducing their capacity to carry out activities like shooting, fishing and off-roading. Others were just annoyed at the concept of increasing the size of national parks.

The Great Northern campaign aimed to support non-profit Foundation for National Parks and Wildlife by buying and protecting private land.

In a statement, the head of Great Northern marketing, Zac Gelman, explained the money raised would no longer be used to buy land for protection.

“Great Northern’s Outdoors for a Cause campaign was yesterday paused following feedback from our passionate drinkers. Our donation to the Foundation for National Parks & Wildlife will now not be used to buy land to add to National Parks. Our donation will instead be used for the preservation of endangered species,” he said.

“Whether it’s hiking, fishing, 4-wheel-driving or just relaxing, Great Northern drinkers use and preserve their precious spots in the great outdoors, and we support them.”

…by driving over the top of it in their massive 4-wheel drives, definitely not overcompensating for anything.

Ahh yes, Great Northern - the beer of the troglodyte

Found these in 7-11 last night. Bought a pack of each out of curiosity but they’ll probably live in the cupboard for a bit… :thinking:

Just couldn’t leave the corn chips alone, could we?

In today’s episode of: Who Asked For This? Four’N Twenty has teamed up with corn chip company CC’s to unleash not one but two cursed new flavours.

Doesn’t sound very appealing.

For a potato chip yes, for a corn chip I’m not so sure… most things sucker me in at least once to try eventually - although I don’t always finish it :smile:

Might be an improvement on the current recipe, hasn’t been the same since they moved it out of Dunedin.

Really? Cola ans chocolate. Seriously - stop it.

Apparently Cadbury does put something in their chocolate that people are allergic to. Not allergic to any other brands, just Cadbury.

It’s not horrible :man_shrugging: Not bad at all really. Probably wouldn’t put it on my regular list though

The new Smith’s chips ad is using a tune I haven’t heard in 16 years, the same one from Ten’s 2009 IDs “imagine… seriously”:

And speaking of Pippa Black (Elle Robinson from Neighbours 2005-2009) in that ident, what ever happened to her? Just saw her in an ep of SVU. Last I saw was her reuniting with Margot Robbie and Natalie Blair in the US a few years back, looks like she hasn’t been acting much though, at least not the past decade.

The 95m long M&M’s street poster is located beneath the Swan Street rail bridge in Richmond, in inner Melbourne.

$3.50 at IGA so I bought some last night. 190g so some reverse-shrinkflation.

I think I’d prefer Cola chocolate to the taste of Mead.
