    What? They didn’t slightly miscalculate the minimum, they grossly blasted past it. Yes, your point is that false advertising is a spectrum, and a certain amount is generally expected, but this isn’t in some mushy grey area of it, it’s egregiously over the line. Yeah food doesn’t look like it does on the packages, but if this event were food it would be a grey goop. Frankly I find your attempt at ignoring magnitude lazy, sloppy, and cynical.

      Lol magnitude? Really? These microcapitalists ruined these kids afternoon with their scam, while the ones these scammers emulate poison them with microplastics and Threaten their ONLY habitat, to the scam shareholder’s applause and most of society considering them aspirational figures, buying the scam of “sometimes companies make a mess, it isn’t their problem or responsibility, and we call this competely valid economic event an externality herp derp 🤡.”

      Also Most corporate run INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY EXPERIENCE exhibitions are only one step up from this in terms of marketing vs reality. They calculated the formula of acceptable customer mark dissatisfaction from intentionally dishonest marketing hype correctly.

      So please, do continue telling me more about the magnitude of these microcapitalist’s microscam.

      sits in Wonka meme pose.

        Dude, put this stuff in your comment then. All you mentioned in your comment was that food doesn’t look the way they do in advertisements. I can’t read your mind, I can only read what’s in your comment.

        Come on, they’ve given those kids and their parents an experience they’ll remember for years to come! They’ll be able to talk about it at every social gathering! It’s priceless!
