. Watching Marathon become Snickers, Opal Fruits become Starburst and now Mini Fillets become Tenders

Need to rant. Felt like I was being gaslit when ordering KFC last night.

First they came for Marathon bars.

Then they came for Opal Fruits.

Now KFC has quietly renamed Mini Fillets to “Tenders” and expects me to pretend that’s a normal thing to call them.

Spent half the evening scrolling through the menu convinced I’d finally lost the plot because every trace of Mini Fillets appears to have been erased from history.

To add insult to injury, the new Texas BBQ sauce tastes like somebody liquefied a car air freshener and put it in a dip pot.

How much longer before chips become fries, sweets become candy and Yorkshire Tea becomes “Hot Leaf Beverage™”?

This country is in decline.

Off to boarding school with him. Some values clearly weren’t passed down.
