Now I'm imagining a room full of people swallowing battery after battery to test this product.

Instead, the batteries were probably fed to non-consenting animals.

Wonder how many failures it took for them to get the formula right 😬

Hopefully they performed initial tests in a bowl of acid / other simulated stomach/digestive environment.

Yeah, that's a lot less fun to imagine. :(

Battery eating contest at my place!

Does this mean that they won't have to be packaged in the most infuriating way possible? Current 2032 (and other coin cell) battery packaging is a nightmare to get into and is so fucking wasteful of plastic. Kids just won't stop eating these fucking batteries, so the solution was to fucking entomb them in HIPS or PVC or whatever the fuck.

I agree, it's fucking ridiculous how hard they make it to consume these. You can't fool me with these ridiculous morsels containers. Everyone knows the more delicious something is the harder they make it to get to the prize. It just makes me want to eat the tingly coins even more.

I ordered crab at a cajun restaurant at one point. That was the hardest fight of my life to eat so so little. Wasn't even good enough to justify how fucking hard it is to actually eat the thing in my opinion. Plenty of people love them, but I simply don't see the appeal.

Last October or November I went out at 0430 and crabbed until noon. Spent the rest of the day drinking beer and cooking crabs. Then it came time to eat them. I ate six or seven before I gave up. I also don't see how it's a food people get excited over. I wish there was some way to grind them up and float or spin the shells out. Good meat but so much work!

And make sure the plastic is razor sharp!

I never drew the conclusion that was child safe packaging until now. I just assumed battery packaging was made by dickheads.

They also taste terrible now. They added some special coating. It's all because of lawsuits:

Safer means safe the same way less lethal means safe.

It's got what plants crave

QuinnyCoded@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 108d

how much more do you think these are gonna cost? I imagine they're gonna be a LOT more expensive with how price gouged batteries are already
