Trader Joe’s Forced to Issue Recall After Rocks Found in Cookies

NBC News reports that Trader Joe's has recalled two flavors of its cookies because the snacks may contain rocks. The grocery chain was advised by the supplier who makes the cookies that their Trader Joe's Almond Windmill Cookies and its Dark Chocolate Chunk and Almond Cookies have a “rock problem," and the remaining supplies on the shelves and in the warehouses have been destroyed. The supplier did not explain how rocks got into the cookies.

Well, no doubt a lot of folks are now gonna be really pissed at Trader Joe’s for selling cookies with rocks in them. Granite, finding rocks in your cookies is a problem, but as they say, “This too shall pass.” Besides, “Let ye who has the perfect cookie cast the first stone.” Now, the way I figure it, about the only ones who really need to be concerned about folks eating cookies with rocks in them - would be people who live in glass houses, but who am I to judge?

Sadly, this isn’t the first time Trader Joe’s has been in hot water over issues like this. Earlier this year, it was disclosed that their “Marble Cake” was actually made with REAL marbles. Makes you wonder just who the hell was the intended market for these cookies with rocks in them, anyway? The Flintstones? That said, pot smokers will tell you, “Sure, these cookies may have a few rocks in them, but they still taste spectacular when you're ‘stoned.’ Dude, these cookies really ROCK!” Perhaps, but I think even for a stoner, finding rocks in your cookies would be news that would be “a little hard to swallow.”

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War: In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.” You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!” In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence. They don’t teach you that in law school. Now, is it jus...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.” Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know. After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu. Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...

Elon Musk Calls for the Prosecution of Anthony Fauci

Over the weekend, Elon Musk took to his Twitter account to call for the prosecution of infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci, endorsing a convoluted, right-wing conspiracy theory that claims Dr. Fauci financed the COVID-19 pandemic. Musk then proceeded to mock transgender people by adding “My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci.” Gee, the “world’s richest right-wing troll” said what? Now, I realize it's a really low bar, but I think we’ve finally found someone who actually knows less about pronouns - than Herschel Walker. Not to be critical, but a good sign you may have a wee bit too much money on your hands, is when you blow 44 billion dollars, just to call people names. Oh sure, I’m positive Elon Musk, like any right-wing crusader, gets a real kick out of using his Twitter to “Own the Libs.” OK, I get that, but just who does he suppose is actually buying his friggin' cars, anyway? I’m pretty sure it isn’t Trump’s toothless, MAGA half-wits who are fillin...
