So, I was eating some scrambled eggs with an English muffin the other day and was turning the packet of Thomas’ English muffins over to see what the nutritional figures were when the tagline caught my eye. It read, “Hearty Nooks, Tasty Crannies.” My mind immediately went downhill. Not that it takes a whole lot, but I was in a particularly slap-happy mood and had to sit down because I was laughing so hard.
So, what unfortunate tag lines have you seen on product packaging lately?
Atomic Fireballs. 'Nough said.
Not so much taglines, but I’ve seen some rather unfortunate product names and signage.
I recently noticed some organic whole grain bread at a local supermarket manufactured by “Doctor Kracker.” The good doctor’s Caucasian, bearded mug adorned a circle in the middle of the two words.
There was a movable type sign outside a local Canadian Tire shortly before Christmas that read, in its entirety:
CRANIUM
REG $30
NOW $10
And I thought, “I could use a new head.” (FWIW, it’s referring to a board game.)
A hand-drawn sign in the window of a place that sold party goods said, also in its entirety, “WE DO HELIUM.”
At a local international supermarket there’s a brand of Indian packaged goods by a company unfortunately called “Gits.” (Only funny if you’re British or are familiar with the Britishism.) I’m sure it means something in India, but I just find it amusing to think of having to say, “A package of Chana Masala made by gits.”
I’ve got pictures of all of 'em, too. 
I’ve posted this before, but it’s still funny.
A former roommate had bought a box of ramen noodles. On the box was the following:
I think I still have that box top somewhere, because it was just too funny. I have yet to figure out how cereals and fishies (dried!) could affect ramen noodles.
There’s a new dog groomer’s just opened in my little town in Japan.
They’ve decided to call it “Doggy Style”.
I was confused at first. Why would “Gifts” be a funny name? Unusual perhaps, but not hysterical.
Then I reread.
Oh.
My contribution: A store selling running shoes and the like, named “The Athete’s Foot”.
Yeah, I wanna buy my footwear at a place named for a skin disease.
(what’s really sad is I’ve seen numerous stores with this sort of name and I don’t think this is a chain!!).
