Ads/Marketing Found this on Facebook 😪
Of course the need to include “Limited quantities”… like… just why… who would want this?

I always keep this stuff around for pizza and spaghetti. So I guess I would be their target audience. But I have no desire to walk around carrying it everywhere with me on a key chain 🤣.

I keep actual parm and a bottle of shake can parm at all times, one for actual flavor one for sopping up extra sauce.

This is gross in every way imaginable. Cheddar flavoured parmesan!? I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

Like, seriously, what's the point? Just use cheddar! Kraft even makes a powdered cheddar shaker, why on Earth would anyone want cheddar flavoured parmesan?

And who the hell would love their cheddar flavoured parmesan (which, by the way, is not even real parmesan cheese) (or cheddar) so very much that they need to carry it with them wherever they go?
"Which bag was yours again?"
"Oh, it's the one with the whole-ass jar of cheese(flavoured product) on it!"

If you zoom in that one does say it’s grated cheddar cheese. The others say grated Parmesan cheese with <whatever>

My children will eat just this stuff off of a plate with a wet finger. This kind of access they don’t need.

I know this is anticonsumption, and I agree this is gross as hell, but I did used to have a mini bottle of hot sauce on my keychain, but it was glass, and hot sauce is super acidic, so it didn't go bad. I generally used it on my lunch for the day, rinsed it and refilled it each morning.
This is just plastic garbage with more garbage "food product" inside.

Yah I would actually use a mini hot sauce or soy sauce but this is so unnecessary 😭

I can see my wife getting the original, getting hungry for a snack at work, making a ‘line’ of it on her desk and licking it off like an insane Parmesan cheese addict…
I hate this in every way

I would never be able to take someone seriously who carries around grated parm on a keychain.

…am i wrong or doesn’t this need to be refrigerated after opening???

u/caynharris 1d ago
That was my first thought when I saw this. The full-size bottle definitely says refrigerate. Though my family always kept it in the cabinet; it turned brown and tasted a bit stale, but somehow never made any of us sick.

I have a huge hatred for bag charms. I cannot in a million years think of why I would want something hanging from my bag that’s going to collect dirt and get caught on things and make noise when I walk.

I always used to think I hated parmesan 'cause of this stuff. Turns out I just don't like fiber shavings.

I just bought a bunch of bottles so I can keep salt on me for health reasons. I guess this gives me ideas for the other 11?

Imagine having a medical emergency and the officers/EMTS try to find your ID and find this on you...I'd let them die

Tell us it ain’t real cheese without saying it
