Peanut City

So I made a rare trip down to the vending machine today. It’s a relatively new one; it has probably only been there for a year or so. Some of you may recall the rocky relationship I had with the last vending machine. Anyway, I decided to get a Snickers bar.


When I pulled the bar out of the chute, I noticed that on the back of the package it had the word PEANUTOPOLIS printed in large blue letters just like how SNICKERS is printed on the front. It didn’t strike me as significant – just some sort of advertising gimmick.
When I started eating the candy bar a few minutes later, I noticed some writing on the inside of the package. I pulled the rest of the bar out to read it:

Peanutopolis \pE-nut-ä-pu-lis\ (noun). A state of mind making you feel very strong and powerful, almost mayor-like.

It induced nausea. I can’t even begin to analyze the badness of it because it is so bad. I understand that I am likely missing something because I haven't seen any advertisements that might explain this otherwise inexplicable drivel. But still, does it have to be this bad? I am considering a Snickers boycott. I guess they won’t care much because I have never been a consistent Snickers consumer. But I’ve got to believe this made other people besides me feel sickened, a little icky, and violated.
