What do you say when the satirical magazine, The Onion, has an article that imitates real life?

I read this article in the Onion a few weeks back. It is about a new line of disgusting flavored products from Frito-Lay.

Quote:
“Here,” said Frito-Lay CEO Al Carey as he disgustedly tossed a bag of the company’s new Flat Earth-brand snack crisps onto the lectern during a meeting with shareholders and members of the press. “Here’s some s**t that’s made from beets. I hope you’re all happy now that you have your precious beet chips with the recommended daily serving of fruit, or vegetables, or whatever the hell a ‘beet’ is.”

“Mmm, dehydrated bulb things,” Carey added. “Sounds delicious.”

So today I was looking through the news and found this article about pea flavored soda.

Quote:
After introducing the world to new soda flavors like fish taco and salmon, Seattle specialty beverage maker Jones Soda Co. is offering a new flavor: Green pea.

“Why people buy it is beyond me. I can’t drink a bottle of this stuff,” said Peter van Stolk, chief executive of Jones Soda.

Life imitates art, I guess. The best line from the real article was this comment by the CEO of Jones Soda: “We have the market share leader in turkey-flavored beverages.” And I bet he holds that for a long time!
