Let Them Eat Cake

During my weekly grocery run on Monday, I spied with my little eye "cupcake" mix.

Yes people, we now have cupcake mix on our grocery shelves!

I picked up the box and said "What marketing genius!" I mean, seriously, how many rubes out there are going to buy this?

All these years we've been (gasp!) using regular cake mix and pouring it into cupcake papers (or if you're like me, just buying effing cupcakes from a bakery) and now we have cupcake mix!

I don't know about you, but I think this is a shameful waste of money. I mean, shit, we spend almost $4/gallon of gas to get to the damn store (in my case, I drive 10 miles to get there) and then we get rooked out of even more of our money to buy effing cupcake mix?

I know, this is a stupid thing to bitch about, but it's a pretty asinine product, if you ask me.
