Gillette's toxic masculinity commercial. They lost over 8 billion dollars because they directly attacked their target audience. Good idea

JC Penney tried to eliminate the tons of sales and never-ending discounts on their products by just pricing them at what they would normally be, aiming for a “fair and square” price model. Instead of marking a shirt up to $10 and then having it basically always 40% off, they just priced it at $6, for example. They also ended their prices in solid dollars instead of $0.99 intervals to make it easier to calculate. No coupons, no sales, but the same price. People always complain about how stuff gets marked up just to get put on sale and how cheap of a gimmick it is, right? Well turns out people actually love feeling like they’re getting a deal even if they objectively know it’s just set dressing, and JCP lost millions from the strategy and their sales dropped by around a third.plain-plainsman reply

I'm coming in too late for anyone to ever see this. Shallots are the vegan equivalent of bacon. They make just about everything better.DoggoAlternative reply
MSG m***********s. You ever wonder why restaurant food tastes so good? Why some food is so f****n rich in flavor? Why you just can't stop eating that one kind of chip? It's probably MSG. It's perfectly safe in moderation, naturally occurs in many foods, and adds a delicious flavor to your food.Show All 13 Upvotes

Prep everything before you start cooking. If it's "missing something" but you don't know what, then add a pinch of salt or a splash of acid. Whoever didn't cook, cleans up afterwards.nmathew reply
