Winning the food lottery? That's probably the best feeling in the world. Losing it, however, is more painful than your empty stomach could ever imagine.
We're not just talking about a bag of chips that turns out to be mostly air inside, or an iced coffee that's just a cup of ice with a splash of coffee. These are people who suffered the most devastating of dupes; warped fruit, distorted chocolate bars, and possibly the most heinous of them all, lemon-flavored candy. Whoever let these sad excuses for food leave the factory should be in prison.
If you think we're being dramatic, see how unkind the food lottery has been to a selection of poor souls below, and proceed with caution the next time you play.

My Daughter Just Opened This Can Of Boiled Peanuts
For what do I need boiled peanuts? Really, please help me out, never seen those before...
I will come to the defense of the poor boiled peanut since no one else will. They’re very common in the South. Usually find them being cooked and sold on the side of the road by someone selling watermelons and tomatoes out the back of their truck. To me they taste like black eye peas – if you’re familiar with those. They must be eaten warm, and should NEVER be purchased in a can. This person deserved the cicada/grasshopper.
Load More Replies...I'm more disgusted by boiled peanuts, soaking in some kind of fluid.
It's just water. Peanuts are actually a type of bean that grows underground. Kind of the platypus of the vegetable kingdom.
Load More Replies...im not sure whats worse. a can of boiled peanuts or whatever the f**k that red thing is.
So apparently crickets, just like lobsters, become red when boiled. That's a piece of knowledge I never thought I'd have...
Boiled peanuts are delicious. They are boiled in salty water and sold by the bag piping hot. You peel the shell off and eat the peanut inside. We used to have a peanut farm in South Georgia. ❤
Honestly the product seems more disgusting than the creature inside. WHY???????
The government allows a larger amount of bug parts in canned products than you'd think!!
boiled peanuts are delicious, amazing, wondering...but from a can? not so much.
Boiled peanuts? Lame! Boiled peanuts with a bug? Now you're talking!
A crawfish?! A grasshopper?! A F***ING FISH?!?! (though the crawfish would be tasty, the grasshopper healthy, and the fish suspicious.)
Kind of like when the Pharaoh died and a retinue of his servants, horses and pets were buried along with him along with enough food to get him to the afterlife.
MmmmmM is that a tiny fishy? How the hell do you get a fish into peanuts? Peanuts do not grow in water. Just hope they dont also come in your drinking water!
Boiled peanuts are pretty common in India as well...but they are sold by street vendors fresh...and never in a can...
We eat boiled peanuts in Hawaii, however, they don't come in a can! It's really a different consistency than a regular peanut! They taste good and salty!
eww thats gross i am not talking about the cricket either canned boiled peanuts are disgusting you should only eat fresh ones
I don't know if that's a cricket. I've never seen a red one before. I have, however, seen small crawfish that are red with big black eyes like that though. As for the boiled peanuts, I grew up eating them. It never really occurred to me how weird the idea of boiled peanuts must seem to people outside the South. Maybe it seems as odd as "corn nuts" did to me when I first encountered them in California. Yuck! In Alabama, peanut crops are a hot commodity so I guess some farmers (long ago) found alternate ways of serving them. Thank goodness for people like George Washington Carver! Could you imagine life without delicious peanut butter? If you ever have a chance to try boiled peanuts, give them a chance. They are best served warm ...and fresh, NOT canned. When cooked properly, they have the texture of an olive but are salty/nutty (obviously) and sometimes spicy (if seasoned as such). 😊
I live in Florida and gas stations sell them by the vat. I have never eaten them nor seen anyone buy them. It looks like one big science experiment.
Uh... wtf. That was supposed to say "shudder"

I hate to burst your bubble, but I currently hold the world record for "Most Disappointing Carrot (or other root vegetable)". Just saying ;-)
Found a USED bandaid in a Mother's Brand cookie. It was neatly folded and had blood in it. It was pushed into the cookie.
#73 is not a watermelon, it is a type of cucumber. I know because I planted them this year as a joke.
I hope you get many laughs with your type of cucumber
Load More Replies...1) But maybe it was a very tasty little carrot! 2) Teeny strawberries are usually very sweet. 3) Lemons, well, you probably have exactly enough lemon there for one recipe that calls for lemon in it, so there's that. 4) Well now, that is sad. But! Just think of the tree you could grow from that pit! 5) Perfect for stuffing! 6) Oo...That better be some damn tasty cheese. 7) Sponge Cyclops Squarepants! It's all good, that makes it special. How many other people get to eat a Sponge Cyclopsicle? 8) Hey, if you cut it three ways it's pretty much the same, And the ends you just dip in soup. 9) Well, plenty of recipes call for egg whites only. :) 10) LOL I got nothing. That sucks. 11) Well, cauliflower's expensive in some places these days so you might say you lucked out! 12) Disappointing but the important thing is that it taste good!
I see you shop at Whole Foods........... Were you able to get out of the store for less than $100?
#55 could actually just be Black Current, a popular flavor in England, it is sort of like licorice, but idk maybe they just really did mess up. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I have, upon occasion, hoped for a watermelon like #3. I have a Depression Era recipe that uses ONLY the white part.
That watermelon is perfect for preserve (which is cooked with white part only).
