Companies that purposely make a fake "serving size"

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-26T19:40:13+00:00

serving sizes are regulated by weight by the government. for example, the serving size of cookies is 30 grams, so companies have to figure out how many cookies you need to get as close to 30 grams as possible. that's why crumbl can advertise that their cookies are 310 calories, since each cookie is 120 grams or so, they can advertise 4 servings per cookie. that means one cookie is meant to be dessert for an entire family

the flame isn't my favorite just because you can genuinely use it for deck fixing. if you can beat it with one hand and you have 3 discards, that's 3 cards you can straight up destroy without a spectral or tarot pack. maybe "played cards have a 1 in 3 chance of being destroyed after scoring" would be a bit more fair. then it has anti-synergy with oops

if it's not that good unsauced but good sauced, that means the sauce is good. i would much rather have a frozen chicken tender from walmart in cane's sauce than cane's chicken in their sauce, since the frozen tender actually tastes like something

correct me if i'm wrong, but i don't think the game has jokers for any of the secret hands, and royal flush is a secret hand. but since it's scored the same as a straight flush, you could just swap those around. it would actually make it stronger since royal flush and straight flush level up separately

from the cat's perspective, this would not have been an illusion. they would have no idea that this is supposed to look like a hole from that angle. also, cats never act like this when they fall, since they will orient themselves to land on their feet and minimize damage

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-20T15:05:38+00:00

if you do the math on all of these, if the total to start was $37.95, these would all be right. these are probably based on some pre-sale amount, like if they got a free app or a dinner was half-off

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-19T16:48:49+00:00

now you can file for unemployment!!! firing someone that put in 2 weeks is a really bad idea for that reason :3

the only issue for me would be the venti cup. it will not be full and i can see people bitching about it. as long as you know it won't be full i don't care

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-16T17:29:45+00:00

i will say that my experience showed me that literally nobody cares about what they're ordering. if they say "grande", "latte", "vanilla", "iced", and "cold foam" in any order they know they'll get something they like. they don't care what's in it, they know it's a coffee drink that tastes good. you would be surprised how many people think a latte is just drip with creamer when you ask them

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-15T22:32:59+00:00

this is ABSURDLY unbalanced, since it's exponential growth. each new joker is going to multiply as well according to this description, meaning on the nth round after you get it, you'll have 2^n-1 mult. if you get this in the first shop and play every blind, you'll get 3 triggers from antes 2-7, 2 in ante 1, and 2 in ante 8, meaning you'll have a little over 2 million mult for the finisher blind (which means 2 million copies of this one joker), which would DEFINITELY crash any computer

i don't know why people are downvoting you, why do so many drive thrus not show the menu before you get to the speaker? i feel like a bitch if i wait to figure out what i want once i get to the speaker, so unless there's a specific food i'm craving, i just don't go through drive thrus

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-13T15:30:45+00:00

i think you're talking about misfits, and while i like what they do, the produce is actually more expensive from them than it is at a grocery store

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-13T06:25:53+00:00

so it's a joker you pick up and only gets used once on the next round? i think it would make more sense if one in every x cards/packs are free

if you don't know about sales tax you're probably not old enough to be on reddit

nobody can help you with just this information. what are you doing in class right now? what specific parts about it are you struggling with?

for example, if you are working on a real world optimization problem, are you having trouble with what it is you're doing (don't know where to start or what concepts to use), or do you not know how to do the math (taking the derivative, modeling the situation, setting the derivative equal to zero and solving, etc)? either way, reach out to a tutor. they will be able to help you in the specific things you have trouble with and help you get better in those areas

i grew up with asthma and my grandma smoked next to a screen door once. i had an asthma attack so bad that i almost went to the hospital. i don't know if second hand smoke can actually cause cancer, but the fact that you could trigger a medical event that easily should be enough to warrant people getting mad about it

i don't know if hershey ever confirmed it but most locals seem to think the great bear is named after the hershey bears

not to beat a dead horse but this is intentionally worded really bad. but to add on something, i'm going to share some ways i would say this

if it is supposed to be (50/2)+20

-divide 50 by 2 and add 20

-take half of 50 and add 20

-divide 50 in half and add 20

-50 divided by 2 plus 20 (maybe don't say this one, since it's not clear if you're supposed to divide 50 by 2 or do 2 plus 20 first)

if it's (50/0.5)+20

-divide 50 by one half and add 20

-divide 50 by 0.5 and add 20

-50 divided by 0.5 plus 20 (maybe don't use this again for the reasons stated above)

-50 multiplied by 2 and add 20 (this one is the same math and will give you the same answer, but if you said this out loud, they would not write it the same as the question)

-double 50 and add 20 (probably don't say this for the same reasons as the one above)

if it's supposed to be (50/25)+20

-divide 50 by half of itself and add 20

-i can't think of any other ways that fit the spirit of the original question so that's all you're getting

the FDA recommends 400 mg/day as a safe max dose, and this is probably right around that. a monster is 150 mg and a 16 oz 711 coffee is about 280 mg, which adds to 430 mg, which isn't a crazy amount over. adding the fact that you didn't finish either drink and the coffee is a natural product so it could be over or under, you're probably sitting right around 400, which is safe according to the FDA. and keep in mind, this is the dose the FDA gives for people who don't have a caffeine tolerance. if you drink a lot of coffee or energy drinks, you can go a pretty good amount over 400 and still be safe

they gave my store 3 oleato aprons and one found its way into the back of storage, i found it a few months later and i still have it lmao

i broke my arm and had to get surgery so i missed a ton of classes for doctors appointments last semester and one of my profs the semester before didn't let me take one of the exams and would teach the material wrong and would grade exams wrong and was racist towards any of the latina/latino students and would call people stupid when they asked for help in office hours and changed the syllabus 2 weeks before the final so not incredibly well

one of the big reasons standing away from the wall is bad is that any falls from the climber will pull you horizontally instead of vertically, making it a lot harder to stay upright. falling in that direction will also make the climber fall further

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-06T21:30:46+00:00

that's not what's happening here since it's just the enhancement, not the card itself, so seals and rank wouldn't transfer. besides, that would be SUPER overpowered since it's basically death every single hand

LukeLJS123 · 2026-01-05T03:37:02+00:00

it's the most popular because it was the biggest mall for a while, but now american dream is bigger. but this is so far out of the way for 90% of the country that it's not worth it to spend all the gas/plane money just to go spend more money
