**Found this while shopping. Someone didn’t think this through…**
I was casually strolling down the grocery aisle, contemplating whether to buy the extra-large family-sized bag of chips or just stick to my diet. As I turned the corner, I stumbled upon a display of “newly released” products. There it was—a bright, shiny box of cereal that promised “superfood” benefits, complete with a cartoon superhero mascot. It shouted from the shelf, but as I took a closer look, I realized it didn’t just feature a silly character; the cereal was shaped like tiny watermelons, doughnuts, and tacos. I stood there, completely baffled, wondering who actually thought this combination of flavors would be appealing for breakfast.
We’ve all had those moments when grocery shopping takes a strange turn, but this cereal took the cake—figuratively and literally. I could just imagine the marketing meeting where someone thought, “Sure, kids love superheroes, but you know what they really want? A breakfast that looks like a food party on a Saturday night!” I couldn’t help but laugh picturing a kid running into the kitchen, shouting, “I’m ready for some watermelon-flavored tacos!” Meanwhile, their parents are left wondering if they accidentally joined a culinary circus instead of having a normal breakfast. It’s almost as if someone thought, “If we can’t convince them to eat healthy, let’s at least confuse them into eating something… interesting!”

Came across this while shopping; it seems someone didn’t consider the implications.
H
Oh they thought it through.
A
Are we sure op is talking about the obvious blue waffle joke and not the fact that the white writing is unreadable on the baby blue background? because there’s a lot that’s not quite right about this.
T
I thought this was a towel as I didn’t even see the text. It wasn’t till I read some comments I went back and saw it.
I
Same, I thought it was a tea towel
W
Third. Looked like the cheap tea towels at the dollar store. Wouldn’t be surprised to see one like this there.
F
Me too, and I couldn’t figure out why a tea towel had the design of a photograph of a can of something from a grocery store!
E
Actually i think the printer just ran out of red ink, the background would be pinkish and the waffles brown. Edit: actually i think it’s ink fade from light exposure. Packages were probably left in sunny area for extended time.
F
I initially thought it was a misprint issue, but both the bag and the store’s tag say “blue”.
J
Doesnt look like it the syrup seem fine and correct to me
V
Took me longer than I’d like to admit, and some decent zooming in to work out what it was.
S
r/theyknew
I
Seems fine, what does google say about it?
E
“it was, in fact, not fine”
I
LMAO I read that in Morgan Freemans narration voice. Perfect response.
H
You are the best

It’s funny that reddit seems to think the rest of the world is as tuned into stuff like this. In particular memes that have been dead for a while. There is a good amount of the world that doesn’t know what blue waffle is and I could easily see this having been made, approved and etc without anyone in the process knowing.
L
Yup – I spend a lot of time on Reddit and have for a long time and I have no idea what this is as reference to.
B
You should totally look it up. If regret is something you enjoy as a hobby
L
Yeah. I don’t know why, but I think I’ll pass on that one.
F
It’s a severe infection of the vagina. Looks like something out of a horror movie. Do not look it up.
H
Why did I scroll down?
W
If it makes you feel better, the blue waffle thing is really old internet. Like, late 2000s. I knew of it before I was ever on Reddit. Very old dead joke.
V
There’s a guy local that i think has a used car dealership or something, but advertises himself as Lemon Daddy. Cringe by itself, but whenever I see that I just think of the party.
C
It’s also the name of a law firm specializing in lemon law, I think
T
I had to look it up, thanks for explaining!
T
I’m upset about this whole fucking thing because until about 30 seconds ago I had forgotten all about this shit. fuck
A
There’s so many things like this we just bury. lol but they’re in there.
B
So are the jolly ranchers
C
The wild days of the internet. You really never knew what you were clicking. Or downloading. It’s the quickest way I know to learn not to believe titles.
S
Remember the tub woman with orange juice? What was that called again?
S
Tub girl
L
I still have ptsd.
R
Some people just want the world to burn.
U
Yes. This was absolutely intentional. The designer knew the producer of the item was clueless.
D
This is going to be in r/ExplainTheJoke in, like, an hour.
D
What’s the joke?
N
I googled: Blue waffle is a fictional sexually transmitted infection (STI) that is not real and has been debunked by medical professionals. The myth originated from misleading images and claims circulating online, and there is no medical condition that causes the symptoms associated with it.
U
Ohhh, I thought it was because of the shitty use of white text on an almost white background
P
See I assumed this was a printing error (i.e. not enough ink).
H
That’s exactly what this is.
B
Or sun bleached.
H
Same…
E
Well they definitely didn’t think that thru. Terrible design
A
So innocent.
T
This is not the historical internet context of it at all lmao. Did you use the AI answer? Because it’s wrong.
R
Not the Blue Waffle I was thinking of…
O
Ohh the picture is sooo much worse than whatever it is you’re thinking
F
Discribe it for those of us who are morbidly curious but pansies (-me) please?
O
Imagine the nastiest labia/ vagina you can, covered in open herpes sores and slightly hairy. It also looked wet. But not the good kind of wet, wet like it hadn’t been washed in weeks. And I don’t know if it was from the herpes, the lack of hygiene, or the pus or maybe it was a combination, but certain areas of the labia were discolored and slightly blue. Hence the name. It’s one of those unfortunate pictures that you can smell just by looking at it.
F
Jeez ok. Im glad I didn’t look this up
