I love crisps, but they are one of the highest calorie foods you can eat with around 500+ kcal per 100g.
This is Nintendo supporting unhealthy food again.
The government are obviously doing loads ( but not enough ) to get kids eating more fruit and veg.
There’s this ad over here at the moment which looks a bit far fetched, but as a kid you could sort of get the jist.
Why not, for example if you were a kid and walking round the supermarket with your parent and in the fruit and veg isle and they had something like apples that were labelled ‘Yoshi Apples’ with a cool yoshi on the packaging kids might be “ I want some of them”.
That would be a cool move from Nintendo if it was possible.
Dk bananas etc,etc.
Lol please make Yoshi Apples a thing. I want those so bad now XD
Wtf are crisps?
I demand they put Mouser from SMB2 on their cheddar flavored dips! I fucking love their jalapeno cheddar dip. Just wish it was in a big jar & not just a little can.
Damn it! Now I want some!
Yus! Now I have an excuse to buy chips! :3
I just bought one of these variety bags when I went shopping, and there was no Nintendo characters on it. Darn!
seeing these in stores makes me want some chips now.
