Signs with threatening auras

@OutOnTheMoors

*theme music from Jaws plays*

@OutOnTheMoors They’re watching you. They have eyes you know. Many eyes…
@OutOnTheMoors I find the sign reassuring - my supportive potato allies have got my back!

@OutOnTheMoors

They're like "You'd have us believe you're buying cabbage? Listen, it's just you and me, there's no one to impress. We all know why you're here. Now turn around and buy those potatoes."

@OutOnTheMoors in germany you have this experience every time.
@OutOnTheMoors I'm sure you felt their eyes staring at you too.
@OutOnTheMoors maybe they mean like "your new potato-less life begins today"

@heatherhorns_lite @OutOnTheMoors

Nah. The potatoes are TOTALLY on your side, and are supporting you. They're behind you, all the way!

... it's the dang corn, you gotta watch out for...

@OutOnTheMoors Because the potatoes used to be here but they've moved and are now behind you.

And why do supermarkets move products?

In the hope that you will be so discombobulated by the changed location that you don't notice that the price has also gone up.

Guten Tag, allow us to introduce ourselves.

@OutOnTheMoors I'm headcanoning that they're Mister Toffel and Mister Karr.

@OutOnTheMoors Scrolling through the replies I feel like the lone (ex-)English person whose thought's immediately returned to a childhood watching Christmas Panto.
@OutOnTheMoors
What's really threatening is all the plastic surrounding 'fresh' vegetables.
@OutOnTheMoors Pantomime season already
@bananabob At least a few replies are in the intended spirit πŸ˜‚
@OutOnTheMoors but who is behind potatoes? I know there is a secret potato agenda.
@OutOnTheMoors I can’t help but think that somehow Dan Quayle is involved
@OutOnTheMoors Or supportive: Potatoes have your back.

@OutOnTheMoors @shezza_t

Yeah, they SAY that, but when the going gets rough, potatoes are nowhere to be found, scooted, vamooshed.

At least that's what happened last time.
