On Sunday morning Vice's food site posted this nonsense:
Are two squashed cafeteria rolls and a forlorn clump of grey meatfat biscotti really taking over the world? No, probably not. I don't think they could muster the energy to take over that yard-long ream of butcher paper.

Surprisingly, it didn't go over well. Attempt #3 didn't turn things around:
Realizing they were fighting a losing battle, Vice media's MUNCHIES changed tactics by pretending to move on as though the entire incident hadn't happened. On to the next story.
