I've had this before when there was a really bad flood where I went to uni (And we were stuck on campus w/o without water/electric for a week)
Literally, and I mean LITERALLY tasted like stagnant pond water.
It was actually undrinkable to the point where I would have rather drank the sewage contaminated water from my faucet.

Ralphs' generic labels in the 80's were the best. You can see them in some episodes of Roseanne, too. To this day people still think of minimalist private labels as surreal bare-naked commentaries on consumerism or poverty. In reality the products are almost always equal to or better than the comparable name brands.

It's literally just a block of cheese in the most basic packaging required, with a label identifying it as such.
That's it. Just cheese. The label's even just a monochrome print, presumably that ink was cheap.

>>9048579
In colloquial use, and especially marketing, it refers to elements added to attract interest and persuade the consumer to purchase the product, sometimes by adding irrelevant or less-relevant features but more often with elements that do nothing for the product.
This cheese's label is identifying the cheese as not indulging in such wastefulness - it is just cheese; no effort was spent to make it more appealing beyond the usual appeal of a large block of cheese.

Square packages fit in shipping boxes more efficiently. They're some kind of plastic or wax-lined paper and they don't really leak. I'd imagine the loss from melting caused by a rare refrigeration problem would be mitigated by the thermal mass of them in the shipping boxes, too.

>That's the camera's flash. Are you this young you've never seen a picture from a camera that doesn't removes black eyes?
