The latest and dangerous TikTok trend.

People will do anything to make a quick buck. This "condiment" which is being referred to as Pink Sauce is being cooked up somebody's kitchen and sold by someone who does not know what the FDA does. (she thinks they only regulate medicine). It contains perishable ingredients such as milk and is shipped in bags without any cooling material.

  • Is it wrong that this post made me hungry?

  • Mayo and other perishable items are sold on the food aisles and shipped without refrigeration . How is the pink sauce being bottled I suppose would determine whether it is safe

  • True generally for those things, they are packaged sterile but once opened they go bad quickly

  • @pmvines @sunnysideup - I doubt a Tik Toker has sterile factory and the right equipment to bottle it correctly. She is likely mixing it up in her kitchen. She didn't even go through the appropriate FDA approval process. She doesn't even know what the F in FDA stands for.

  • once opened they go bad quickly

    Yup. I went bad straight out of the womb.

  • People are who willingly eating this mystery sauce made in a complete strangers kitchen that has a real risk of botulism, are the same idiots who did the tide pod challenge. 😶

  • @Rezz I hope you never get tired of posting:) One of the needed voices of reason.

  • Stupid people doing stupid things... proof that Darwinism works.

  • the same idiots who did the tide pod challenge. 😶

    Yes…Everyone knows Gain tastes better and you don’t go blind as fast.

  • Darwin awards in real time. Back in the day, we had to wait for people to be idiots.

    PROGRESS!

  • Let natural selection take it's course

  • You can keep the idiots alive and well with medicine but natural selection will always find a way, could you imagine how fun it would be if we just took all the warning labels from everything?

    Chaos.

  • @Rezz - At least with the Tide Pod challenge, they had a better idea what it was they were eating. This thing has a different shade of pink/red every time it is ordered which means there's no consistency.

  • Nature creates strong men.
    Strong men create civilization.
    Civilization creates weak men.
    Weak men destroy civilization.
    Nature destroys weak men.

  • All I will say is that I remember the late 90s/early 2000s craze of green, purple, and blue ketchup.

    There’s gotta be a way to do your pink sauce, lady. This ain’t it.

    The colour of it 😳🤢

  • @DeadGirlWalking - Well, to be fair, Ketchup is a darker shade of it commonly known as red. :)

  • I loved purple ketchup as a kid, had to check amazon real quick but no luck ☹

  • I don't use ketchup at all. There's only one place it belongs and it is the trash.

  • @achetocuddle (. ❛ ᴗ ❛.)

    @Mike403

    I need an update on the festival!
    runs away

  • @Mike403 more ketchup for the rest of us ketchup eaters 🤷🏽‍♂️

  • I did not know about green and purple ketchup until now.

  • No safety seals, even. Paying for the privilege of getting sick (or dying from botulism) seems... counterintuitive. You can do that for free.

    I understand the idea some purchasers have: "It must be safe, because she wouldn't want to kill her customers!" But the reasoning is flawed. You don't have to be malevolent to hurt people—being stupid and/or uninformed will work just fine.

    I think it's jarring to me because of the whole 'bright colours in nature' thing. Like how some poisonous frogs are bright green or yellow to warn predators that they are poisonous.

    Even as a kid I was grossed out by 'unnatural' coloured or flavoured novelty foods.

    How did she get so far with this? This shouts like a lawsuit about to hit her or doesn't it?

    In my country this would be illegal on many different levels! Easily spoiled food, no real labels, processing likey more than +50% bought food (Laws are less strict when you make marmalade from self grown fruits for example), without permission of our version of FDA, wrong shipping method and it's uncertain to me if she even registered her business!

  • @Nexusss: To sue someone you've got to have money, time, and reliable transportation... and even then you're not sure to win the case. Who in the USA has money after a hospital visit?

    She might get sued. I hope she does, and I hope she loses. But a lot of other stupid people will probably get hurt before that happens, if it ever happens. And in the end, isn't profit most important anyway? In America, the economy matters more than human lives.

    Look at all the people Daily Harvest sent to the ER. It takes some yelling to get the FDA to respond, but... that's probably what people will do, rather than launch expensive lawsuits.
