Package's Brutal Description Of 'Regular' Spinach Versus Baby Spinach Has Twitter Feeling Attacked

@DearSplenda/Twitter

You ever felt insignificant? Unspecial? Regular degular shmegular?

Us too.

Maybe a little bitter—certainly more than you were as a fresh young sprout? Tougher as well?

Us too.

Giphy

Know who else feels that way sometimes?

Twitter.

And also, apparently, spinach.

Giphy

At least according to the description on one brand's package.

Or maybe the copywriter poured their soul into their work a little too much?

Take a look.

Never thought I would relate to \u201cregular spinach\u201d so muchpic.twitter.com/ZUOjNOuV64

The bitterness that comes with age, loss of the sweet tenderness of youth, somebody you don't even know passive-aggressively attacking you when you're just minding your own business...

It all felt so familiar to Twitter.

It\u2019s me. I\u2019m regular spinachhttps://twitter.com/DearSplenda/status/1521961407058743296\u00a0\u2026

Indeed. I still prefer "like a fine wine" over "like a regular spinach"https://twitter.com/DearSplenda/status/1521961407058743296\u00a0\u2026

But spinach isn't the only one out here people are vibing with.

When I worked at w*ole f**ds I remember reaching for some baby lettuce and a co-worker being like \u201cyeah you don\u2019t want that bitter ass grown up lettuce\u201d

I get it! Growing up I was taught to not buy Chinese broccoli that had flowered because it was too old. Once you've reproduced, your body's not the same.

And of course there was consideration for the person behind the description.

Some copywriter treated themselves to an extra glass of Chardonnay for that one.

It's Monday.

Why not start the week off with some self honesty?

Now go get the week, you regular spinaches.
