Very spiky balls hanging in the mall.

I’ve seen dangerous-looking Christmas decorations at the mall before, but at least those looked like…well, Christmas decorations. This spiked ball looks like something you’d find at the end of a mace, or maybe on the end of a chain for some knight to swing around.

Maybe the order called for a “morning star” and someone got confused?

Insert obligatory Army of Darkness reference here. I wonder if their “always fresh” guarantee applies to boom sticks… (Found in Torrance, California.)

On a vaguely related note, Incredible Cafe is no more. It’s now Four Brothers Burger Grill. I wonder where they came up with that naming scheme.

2026 Update: Sadly, S-Mart eventually closed. It sat vacant for a few years until Grocery Outlet opened in 2025. Fantastic Cafe, however (not to be confused with Incredible Cafe) has expanded.

Seriously? Bacon flavoring syrup?

A bottle of bacon flavored syrup by Torani.

Seriously? Bacon flavoring syrup?

While I was looking for cinnamon, someone else spotted it and said, “Bacon? You might as well have beef!” (He was looking for peppermint.)

Would you buy this? What would you make with it? A bacon latte? A bacon margarita?
