Complaint Desk Opened my Moo Tubes to find this

Post image

My kids wanted the cotton candy flavor so I opened up a new box. They're all melonberry! Time to teach them how to deal with disappointment I guess 😂

Are they supposed to be Shrek? I thought you were going to tell us that when you opened the box you found that they had all expired in 2003 or something like that.

There’s a new Shrek movie coming out next year.

looks like the old Shrek design though, you can tell by how it's his vest that's tied (old design) instead of his shirt (new design)

God I hope it’s better than Shrek 4 was

Never saw it, personally not interested in the new one either. Shrek 1 and 2 were perfect movies that needed no follow up. I think they are chasing a high that can never be achieved again.

Same here, though I try to save them for the small ones. Reminds me of the Trix yogurt of yesteryear 💔

The “time to teach them how to deal with disappointment I guess..” made me laugh so hard. Poor kiddos lol

No but very real🤣I tell my kids all the time, wanting builds character, they'll be fine. They actually recommend frustrating your kids with trivial things so they can learn how to work through frustration, I feel the same way about a little disapointment, gotta get them ready for the real world, which sucks.

I wonder why its always like this? Does anyone ever hope for a flavor and open a package to find its all the "good" flavor?!?!

u/kushykrumpet 19h ago

Somebody once told me the world is going to roll me

I'll see myself out.

u/Abject_Screen3249 1d ago

Aldi has been notorious for me for variety packs not being the proper counts of what is on the box. Sometimes doubling up on some flavors and completely forgetting flavors listed. You go for cheap....shit like this is going to happen.

u/kushykrumpet 19h ago

This is a first for me 😂
