It’s called a loss-leader. They take the loss on the rotisserie chicken to draw in the customers expecting that they will spend more money on other stuff.

moody@lemmings.worldtoEnglish idioms@midwest.social•The word “terrorism” has become so broad and watered down -- maybe we should stop taking the buzz word seriously (like “piracy”)
5·19 小时前That’s straight from the conservative playbook. Anything they’re accused of doing, they turn around and project onto everyone until the word loses all meaning.
Notice how we don’t see the word ‘grooming’ too much in headlines these days? Just two years ago, there were so many credible grooming allegations and accusations against conservatives. Then they started accusing everyone they don’t like (LGBT in particular) of grooming for whatever reason. Now, the term has lost all meaning.
Pumpkins are fruit. They shouldn’t be eligible.

movies@piefed.social•‘Golden’ From ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Lands Grammy Nomination for Song of the Year
5·5 天前Anyone who’s watched the movie has heard Golden about 5 or 6 times, and each of the other ones once or maybe twice. By the time the movie ends, Golden is the one that’s stuck in their heads, and that’s probably the reason they’ve latched on. If they played any other song as many times in the movie, that would be the one that got popular.
Are you suggesting that it was not foolish to pay $13.50 for that sandwich?
If you get a chance, check out his other shops. This guy’s got a stupid amount of talent, and uses it for dumb jokes like this all the time.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Has Diet Coke (in a can) changed in the past few months?
5·8 天前I was actually surprised by how recent the article happened to be.
I was curious and looked it up because I had a similar thought about Pepsi recently, but I figured I don’t drink it often enough that I could trust my palate about the taste being off.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Has Diet Coke (in a can) changed in the past few months?
15·8 天前I found this article by a food scientist basically asking the same question.
The gist of it is that Diet Coke’s recipe has not changed at all. Coke wouldn’t dare take a chance like that again after the disaster that was New Coke. But there are many factors that can affect your perception of flavors, including the type of container, temperature, and other things you eat or drink.
