I'm well aware that it's meant as a lighthearted joke to keep people watching, but in this moment? Right now?
Gross.
We have such a horrendous problem with trying to fix every momentary sadness, discomfort, or pain, and to have a potato chip commercial weigh in? 🤢

Girl.
Loyalty is good actually. Being sad is good. Sharing sadness with your community is good.
Trying to convince us otherwise while selling potato chips as Soma is gross.
