I ate a packet of Starbuck's Sea Salt flavored crisps the other day and I was amazed by the taste. It was salty. Not as in salty salty but salty salty. Like proper salt. It's casually mentioned on the packaging that they do not use donkey tears to salt their crisps. Which got me wondering. Have I unknowingly been eating donkey extract on other crisps? And how do they manage to get so much donkey tears? Do they breed a special type of donkey that cries 24/7? And keep a bucket just underneath their faces to collect fresh tears? Maybe the scientific name for those types of donkeys is "Donkeynus cryarnus" Or do they keep freshly cut onions near those donkeys? Donkey's tears indeed.
