Fifty Unbelievable Food Scams That Will Shock You

Ineffective Advertising

Do you suspect this might be a food scam involving a popcorn brand? If so, you’re not the only one. We had the same thought until we looked into it further. This product isn’t really about selling popcorn, but rather the cardboard container.

The actual product for sale here is the popcorn box itself, and the packet inside is just an extra. The idea is to give you a container you can fill with as much as you’d like.

It’s clear that the marketing team didn’t handle this well. That’s because many people purchased the box thinking it included a large packet of popcorn.
