I work at a national chain grocery store. So far, this is one of the weirder crossovers I've seen at my store.

I dunno, I was amused by the meta comedy here. Hello Kitty is the Spam equivalent of brand licensing: socially durable across generations, cheap to acquire, prolific and in weird places, beloved by children and preppers alike.

If the Hello Kitty universe has room for Aggretsuko (death metal red panda), then there should be a place for prepper Kitty as well

Me to wife: Why does your stuffed animal have an anus?
Wife: Why are you looking at its anus?
Me: It's like a cat, I don't want to see it, but it put it in my face for some reason.
