The Last Wish of a One-Star Cracker

At the words Cluck-Cluck Crunch, the old guard clutched his stomach. “Didn't used to taste bad,” he said. “Director Liang invented it for his daughter. OmniTaste bought us, changed the flavoring, and turned it into this ghost.” Chen Nuo went live, calling it an investigation into the former life of the internet's worst cracker. His rescue video had gone viral; within five minutes a million viewers joined. The brand sent a legal warning. He pinned it behind him and labeled it TODAY'S SPECIAL SPONSOR. A viewer remembered the original product. Ten years ago it was called Night-Return Crisps, with chicken soup on the box instead of a grinning cartoon bird.
