If you thought the fuss over holiday-themed products would cease after the infamous 2015 Starbucks cup debacle, you were sorely mistaken. Social media is buzzing with complaints about Reese’s Christmas tree candies, with some claiming that these treats aren’t properly tree-like. Instead of resembling a classic Christmas tree, many have described them as resembling a mere blob. Yes, there are genuinely people upset over this.
When you unwrap a tasty Reese’s treat that, aside from its shape, delivers everything promised on the packaging, do you complain? Or do you simply enjoy it, savoring the delightful peanut butter-chocolate combination before moving on? Most would choose the latter, but a vocal minority felt compelled to express their discontent over the “blobby” appearance of their holiday candy.
Interestingly, this isn’t a new issue. A quick online search shows that 2015 isn’t the first time Reese’s has been scrutinized for its holiday shapes. Complaints from previous years reveal that this year’s uproar is not unprecedented. However, the volume of complaints appears to have surged this year, possibly as a result of an increase in social media users who seem to have too much time on their hands. While the outcry over Reese’s trees pales in comparison to the Starbucks cup controversy, it reflects a growing trend of social media users expressing outrage over trivial matters.
In today’s digital landscape, it’s all too easy for consumers to voice their grievances, expecting companies to bend over backwards to appease them. In response to the tweets lamenting the shape of their candy, Reese’s issued an apology. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a life so devoid of real problems that you could spend time complaining about the shape of chocolate? As long as the candy isn’t moldy or infested with bugs, how about enjoying it instead of whining? Can we please stop being so petty? Let’s strive to use social media for positive exchanges rather than petty grievances. It’s disheartening that people are genuinely bothered by the shape of a chocolate tree, and it says a lot about our current mindset.
