Was a Yakima Grocery Store Gaslighting Their Customers?

You know when you're craving something, nothing else will do.

You finally give in to the cravings, hope in the car, and take off to the store to indulge.

You grab your basket, and you head in the direction of the department containing the treat that has made you salivate since early this morning!

You see the sign, and the anticipation grows! "Fresh Sushi" is going to be yours very, very soon.

You get up to the refrigerated container and think, "What The [expletive deleted]!"

That's not what happened to my buddy Brandon Huck when he saw the Sushi section of our local Fred Meyer containing not sushi but cupcakes.

He thought that it was comical and snapped the above picture.

For me, this is the best type of deception; cupcakes are half of what I'm made up of, 'Stud Muffin,' with more emphasis on the muffin!

But can you imagine the disappointment of the person craving sushi, only to find cake?

That'd be like getting served divorce papers from your loved one on your wedding anniversary.

Or running downstairs on Christmas morning, only to remember you're Jewish (credit and thanks to the great Dave Attell for that joke).

Luckily for Brandon (and anyone else at the time), the sushi was nearby.

But what if that case did contain sushi earlier in the day?

"Does this chocolate cake taste fishy?" That would be the worst, in my opinion.
