The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 7 June 2022 23 Comments

Ok, I just want to smell them. I am not planning to pay for the privilege. If you are, the Nails.INC x VELVEETA Pinkies Out Polish Creamy Smooth Cheese Scented Nail Polish Duo ("Make your nails look as smooth as Velveeta feels. We’re teaming up with America’s most-loved creamy, delicious cheese brand to bring you these equally creamy, cheese-scented single nail polishes! Both are formulated in the Nails.INC longwear formula and patented wide hugging brush for flawless application. Now you can be as bold as the cheese you love. That’s La Dolce Velveeta.") is $15 at Nails Inc. (And there are also Nails.INC x VELVEETA Irresistible Nail Stickers for $4.99, although I'm not sure if those are scented or not.)

    Wow those bottles…..kind of horrifying but I can’t look away. And why would you want to smell like Velveeta?

    Haha–reminds me of being in 4th grade and having Spagetti-Os topped with Velveeta for lunch. These would make fabulous stocking stuffers.

      Spaghetti-Os were a treat in my house. I don’t think I ever had them with Velveeta though, so now I feel quite deprived 🙂

        It’s *not* too late, Ms. Robin! Kroger may even have digital coupons. I still want to try Koyel’s guilty pleasure, the Cheetos Mac-n-Cheese. But I did get a kick out of that nail polish though I don’t look good in yellow! 🙂

          I have a feeling it can’t possibly match my reaction as a 10 year old…I bought my son a can of Chef Boyardee ravioli once and was, shall we say, surprised by the taste. He loved it.

            Yup. We loved spaghettios as kids, especially the ones with meatballs. Now I cannot stomach them. And we never had Velveeta — therefore, there was always a thrill when I was served it in someone else’s home.

    Eww. (We were Kraft macaroni and cheese people back in the day. 25 cents a box. I don’t think we could afford Velveeta.)

      Velveeta used to be cheap cheese: now, shockingly, it’s more expensive than actual cheese.

      We LOVED Kraft mac n cheese. My sister’s favorite was to add green food coloring.

    Are we completely sure that this isn’t a belated April Fools thing?

      Yes!! There was also last week a release of Miller Lite scented charcoal briquets, but by the time I saw it, they were sold out.

        Lol too funny. I would think ppl spill beer enough on the BBQ but idk haha. Or at least have enough Miller notes from beer they are drinking whilst bbqing. But honestly Miller Lite doesn’t have much to it at all so lol. Not a fan of the Miller. I got a free one at a gas station giveaway cause I spent over 10 bucks on peanuts or whatever it was. Tried it..then abandoned it never to return

    I’m in Amouage Gold, trying to decide once and for all if I need a bottle. I doubt it would be on regular rotation, but I always want to be able to smell it again…

    Graduation tonight, then just three more days. Break is coming!

    Ok I wouldn’t turn these down if given to me or if found at TJ Maxx or something. Just for the novelty of it. Lol. I think I would prefer Kraft Singles tho idk haha.

    Strangely enough, the shades themselves look appropriate for the summer. I will no longer be surprised by ahem limited edition, food-based scents after eau de pizza hit or whatever it was called…

    Uh uh, no way, nope!

    My Dad and brother used to use Velveeta as bait when they went fishing. They also used salmon eggs, but found that sometimes the fish preferred the processed cheese food.

    There’s no “cheese” around that makes a better grilled cheese then Velvetta! That’s my opinion and I stand by it. Do I want nails that smell like cheese? No I do not. 😳

    Every time I scroll past this post, it makes my stomach unsettled.

    I will admit to loving Velveeta in the day. My mom made homemade mac & cheese with it. But in the last 30 years, Velveeta has just been…ewww.
