Don’t let things like asteroid probabilities get in the way of a publicity stunt!
Apocalypse Currency
In a dazzling demonstration of a company having its priorities in order, Oreo says it built a concrete vault in Norway to protect its cookies from the apocalypse.
Specifically, CNET reports, the stunt is a response to the Election Day asteroid scheduled to pass near Earth on November 2. Nevermind that the asteroid poses absolutely no danger to anyone on Earth there are cookies to save! And, well, a marketing opportunity to be leveraged.
