Katy Perry turns Dirty 30 a week from today, but her birthday plans are already off to a disappointing start. Today, the pop star has joined the year-long chorus of those upset over Betty Crocker discontinuing their line of Rainbow Chip Frosting.
Perry tweeted this afternoon: “YO @BettyCrocker WHY WOULD U DISCONTINUE RAINBOW CHIP FROSTING? WHAT DA HECK AM I SUPPOSED 2 PUT ON MY FUNFETTI CAKE? HOW CAN I TURN 30 NOW?”
Many feel her pain.
Back in January, a Facebook group titled Bring back Rainbow Chip Frosting was created, and it has nearly 12,000 members. The “outrage” even made the news.
But Betty Crocker is a cruel culinary mistress, and has held firm on preventing us from experiencing the magic of Rainbow Chip Frosting ever again. Its replacement, Rainbow Sprinkle Frosting, is getting crushed by consumer reviews.
Maybe Perry will launch an official protest when she performs during the Super Bowl Halftime Show in February.
YO @BettyCrocker WHY WOULD U DISCONTINUE RAINBOW CHIP FROSTING? WHAT DA HECK AM I SUPPOSED 2 PUT ON MY FUNFETTI CAKE? HOW CAN I TURN 30 NOW?
