Well it turns out that giraffes are brown with white netting.

How long until Tennessee Republicans aim legislation at the giraffe with no spots?

Also the children's book writes itself. Easy $1 billion to the first person that writes "The Giraffe Who Had No Spots."

Maybe they spelt preservatives wrong

Is it the no colors or preservatives bit?

I kinda wonder if it’s the only one omitted because the non-english places also wouldn’t have foods that use artificial colors or preservatives.

virku,

You are correct. Not sure about the reasoning though.

detun3d,

Now googling if english speakers perceive colors and use preservatives differently.

Nouveau_Burnswick,

This is true. Once I moved to the francosphere, I could only perceive colours and preservatives that are present, so there is no reason to tell me about colours and preservatives that are not present.

It’s takes 4-6 months to adjust.

detun3d,

Thank you. As soon as I went to Google I got distracted and ended up wasting my time on something else. Following internetiquette I’ll regard what you wrote as universal fact and won’t look back on the matter.

GenEcon,

At least in germany its prohibited to use them for specific foods. And its not allowed to advertise with things that are required by law. So advertising ‘no colors and preservatives’ wouldn’t be allowed for some products.

BeanCounter, in One of the claims on this Belvita packaging only appears in English

Maybe something gets classified differently? A chemical can be considered perservatives in the EU not in the US?

Anestoh,

But this isn’t multiple packages, it’s just different languages. Certainly a regulation like that would apply to English as well?

odium,

The us version of belvita packaging only has english on it. Maybe spanish. Definitely no swedish.

Tuss,

Probably that.

fmstrat,

Most likely this.

Plot twist: Getting it wrong proves you’re human. Now tell me which pictures have bridges.

rynzcycle, in Adaptation

Is there a phobia for what I'm seeing, because I think I have it.

mustardman,

I think it’s related to trypophobia, which is fear of patterns of holes and bumps. It’s tied into your ability to perceive disease and the disgust is your body’s avoidance mechanism so you don’t go near.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trypophobia

There is a singular image of a plant so that link shouldnt be too triggering as it doesn’t show images of comparable flesh (at least on mobile).

Zhao,

Whoa. That’s wicked cool. Thanks for that.

Lifecoach5000,

Dude for real. This disturbs me for the life of this tree.

Stinkywinks,

Yeah this vieny shit and trypophobia gets me. This is less bad, but once I was spray painting in the cold and it dried wierd and veiny. Grossed me out.

gsfraley,

I know right? I can’t quite put my finger on why, but it gives me “Fault of Amigara” vibes

Catoblepas,

It feels very Southern Reach to me (books, I haven’t seen the movie).

electrogamerman,

Fourpophobia

ef9357, in Nanobot Carry Lazy Sperm to Fertilize Living Eggs

Lazy sperm? Yeah, that sounds great for the next generation.

mrsgreenpotato, in Adaptation

That doesn’t seem to be healthy for the tree at all.
