The label reads "The Dogs Bollocks Pickled Onions in Malt Vinegar" from The Funky Food Co., featuring a sketch of a dog's face. Behind the jar is a white plate decorated with red and blue brushstrokes and a yellow flower. The background shows a shimmery magenta and silver sequined fabric.

Photo: Bald man with glasses and a purple beard wearing a grey t-shirt, holding up two jars of Waitrose pickled onions - one appears to be pickled onions in balsamic vinegar (left jar with darker contents) and one pickled onions in malt vinegar (right jar with lighter, more traditional-looking onions). Behind him is his familiar home office setup with shelves of collectibles, a bright blue door, and a rubber duck amongst various pop culture memorabilia. His expression suggests he's mid-comparison between these two Waitrose offerings.

24 September 2025 Shallow AF Reviews

Film poster showing a Jenny Ortega on the right looking up in apparent terror at a massive scary animal muzzle looming from the left, complete with yellowed fangs and dark lips and hair. The purple text "DEATH OF A UNICORN" dominates the centre against a backdrop of lush green countryside. Turns out unicorns are rather more frightening than the sparkly ponies we were promised in childhood stories.

Bald man with glasses holding up a large jar of "The Dogs Bollocks" pickled onions in malt vinegar from The Funky Food Co., featuring a distinguished dog illustration on the label. Behind him is his familiar home office setup with collectibles on shelves, a bright blue door, computer monitors displaying what appears to be a fantasy landscape, and a rubber duck amongst the various pop culture memorabilia. His expression suggests he's about to deliver a verdict on this rather boldly-named preserve.

Photo: Two sealed jars of Baxters pickled onions sitting side by side on a wooden surface - one large silverskin onions, one regular silverskin onions - with an aardvark print on turquoise material as backdrop. Both jars display the classic Baxters branding with "Passionate About Good Food Since 1868" on the lids, ready for the tasting that's about to commence.

Screen grab: Bald man with glasses and a purple beard wearing a black Inspiral Carpets t-shirt with green text reading "cool as fuck" and a cow wearing green sunglasses, holding up a jar of balsamic pickled onions towards the camera. Behind him is his familiar home office with shelves of collectibles, a bright blue door, and various pop culture memorabilia. His expression suggests he's about to deliver another informed verdict on the quality of preserved alliums.
