Unjaring Waitrose Pickled Onions

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.

I’ve invested in a proper phone holder, so the production values have now skyrocketed from ‘shambles’ to ‘slightly less of a shambles’. Progress.
