The SpaghettiOs team created a buzz yesterday when they announced that the company would discontinue the iconic SpaghettiOs brand in favor of an ‘edgier’ canned pasta, SpaghettiSquares!
The team shared the news to Campbell World Headquarters announcing the change to employees and posted about it on Facebook and Twitter, much to the chagrin of diehard SpaghettiOs fans. The team also offered samples of the square-shaped pasta to employees at World Headquarters, posting photos of the samples to social media to reinforce the prank.
Of course, SpaghettiSquares turned out to be just an elaborate April Fool’s Day joke, and while SpaghettiSquares were just as delicious as original SpaghettiOs, our beloved O’s are here to stay.
