A Cheeto that bears a resemblance to slain gorilla Harambe has sold for nearly $100,000 on eBay.

Bidding on the cheese snack the seller said he found in a bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos began at $11.99 on Jan. 28. It ended early Tuesday morning with a winning bid of $99,900. The listing showed a picture of the Cheeto side-by-side with a gorilla climbing a tree.

Probably found by some half-conscious deadbeat with no job, home all day, eating Cheetos and watching TV.

Winning the bid and getting paid are two different things.....

Let me know when he actually collects the funds....

Even worse: Our tax dollars probably bought the Cheetos.

Why can’t I separate fools from their money as easily doing productive work? Next time I see something that reminds me of lefty causes, I will put it up on e-bay on a lark and let everyone know how it worked out!

This is the sort of click-bait story the desperate MSM loves to run. Who cares if it is real, it’s sensational and that’s all that matters.

No one is going to actually plunk down $100K on a Cheeto. No one. I wouldn’t be totally surprised to learn that Ebay itself plants these items to gin up mention of itself. Today’s MSM, eager as little goldfish for bait, and every bit as bright, are all too willing to bite.

A grilled cheese sandwich that appeared to show the Virgin Mary fetched $28,000.00. Anything’s possible.

Why spend that much when you can buy a Virgin Mary toaster on Amazon for $25.00?

Yeah, but the toaster is only a virgin until you put bread in it.

Goldfish have a longer attention span.

He might leave C.O.D.,
but I suspect he'll come back return to Simba.
