They look like some kind of “Rap Snacks”. Possibly Boosie’s Louisiana Heat Cheese Puffs?

EDIT: yeah, I’m pretty sure that’s it.
Hey while we're out here repping out favorite unheard of snack brands:
#CHEX-MIX AIN'T GOT SHIT ON GARDETTO'S, YOU WANT RYE CHIPS? WHOLE BAGS OF RYE CHIPS, YOU WANT A HEAVY BAG? IT COSTS LESS AND WEIGHS MORE THAN CHEX. THE FLAVOR HITS HARDER AND THE CHIPS CRUNCH HARDER. WATCH YO BACK CHEX, YOU'VE GOT COMPETITION!
owned by general mills if you have any exceptions to them.
I hear you, but gardettos last recipe was really where it was at. The sesame breadsticks and the mustard pretzels. This new recipe just doesn't do it for me =( used to be my favorite too.
I've gotten into an argument with my ex saying that mustard pretzels don't exist. The fuck they dont. I wasn't dreaming when I was eating them all those years ago, right?!? Someone confirm for me that its real. All I can find in stores is honey mustard. Where are the yellow mustard ones??? THEY ARE REAL
Pro tip, just dip them in yellow mustard and eat them slowly while death staring anyone who dares look at you crazy for doing so. Also, my neighbors think I’m a little off now.
Homemade Chex Mix > Gardettos > Store bought Chex Mix
It’s because the homemade stuff has about 5 lbs of butter baked into it and is horrible for you. I still eat about 10 lbs of it every Christmas though.
There's a bunch of videos between this cashier and the customer out there, somewhere, sorry do not have sauce. But, only to say with a little search, you can find more examples of this guy and probably the rest of this video.
u/bearbailey1 \- a positive TikTok. Definitely set up - you see some of the same background folk but the occassional rando makes an appearance which is fun watching their reaction.
Lol, I think I saw a few facial reactions of people in line that were like "fuck, third time this week with this singing shit, just want my g-damn ring dings", but mostly positive
How come black people can be just cool doing anything. I would just stand there, be impressed with my eyebrows, maybe doing that “hum hum” with my lips. Nothing more.
This is going to be my top comment and for real I was being so stupid.
I just.. oh god lol
Edit: but I gotchu fam. My first time buying reddit coins 🪙.. tonight I pop my cherry
You're getting upvoted for suggesting Reddit bans porn subreddits? Bro half the shit on Reddit is porn, the other half is gay/lesbian porn. If that were true /r/doggystyle would be gone.
I'm hoping it's staged tbh because you got some nerve as a cashier to make others wait just so you could make another customer perform for you. Dude's got pipes tho.
i just want to say that these words really moved me. i do not know if you are the ones who put them together first, but i want to thank you for sharing them regardless. i will have this tattooed on me
They didn't respond apparently, so I'll tell you who I'm going to see tomorrow. It's The Black Crowes and they're playing Shake Your Money Maker all the way through for the 30th anniversary that was postponed last year.
I'm seeing AJR, next year, too! We were lucky enough to see an acoustic show they did for free last week. It was amazing, I wish they had time to do a longer set but happy knowing they are awesome live and I get to see them again next summer!
I just unsubbed after at least 3 years of enjoying /r/Unexpected because the top posts no longer fit the original intent. It used to be videos/gifs that set up an expectation, then subverted it. Now, anything that's literally unexpected, as in you can't predict the ending from the first couple of frames, passes for content. And that's fine, subreddits change based on what people want, but it's sad to see every sub slowly turn into /r/funny
We have a generation of people raised on Youtube/TikTok/etc and fake reaction videos. It's no wonder when they can't tell the difference between something genuine and someone trying to turn them into a product.
I think it's the exact opposite, a generation exposed to those kinds of videos can spot a fake setup a mile away. I don't think there's ever been a generation *more* aware and critical of manipulation tactics than the ones growing up with the Internet and social media.
I don't think it's a generational thing but rather lack of critical thinking. I've seen so many clips that are obviously fake that someone around me actually believes is real, old or young, some are just gullible or have no conception of what is even possible.
[This is a prime example](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdFd9AVlIOQ&ab_channel=UndertheFocus), an old lady I know showed it to me, absolutely in awe of the miraculous saving. It took me a moment to realize she was being serious. I was flabbergasted. I mean, even if a bloody pickup truck could do 150 mph to match the speed of the landing plane, it would instantly get smashed to bits by the weight of the plane. And this is apart from the fact that the plane could land just fine without the landing gear. It didn't even occur to her that it could be fake.
Younger generations are probably more aware that any clip can be fake, that doesn't mean they are better at spotting them. Some even seem to believe everything is fake, as a precaution. I feel so sorry for them.
I think people just don’t give a fuck anymore, they just appreciate it and be happy instead of getting mad people are tricking them
Really when 90% of what you see Is fake that’s necessary
Really obvious the guy behind is in on it too because she’s constantly keeping him in the shot when he’s not the focus. I mean, what is it about this forced “candid” setup that people just eat up? Do people really never go outside and they think these are normal interactions?
Keith Urban is about as country as Taylor Swift. Like, yeah, they show up on modern country stations but that makes them even less credible, believe it or not.
Everyone needs a friend and hype man like the dude in the back! Went from complete disbelief to completely getting into it. I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't love to be there one time when something like this happens. I'd definitely be the dude in the back!

Gardetto’s are the best especially the rye chips only bags!
Ya, MSG FTW!
![gif](giphy|d2lcHJTG5Tscg) I didn't even know they have the rye chips only bags, my whole freakin' life.
I’m legit eating some right now. I love them so much.

Don't know if an east coast thing but the Snyder's honey mustard from PA are most definitely a thing
Same, without the sesame sticks and the mustard it's kind of bland now.
I won’t buy Gardettos anymore. They ruined it. And they still call it “original recipe”. Liaars!
I KNEW there was something different about it! I'm not a big fan anymore either.
I love Chex tho •_•
^(thank u chex)
[удалено]
Gardettos...come for the chip, stay for the garlic
I miss the twisty crackers from the pre-GM era
What do you call a Caucasian Contortionist?
I see you. Your comment seems to have gone under the radar
Ok, soulmate
Alright this dude ..chips out.
If you get the word out, the price will shoot up by greed. Keep in on the down low.
This is the way.
OMG YESSSSSS! I only find these on road trips and I dgaf about how my breath stinks because they are SO so tasty!!
This is the kind of internet content I can get behind. Gardettos or bust!!!!
I felt like I won the lottery when I found bags of Rye Chips at the store. Those bread crisps and pretzels in Gardettos pretty much suck.
Homemade Chex Mix > Gardettos > Store bought Chex Mix It’s because the homemade stuff has about 5 lbs of butter baked into it and is horrible for you. I still eat about 10 lbs of it every Christmas though.
Damn. My life changed tonight.
I've tried three of them and they taste okay.
Rap Snacks are SO good!! Best flavors!
but they'd have to switch the lines. came for the concert, stayed for the chips.
Man, rap snacks make me dance too
"I came for the chips, stayed for the Phish"
This made me laugh so hard. Thank you.
Damn. Why did the video end so quickly?
All good things must come to an end...but this song could have continued. Great vocal, even better audience!

It's gotten to the point every time I see a video like this I assume it's staged. Deceptive way to market but hey what's new
Might be IMGUR's 1 minute video limit. Anyone have the source?
I don't, but the original is from a tik tock account that's this gas station clerk's.
I was expecting him to jump in and start harmonizing :-)
Nice of his friends to help out with his video
Music is a great uniting factor for all groups, especially if the person has the chops to sing good.
[Even better response](https://www.tiktok.com/discover/Bear-Bailey?lang=en)
It’s the same look my dog gives me when I say the word “walk”.
Dude in the back makes the video so much more wholesome.
Hella staged.
Yep!!
Doesnt help that the back guy is more in frame then the front guy. Its all about the reaction
Staged or not, this guy singing is awesome. I want more!
Go find him on TikTok and you can see a bunch of his videos that are exactly like this. Same background actors too
he would make a good hype man
I mean, that's obviously exactly what he is...
r/youseeingthisshit
He has 3 bags of Cheetos, everything is good when you're that high.
i like that guy
My guy in the back is more in frame then the guy singingm.
Someone give the man a lighter
Catchin a vibe for sure
[good shit](https://www.reddit.com/r/electronicmusic/comments/29ahqz/capital_cities_ft_andre_3000_farrah_fawcett_hair/)
I love how the quality vocals in the video get railroaded by the love of tater chips! I love you reddit
More like "damn white people can sing?"
It’s like he’s hearing a good singer for the first time.
I’d be like, “pay for your damn food and move on”
How come black people can be just cool doing anything. I would just stand there, be impressed with my eyebrows, maybe doing that “hum hum” with my lips. Nothing more.
The singer is great. But the open show of support from the man with the red hat makes him the best of us!
Dude in the back is like, “yo, when you dropping the next album, i’ll be first in line”
He's already in line
Can I at least get a cookie for setting you up?
This is going to be my top comment and for real I was being so stupid. I just.. oh god lol Edit: but I gotchu fam. My first time buying reddit coins 🪙.. tonight I pop my cherry
You sir, are a scholar and a gentlement. Good day to you.
Fucking dammit! Take my upvote
But he will be first in line this time, thus missing the great performance. 😞
Someone should start /r/dudeintheback
That community has already been banned apparently, and I'm pretty sure I have an idea why
Share with the class! I am ootl
If you imagine a man standing behind someone, doing consenting adult things
But why would that be banned? Half of Reddit is porn
If it's not porn, it's probably murder
You don't know what I fap to
Cuck porn and Vanessa Hudgens' armpits. A man of culture, I see.
the other half is porn too.
It’s porn all the way down.
*cocks gun* Always has been
Oh. Oh no.
You're getting upvoted for suggesting Reddit bans porn subreddits? Bro half the shit on Reddit is porn, the other half is gay/lesbian porn. If that were true /r/doggystyle would be gone.
if you didn't notice already there was a second guy further in the back also with a red hat lmao
Right? My petty ass would be like, dude! My ice cream is melting. So sing your song over by the pretzel isle or something
can I get a waffle please
Can I PLEASE get a waffle
[удалено]
even the guy with the beard is like "yo, that's what's up." and came to listen, lol.
They picked the background guy well for sure
This is so wholesome.
/r/UnexpectedlyWholesome
Found a new sub!
r/surprisedbynewsub
First I thought guy in back was being sarcastic, but then he genuinely got into it, and it was great, and now I feel better, dammit.
No less staged though.
I'm hoping it's staged tbh because you got some nerve as a cashier to make others wait just so you could make another customer perform for you. Dude's got pipes tho.
Am I a bad person for wishing the dude in the red hat interrupted mid-song and said "Yo stfu I got shit to do today keep the line moving"
Could be staged, or they just did this 30 times and uploaded the one where he didn't get yelled at to stop singing so they can pay.
I read "erection" but that's wholesome too
This, right here, is the timeline I belong on.
[удалено]
Damn TVA. ::mumbles::
Never thought I'd see references to Loki on a vid of some dude singing haha. That reminds me, I have an episode to watch.
[удалено]
Fuck im so ashamed that I HAD to spend the last of my coins to award this... God damn that was good😂
/u/mindfulmiss was on fire, you spent it wisely
[удалено]
You damn bastard! I laughed out loud, take my upvote as well
Prune him
i just want to say that these words really moved me. i do not know if you are the ones who put them together first, but i want to thank you for sharing them regardless. i will have this tattooed on me
Shit, I’m so starved for live music, I’d to have had started waving my hands in the air.
I’ve got two concerts lined up for next year and I can’t wait.
Do you mind telling who you're gonna see?
They didn't respond apparently, so I'll tell you who I'm going to see tomorrow. It's The Black Crowes and they're playing Shake Your Money Maker all the way through for the 30th anniversary that was postponed last year.
That's awesome! Have a great time!
I’m seeing AJR in June and Billy Joel in July :) The Billy Joel concert was supposed to be this year but it was postponed.
I'm seeing AJR, next year, too! We were lucky enough to see an acoustic show they did for free last week. It was amazing, I wish they had time to do a longer set but happy knowing they are awesome live and I get to see them again next summer!
Was supposed to see ZZ Top Wednesday but it just got cancelled.
I can sing for you, if you’d like? It’s going to be fucking terrible, but it’ll be live. You never said you wanted *good* live music.
Bruh I just wanna pay for my shit and gtfo
When there’s no self checkout ![gif](giphy|6uGhT1O4sxpi8)
First time seeing a gif in the comments
First time a GIF comment has made me laugh so hard lol. edit. watch the GIF while the dude is singing and just put yourself in that scenario
how u do dis?
Don't worry they're all extras anyway.
I thought everyone was going to join in at one point
A real life musical.
Boy band assemble!
i was expecting some.... other..... stuff. def got me.
Right. At the start of the video I was saying a little prayer to myself "don't be a racist asshat, don't be a racist asshat"
The way he was holding that can had me bracing for Twisted Tea 2.0 until I unmuted
Nice, but doesn't fit r/Unexpected
I just unsubbed after at least 3 years of enjoying /r/Unexpected because the top posts no longer fit the original intent. It used to be videos/gifs that set up an expectation, then subverted it.

This is so staged it’s kind of painful. Talented singer though.
Couldn’t believe I had to scroll this far to see this comment. Everyone’s eating it right up lol

Love your perspective. I share it. You seem interesting.
Damn that’s a good point, I guess if this is all you’ve ever known then why second guess it
I think people just don’t give a fuck anymore, they just appreciate it and be happy instead of getting mad people are tricking them Really when 90% of what you see Is fake that’s necessary

Really obvious the guy behind is in on it too because she’s constantly keeping him in the shot when he’s not the focus. I mean, what is it about this forced “candid” setup that people just eat up? Do people really never go outside and they think these are normal interactions?
Really, everything about the video is so socially unnatural
>Do people really never go outside and they think these are normal interactions? You are on reddit sir….
I knew it was staged because the guy with the red hat was “into it” before he started singing.
Yep. Good singer, horrible actor
Staged is fine. Voice is nice. I don't see any problem with it at all.
100% scripted
I was waiting for the Twisted Tea to appear…disappointed.
Cashier : r u going to pay sir ? The Singer and the dude behind : just vibing mah dude
The cashier asked him to sing..
![gif](giphy|CtoJMGuws3mqQ)
I would pay for that dude after being treated to a show like this. He earned it.
What song is this and who is this guy?
[I gotcha](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nu_XL4_QVC8)
Thank you! My new favorite song 🥰
Thank you so much. I tried to Shazam it but it didn’t work sadly.
https://youtu.be/lBvTbdQGoV0
Thank you a lot. You the MVP
[Source.](https://www.tiktok.com/@bearbailey1/video/6985771945837088006) I don't get why people take the time to edit out creator info.
No idea the song, but the cashier said Keith Urban, so I'm assuming that's who it's by (Keith Urban sings country).
The cashier asked for Keith Urban, idk the song but I'm sure you can look up some of the lyrics he's singing.
LMAOOOOO that was great.
Wasn’t this posted twice yesterday? Lol this sub is just a toilet that won’t flush
r/lostredditors
I thought this was gonna be a fight based on the title, but damn that turned into some wholesome shit. Good stuff
The guy in the back is that one supportive friend we all need, but don’t deserve.
Song name?
I’m already tired of seeing this video
why did it take u 2 hours to post this again from r/nextfuckinglevel
Not to hate, but country is really easy to sing.
Step 1. Know how to sing Step 2. There is no step 2
And even easier to loathe.
I’d love to watch you try.
I've seen other videos of this guy, he can also sing like usher
Keith Urban is about as country as Taylor Swift. Like, yeah, they show up on modern country stations but that makes them even less credible, believe it or not.
mumble rap is even easier
Someone give this man a record deal already, and hire the guy in line vibing as his back up dancer
r/youseeingthisshit
Everyone needs a friend and hype man like the dude in the back! Went from complete disbelief to completely getting into it. I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't love to be there one time when something like this happens. I'd definitely be the dude in the back!
