By The Wasted Onion: Blaze Announces Smartphone Powered By Potatoes
SILICON VALLEY—Standing before reporters and hailing the new device as “the next big thing in the mobile phone space,” Blaze owner KyleTech announced the company’s debut smartphone powered by potatoes. “After revolutionizing the social media space, I pondered where the flame of social media should go next. Then, in a vision, I realised our next move, smartphones! Not just any smartphone, no, a smartphone powered by the humble potato. Behold, the BlazePhone 1,” said KyleTech at a keynote outside a McDonald’s parking lot surrounded by reporters snapping pictures of the device in his hand while a potato dangled below connected to the device via a charging cable. “Now, I know what many of you will be thinking; why would we develop a smartphone that requires a potato to function? Well, it’s simple really, because it’s just more convenient, no more pesky power bricks, just good ol’ fashioned spuds!” The Blaze owner continued, explaining that by powering the device with potatoes would mean that users could cook a delicious jacket potato with whipped feta and sumac after they were finished using the device for the day. At press time, the BlazePhone had been added to the Blaze eStore, but according to reports the storefront had gone offline with a message claiming that the site was down due to web development platform Wix experiencing server issues due to a lack of lemons needed to power the company’s data centres.

By The Wasted Onion: Remembering Pope Francis: The First Pope To Like Pineapple On Pizza
VATICAN CITY—Pope Francis’s papacy brought many achievements and firsts in the Catholic Church, such as being the first Latin American pontiff and first non-European to hold the papacy since 741, but many will remember him as the first Pope to like pineapple on pizza. “I fondly remember how during my first meeting with him, he brought out his Popephone and ordered a pizza with extra pineapple,” said cardinal Giuseppe Marino in an interview with The Wasted Onion. “It was one of his many loves during his life, he would tell me stories about how his parents would take him to their local Pizza Hut for his birthdays and treat him to a Hawaiian Sizzler.” Cardinal Marino went on to speak about how the first Argentinian pope would regularly order the ham and pineapple pizza with a side of potato wedges, cookies, and a bottle of Coca-Cola Zero Sugar from the local Domino’s. At press time, reports suggested JD Vance, who was one of the last people to meet the late pope, had brought a cheeseburger pizza from Papa Johns as a gift, which Pope Francis reportedly rejected, saying “this is the greatest sin I’ve ever had the displeasure of witnessing in my 12 years of papacy,” before Vance was escorted out.
