I have no idea what I'm looking at.

What's insane? It's two packages of meat.

When the meat goes bad, the sticker changes obstructing the barcode so it can not be sold.

The hour glass sticker shows how much time is left on the sell by date.

The meat on the right is 1/2 way through its “good by” time frame.

Pretty sure the bar code is already obstructed meaning it’s off

Do you see there is a caption which explains it?

I don't see any captions.

Using RIF on mobile.

It's the title of the linked post.

edit: Downvoted but its literally the title of the linked post. That's why everybody knows what it says but the few downvoters who made it this far. I'm guessing you're using RIF which appears to kind of suck when sharing a post compared to other options.

Edit: why the fuck am I being downvoted for explaining this? Jesus. If I learned anything today, it's RIF isn't that good. I hated the interface but after doing the comparison here, its pretty obviously inferior since a subsection of users here cannot even figure out what's going on with this post and are angry about it, because apparently they can't see that it's sharing another post and they're confused by the interface tools which allow you to do that.

"insane" is not a caption that explains anything.

In the title of the linked post, the title is not "insane", it's a description of how it works.

"In Japan, they put a barcode in the meat package that darkens when the meat spoils, reacting to ammonia. When it darkens, the barcode is unreadable."

I'm on RIF as well, there's no linked post or link to anything. Clicking on the pic only brings you the pic. So for us its just a pic of Japanese meat captioned as insane

You're downvoting me for not knowing how to use the app when I bothered to take the time to give you an explanation without any snark? What a nice individual you are.

I went to RIF because I also have it downloaded and to see the linked post in RIF, click at the top and in the box that appears, select "View original at /r/ThatsInsane".

I don't know why people like the RIF app so much, but then I really don't know why people use it and complain to others that they can't view the same stuff. It works fine in the official reddit app.
