Pennsylvania residents are petrified after finding terrifying notes in sealed food packages that reference JFK, terror riots, SS and Lord of the Rings.

The cryptic notes have been discovered in common grocery items, including Lucky Charms, Lindt Chocolate and Chai tea, purchased at multiple stores in Northeastern Pennsylvania and across the state.

Joe Miller, of Sugarloaf Township, couldn’t believe his eyes when he found a folded piece of paper with messages from the secret society in a box of Lucky Charm’s S’mores cereal he bought last week.

‘It just bothers me. The note actually – it’s the note that really bothers me. These notes are in foods like children’s food,” Miller shared WBRE.

He immediately reported the discovery to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and local news media.

More than a dozen people in the area have raised concerns about the notes, with two area congressmen vowing to investigate.

The notes contain a mix of words with references to current events and conspiracy theories.

In an interview with WBRE on Tuesday, Miller, who bought the cereal at a Luzerne County grocery store, said, “I opened the box… I poured it out into my bowl and out came this paper that was all folded just so. ,’

“Oh, I was devastated. I mean, I didn’t even want to eat the cereal, even though I still have the box here.

‘I’m probably not going to eat it. I don’t know what’s in the cereal or if there’s anything in this note.’

Another resident from Montoursville, Pennsylvania, revealed that she had found a similar cryptic note in a sealed box of Chai tea.

‘It’s quite disturbing that this can happen in sealed bags. I find this kind of thing a little nerve-wracking,” Chris said.

Other residents also shared their experiences on social media.

One told WBRE on Facebook: ‘I found one a few months ago and another one last month in Lindt dark chocolate. They were purchased from various retailers. Tried to investigate, but couldn’t figure it out.’

The news station has chosen not to reveal the name of the store where the grains were purchased or the specific contents of the note.

But photos with similar messages have been circulating on social media for months. where multiple users share what they found in food parcels.

One note reads: ‘SECRET societies’ (SS) have ties to terro’m’/mass shootings… are not reported. JFK/Lincoln/Wilson warned about SS. A secret sign/symb. Sys unites SS. Their symbols are connected to Saturn, Lord o/t Rings/Time.’

The Reddit user who shared the photo said: ‘I opened my girlfriend’s cereal and found this super weird message from the Secret Society? It sounds like half nonsense, but still quite strange.’

The post has sparked an overwhelming response, including one person who decided to collect posts showing the cryptic messages in food boxes.

“Ooh, there’s another note!” the person wrote in comments. “There’s a mysterious guy walking around posting these in random places. I think I’m going to start collecting posts that show things like this.”

The social media user who found the note later confirmed that, like Miller and Chris, they also live in Pennsylvania.

Congressman Dan Meuser said, “We’re definitely going to stay on top of this. If it concerns our voters, which it clearly does, then it concerns us too.

“So we’re staying in touch with our contacts at the FBI and the FDA. Anything we can find out that we can legally share, we will do.”

Congressman Matt Cartwright called the note “a weird joke.”

He added that there is no evidence of people becoming ill after eating products where annotations have been found, but he doesn’t want to take any chances.

‘We want to know who is doing this. It’s clearly someone’s idea of ​​a weird joke. But you don’t want it to go further than that. ‘

The Food and Drug Administration said it was aware of the incidents in a statement.

A spokesperson said: ‘The FDA is aware of the situation. The agency evaluates product defects and other complaints it receives.

“Consumers who have recently purchased items that they suspect have been tampered with should not use the product and should return it to the store.”

Joel McHale‘s son jokes, just like his father.

“They’re funny and really sarcastic, so they really made me talk about it with sarcasm,” McHale, 51, said exclusively We weekly of his children while promoting its partnership with Drizly. “My youngest son on my Amazon account had changed my name to ‘You Piece of S–t.’ So all the packages that come in are something like “You Piece of S–t,” and then our address.

The comedian shares two sons – Eddie, 18, and Isaac, 15 – with his wife Sara Williams. McHale joked that the hardest part of fatherhood is “keeping them alive.”

“That is my job as a father of boys. Just don’t drop that thing in the pool,” he told us. “It’s the biggest, most wonderfully challenging, best thing that’s ever happened. And you love them to death.”

McHale said he has to buy “hugs” from his boys. “I love them so much that they still get annoyed,” he added. “They are great.”

When asked to share his best parenting advice, McHale joked that “drink more” would be his first tip.

When asked to share his best parenting advice, McHale joked that “drink more” would be his first tip.

“My dad, his advice to me when I had the first child, was just looking at me and smiling and saying, ‘You’re ready now,’” he recalled. “This will be so heartfelt. Love them and love them and love them. You’re going to screw up, but love them as much as you can. You’re going to screw up, and then you’re probably going to do a lot of things right.

The House of Villains host made it clear that he is definitely not the “cool dad” – even though Eddie and Isaac are often mentioned in McHale’s comedy shows.

“I talk about them in stand-up, and they’re like, ‘That’s fine, you just have to pay us,’” he said. “I’m like, ‘I paid for your life.'”

While McHale’s fatherhood gig certainly keeps him busy, the star still found time to team up with Drizly to help launch the brand’s first-ever gift registry — something McHale “actually” uses.

“Instead of people just guessing what to give you for bottles and drinks, you make a list and then people can go in and say, ‘Oh, they like a 1942 Don Julio. Great, I’ll give them that giving’ ”, he explained to us. “You get what you like. … It takes a lot of guesswork out of buying gifts.”

When it comes to McHale’s alcohol of choice, he’s looking for Dos Equis beer, Bulleit Bourbon, Ketel One, Don Julio 1942 or Johnnie Walker Black this holiday season.

“I also like red and white wine and sparkling wine. I like it all,” he shared. “My list is long.”
