Dutch nuns try to get rid of a big surplus of wine, and why try smuggling Fruit Roll-Ups into Israel?

It’s almost summer and as usual, have we got a big surplus of weird retail news for you. Speaking of surplus, if you’re in the market for a new wine, we hear of a few Dutch nuns trying to sell thousands of bottles of whites and rosés.

Meanwhile, if you run into a giant pile of cooked pasta while trekking in the woods, just know you haven’t been transported to Italy…it’s still New Jersey.

• An American couple was busted by Israeli authorities for trying to smuggle 375 pounds of Fruit Roll-Ups into the country.
• Hundreds of pounds of cooked pasta was found mysteriously dumped in the woods in New Jersey.
• A group of Dutch nuns are desperately trying to get rid of over 60,000 bottles of wine.

We are sorry to have gotten your hopes up on, but seriously, we must ask, have you actually ever traveled on Spirit Airlines?—JS
