In memory of the Dilberito, a stomach-ruining Dilbert tie-in once called "the blue jeans of food"

Scott Adams will never be content just to be the creator of long-running comic strip Dilbert. No, he must also be a presence in popular culture responsible for ground-breaking missives like “the patriarchy doesn’t exist because I pay for dinner with women”; “Californians tried to kill me for liking Trump”; and, tying it all together, “people who don’t agree with me simply can’t read properly.” Sometimes, these contributions are formalized into stuff like books that turn a wild series of blog posts into a physical volume (with a Trump-haired Dogbert on the cover) or describe how “untrained brains are ruining America” in a process the genius Adams dubs “loserthink.”
None of his official forays into the wider marketplace, though, are quite as mystifying as the short-lived Dilberito, a food designed to fulfill a pre-Soylent vision of replacing normal person food with carefully designed, vitamin-packed meal replacements.
While most of the world was happy to let the Dilberito dissolve into the past, a tweet from @premiumponcho has forced the ill-conceived, cartoon-branded frozen food tube back into modern discourse. Having been made to reckon with the image of Dilbert waving his arms in front of a product description yelling “Introducing the Mexican DILBERITO” at us, we knew this sudden psychic ailment could only be soothed by trying to understand the dimensions of the beast itself.
