Weird But True

I found the craziest supermarket in the world — it sells tattooed chickens

People sure are clucking about this one.

A wacky Las Vegas “supermarket” has gone viral for its variety of odd merchandise, including seemingly tattooed poultry and special toothpaste purported to be for those who lift weights.

Facundo Hernandez, known on TikTok as @argentiniankingg, shared a video of himself wandering around Omega Mart, located in Sin City’s Area15 complex.

“The weirdest supermarket in the world,” reads the roughly translated Spanish-language caption of the video that, as of Monday, had topped 575,000 views.

In the minutelong clip, viewers can spot what Hernandez calls “tattooed” chicken lying on top of platter garnished with lettuce, as well as a gray-white “snake” that resembles sausage of some kind in the wildly lit store.

Hernandez later shows a sign in the market that says: “Hurry hurry hurry time is unlimited.”

“You have no idea what’s in-store for you!” exclaims another.

The video moves on to a “ridiculous inflatable swan-thing” used as a pool flotation device and priced at a whopping $55.

It is quickly followed by a clip of the TikToker holding up a blue toothpaste geared toward weightlifters, as well as a bottle of Carlos Medina Blue Chile.

Hernandez also reveals that the store is plagued with optical illusions, such as refrigerator doors that actually lead to corridors and other parts of the store.

Several TikTok users went wild over the crazy shop.

“That supermarket alters the laws of physics,” commented one user.

“It’s like a dream. Surreal and meaningless,” said a second person.

One person joked that the mart “looks like an episode of the Simpsons.”

“Very funny supermarket but nobody will buy anything,” joked a fourth person.

Sadly, it was revealed that Omega Mart isn’t actually a real grocery store.

The entire operation is really an interactive art installation created by arts and entertainment company Meow Wolf.

According to the site, the installation is “a potential entryway into new worlds and artful revelations, while breathtaking installations from local and international artists offer enchanting spaces to wander.”

Based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Meow Wolf began its operations in 2008 after a group of artists got together with a shared desire to display their artwork for the public to consume.

The group has art installations in California, Nevada, Texas and Colorado.
