I've enjoyed photography for years and often I enjoy taking photos of the ugly side of life. Not all the time, I take pretty pictures too, but when I see something neglected, I'm drawn to it. I enjoy heightening the contrast on a photo as well to bring out the "harshness" of the subject, as I've done here. If you live in Silver Spring this might actually be familiar to you. These two barrels have existed at the back of the CVS parking lot off of University Blvd for years. I don't know what's inside them but I do know the sign across the front is thoroughly, completely and absolutely unnecessary.
Click to enlarge and see barrels in all their nauseating glory.

I don't have time to read all the words you wrote, but I just wanted to say that I'd really like to eat those barrels right now.
Mmmm mmmm good! I don't care what the sign says, I think they're just trying to scare me from eating all their scrumptious chocolate!
Hilarious. I've never seen an INEDIBLE sign begore. Is that one of those new signs similar to "CONTENTS OF COFFEE CUP IS HOT!" that exist now b/c of our litiguous society?
That bottle on top looks pretty clean though.

I wouldn't be surprised if that is why it's there. Just in case someone decides to taste the contents, promptly die and then have the family sue for millions.
"Someone should have told Jimmy that toxic waste was inedible!"
