Nella cantina della bageleria = in the basement of the bagel store
There is a box in the basement of the bagel store that says OATS. In these huge no-nonsense Arial Black caps that take up most of the side of the box. Let me see if I can demonstrate:
OATS
Why is this box is trying so hard? It may be hard to respect, but you sure have to honor its badassery. You'd better watch out, 'cause when you open this box you're gonna be getting some fucking OATS.
Next to that is a big box of Sweet n' Low packets. The slogan on the box: " ...It's Expected!" With the ellipsis. Like maybe they were trying to think of a compelling reason to buy a big box of Sweet n' Low, except, oh, wait, there isn't one. So they settled instead for telling you that everyone else expects you to buy a big box o' Sweet n' Low. I hope I someday invent something that becomes so thoughtlessly ubiquitous. You can just see the commercial: wife presents houseguests with coffee and Splenda/Equal/Domino, but when she turns her back they smile sadly and shake their heads and exchange knowing glances: she didn't realize that they were expecting a big-ass box of
SWEET AND LOW
