Funny $10 Kickstarter for potato salad has raised thousands, but comes with a very important risk…

When Zack Brown opened his Kickstarter for potato salad, he couldn’t have imagined it would get as big as it has.

Zack set a goal of just $10 for his project, which had a simple purpose:

Basically I’m just making potato salad. I haven’t decided what kind yet.

With that insanely simple premise, he quickly raised about $100.

Zack’s bewildering project gained a little more steam four days ago when it was posted to a subreddit dedicated to crappy Kickstarters. From there, the project has spiraled out of control, with Zack now having raised thousands of dollars to make what will have to be an epic potato salad.

The more incentives Zack comes up with, the more people snatch them up.

After hitting his initial $10 goal, Zack added a few stretch goals…
