Phoood: The Junk Food Blog
posted by forksclovetofu 20 years ago
  • Snackspot A Nice Cup Of Tea And A Sit-down other snack blogs - these sit in my favourites and are rarely visited, but do provide occasionally useful info about Rich Tea biscuits and sightings of Caramel Mars Bars
  • We got a free promotional can of C2 with a pizza the other night. It tastes, as I'd kind of predicted, EXACTLY like a half-and-half mixture of Coke and Diet Coke.
  • I really like Phoood, I only wish it'd update a bit more often. Maybe I ought to start eating and reviewing more junk food myself.
  • oh! speaking of junk food, anyone have any suggestions on how to get The Love Of My Life to stop drinking Hawaiian Punch and Hi-C and all those other sugared-water-with-food-coloring drinks? he keeps pointing at the label and saying, "but it says here a full day's supply of vitamin C! it must be good!" christ.
  • Perhaps he wold be interested in trying a new taste sensation - a product that contains over 400% of your recommended daily intake of Vitamin W, yet only half the calories of a cup of Yak lard. What is this wonder drink, you cry? - Why, its Wasp Juice
  • Sorry, SideDish, I suspect your sweetie is hooked on junk food like the bulk of America. It's not like we don't already know this shit, but we just love our junk too much. No one wants to admit it is turning into an epidemic. I was fortunate enough to grow up in a healthy, one-desert-a-day kind of house that absolutely did NOT keep soda pop or other sugary drinks in the house. Now I can't even eat sugar before lunch without feeling sick. I view this as a good thing, and would encourage everyone to take a good hard look at thier eating habits. Not that I want to go all Big Brother about it, but I honestly do believe that kids today are getting stupider due to thier diet and the EVIL shit we put in our water. Hey quidnunc kid, pass me some of that delicious Wasp Juice. It's Wasp-tastic!
  • Maybe try giving him a freshing cockpunch. That's full of Vitamin P!
  • SideDish, I'd buy him a bottle of Flintstones vitamins.
  • *sings* Whether you've been a-fuedin' or having a truce! Or if you find yourself sleepin in a run-down caboose! Here's a drink that will not a violent reaction induce! Its the taste of tomorrow - Wasp Juice! *slugs a quart of wasp juice with Weezel*
  • I don't have much of a taste for sugar-water drinks these days after weaning myself off it with sugar-water-juice cocktails (sold everywhere, watch for scary phrases like "with 10% juice"), then no-sugar-added juice. I fully expect to be nerdily pressing my own juice in 3-5 years. I'm really tired of saying "juice" now. It's starting to look weird. JUICE! As for thinking that stuff is healthy, well... that may take brainwashing.
  • "The taste of tomorrow - Wasp Juice" is something I expect shortly to see on some comely young lovely's TV t-shirt, if not a hologrammatic billboard/ flashing pop-up ad. Too good not to produce, package and promote! May I suggest a mascot or two?
  • ilyadeux. that first link just looks better the longer I more at it. Too long forlorn, this bumbling bee - Wot o wot can be wrong with me? If only I were her honeybee -- But our Queen won't invite me over for tea!
  • I heard her cry out, "Hey! What the deuce! That fellow ran off with my can of Wasp Juice!" She wept and she cried, Then took it out of his hide, I guess that will teach him not to fuck with a moose. Wasp Juice, Wasp Juice, how I love it so. Wasp Juice, Wasp Juice, it costs lots of dough. It's good for the body, And quite fun for the mind, Wasp Juice, Wasp Juice, I want to drink some mo'. *toasts with quidnunc kid, orders another pitcher*
  • I discovered a strange new meme on the "Nice Cup of Tea and a Sit Down" site that I had to sit down and photoshop (badly) a new chapter for... Ladies and Gentlemen, I proudly self-link to Lionel Rich-Tea and His Daughter!
  • Or if you find yourself sleepin in a run-down caboose! Spruce up that caboose, Bruce.
  • wendell, you haven't suffered the attentions of a bad English cook until you've been served boiled vegetable marrow and cold boiled mutton followed by a gooseberry-jam roly-poly with accompanying custard sauce. Understatement:Indescribably dreadful! It has scarred my life!
