5% sure isn't 100%

Hello readers! No big intro today; I'm getting right to the serious business that needs to be addressed. This serious business is: 5% fruit juice. This sincerely irritates me. I mean how can a company like tropicana advertise a huge bushel of oranges when in itty bitty lettering in the corner it says "Contains 5% real fruit juice." I guess I don't fully understand that whole "made from concentrate" thing. To me, if it tastes like orange juice, I want it to actually be orange juice.

Let me put it to you this way: When you bite into a nice juicy NY strip steak, you know for a fact that the piece of hearty medium rare flesh has been slaughtered from a once living cow. What the pacaging read like this:

Yeah you would be pissed! What I'm trying to say is that companies can litter their product with all the positive advertisements they want, they can put the best looking pictures on their label. They can even try to make it seem enjoyable by putting a "!" after something that if you really sit back and think about, you would not think was a "!". But when it comes down to it, we skinny people need to stop buying these drinks. Do it for the fat people! Think about it: we*(skinnies) can guzzle down this with no problem. They*(fatties) take 4 sips and they grow some more love handles. So we(again, skinnies) should stop buying the stuff so that the companies will only be able to afford to market 100% fruit juice which may make 'them' become 'us'. So I guess my rant on 5% fruit juice has a double meaning.

In other news... busy weekend for me. I have Friday off which is nice, but Saturday I'm going to guard championships, and Sunday I have Drumline championships. woooo! busy busy.

Goodnight my faithful readers


*Note that if you are a fattie, you can switch "we" and "they"
