Chicky Pea said...: Whatever the reason I'm sure it's my fault. If you haven't checked out my latest post you may want to. I think you'll really enjoy it.; 3:54 PM
wallycrawler said...: Hey Minx . Ya these were Pillsbury's answer to "Freshie" (remember Freshie) And "Kool-Aid" .
They were pretty popular too . I can remember the ads during Saturday morning cartoon shows and "Lost In Space" . I also remember buying the "Goofy Grape" and it taste'n like shit ! Fuck'n saccharin had a wicked aftertaste !

Hey L>T or C/C now eh !?
Marketing is everything now . It doesn't matter how crappy the product is , or who makes it , it's all about "The Sell" !
You and I get it , but unfortunately most don't .

Hey L>T have'ya ever looked into "Adbusters" before ? I've been a member & supporter for a few years and I think most of what's being said in their mag and advertisements are right on !; 4:02 PM
Ice said...: OMG, Injun Orange.

JC, guess they aren't on the selves anymore.

I remember FRESHIE!; 7:59 PM
F.J. Delgado said...: Those are ridiculous!; 4:03 AM
jungle jane said...: Who is the Cherry dude supposed to be??; 12:38 PM
wallycrawler said...: Ice Princess how ya do'n ?
You really remember Freshie eh ? I thought you were a young thing . That was Canada's answer too Kool-Aid . I think it was like 7cents compared too 10cents for Kool-Aid . There where other drinks too . "Loud Mouth Lime" who looked suspisously Irish & "Rootin-Tootin Raspberry" who kind'a look like a pimply Cowboy . They changed all the names except "Goofy Grape" in 1966 . Why they left that who knows ? The same reason there still is "Aunt Jamima's" pancake mix I guess !?

__________________________________

F.J. that is an understatement . They're a fuck'n insult . "Chinese Cherry " became "Choo-Choo Cherry" after 2years existence on the shelves . "Goofy Grape" stayed "Goofy Grape" for the existence of the product ! Well into the late 70's .
That's not all !
There is a modest Fan Club for "Funny Face Drinks" . Guess what is the most coveted drink packs ? "Loud Mouth Lime" , "Injun Orange" & the most coveted "Chinese Cherry" !
Now that's fucked up !

Open Your Eyes

Video games train the kids for war. Army chic in high-fashion
stores. Law and order's done their job. Prisons filled while
the rich still rob. Assassination politics. Violence rules
within' our nation's midst. Well ignorance is their power tool.
You'll only know what they want you to know. The television
cannot lie. Controlling media with smokescreen eyes. Nuclear
politicians picture show. The acting's lousy but the blind don't
know. They scare us all with threats of war. So we forget
just how bad things are. You taste the fear when you're all
alone. They gonna git'cha when you're on your own. The silence of conspiracy. Slaughtered on the altar of apathy. You gotta take up from your sleep. 'Cause meek inherits earth...six feet deep.
Open your eyes see the lies right in front of ya.
Open your eyes.....

Contrarian

A contrarian is someone who poses as a skeptic, refusing to accept consensus conclusions in science on the ground that there is still some uncertainty.

Quote:"That doesn’t mean that scientific consensus is right in every instance. There are famous examples, in fact, of when it was proved wrong: Galileo comes to mind, as does a lowly patent clerk named Einstein. In the vast majority of modern cases, however, scientific consensus can be expected to hold up under scrutiny precisely because it was reached through a lengthy and rigorous process of professional skepticism and criticism."
