questions that you demand freakin answers to

V8, one of my favorite drinks ever. I still always wonder why the hell it claims to be 100% vegetable juice when it's got a huge fuckin pic of a tomato on the label, followed by an assortment of VEGETABLES.

Not just that but, the main base of it is tomato juice.

The confusion about 'fruit' and 'vegetable' arises because of the differences in usage between scientists and cooks. Scientifically speaking, a tomato is definitely a fruit.

That being said, I love me some V8, fruits, vegetables, whatever, it's tasty!

yeah. For sure some soups weren't meant to be served cold. Cold chicken noodle? Fuck that. It's gotta be piping hot.

On the other hand, I got a hold of some cold texas style chili from campbells and had no microwave or fork or spork and ate the shit straight from the can. It went down just fine.

I'm confused by the commercials for v8. they bonk the person on the head and say, "you coulda had a v8" when they pass on vegetables. but I don't understand why. it's not like they chose the vegetables even though they hate them...and "d'oh, coulda had a v8 instead of eating these gross vegetables".

I really can't wrap my brain around it. maybe if the slogan was, "oh, I shoulda had a v8"...it might make sense...but then it still doesn't really.

they should invent something like G8. 8 essential doses of the daily needed greases. 1% of hamburger grease and 99% bacon grease.

Shit that wants you to walk at a 45 degree angle.

that sounds just as bad-only thing i can cope with cold when it was once hot is pizza. and coffee-if i really want it

and the g8 thing-they have a summit don't they-a whole room full of grease and slime

soups in a can. Think about it. A can of soup with a peel off lid that is only good for microwaving. What if you're on and about and have no access to a micro?

I think every portable soup should come with a backup plan such as a little heater pouch.

It's six in the morn and I should be in bed but you brought a good thing to the plate of discussion.

[gbsuey]

just don't put the can in the microwave kids! ever done that?

i did wonder about the time over there-maybe we should see how many days you can stay up-eating cold stuff that should be hot. WAKE UP AND EAT THAT PLATE OF OLD BACON AND EGGS

or something

you could try heating soup under the hand-dryer in a toilet

just don't go pee-pee on the floor(again)duh

V7 is basically V8 without the tomato juice. It's brown, or so I've been told.

Asthetically pleasing?

Ugh. I coudn't drink something that looked like pure diarrhea unless there were no chunks in it (Yoohoo).
Anyway whatever it's made of I need more of it. Pom is a logical alternative.
