or give a celebrity testimonial about?

i'd have to do an infomercial about the quality of HEB brand manchego pasteurized processed cheese food product with latino flavor enhancements.

it rocks.

27. That's good, I guess

Usually I like under-the-radar stuff and if the masses approve of it I generally look on with much skepticism. However, on this all important (I LOVE ketchup) issue the masses are right.

God bless Ronald St. Raygun for trying to make ketchup a veggie.

30. The article is fascinating
Evidently, Heinz Ketchup has precisely the right combination of salt, sweet and whatever else that almost everyone picks it as "BEST" in taste tests. Mustard, on the other hand, is completely different - some people like one kind, some like another.

The article gives you a whole tour of your sense of taste.

31. I don't do Welch's for one reason. John Birch Society...
which was founded by Robert Welch Jr., using profits from the company.

This is the ONLY product I absolutely will not buy because of politics. I'm not knocking you at all. It's just something I can't stomach since I found out about the Welch-Birch connection in a history lecture class as an undergrad.

but lately i have had to go to places like ikea and poverty barn and my mind is trying to comprehend the consumeristic mindset.

anyway, i can't be a consumeristic person, my copy of marcuse's "one dimensional man" is all dog earred, torn, and riddled through with scribbled marginal notes and underlines.

34. ZICAM


This is a gel cold remedy you squirt in the tip of your nose when you start to feel a cold coming on. This stuff is wonderful. I have used it even after feeling symptoms a couple of days, and it wipes the cold out. Very rarely does it not work. It is pricey, but if you get it on sale, or get a coupon, it is good. I figure, it is worth 7.50 to not have to buy cough syrup and decongestant. Plus, one tube will last you nearly a year.

there is a link on the home page with a store locator on it.

I've found it's a little cheaper in the stores than their on-line price of $5 but even that would be worth it.

55. Aquafina FlavorSplash Grape and Citrus flavors
I absolutely LOVE the Grape, and the Citrus is decent too. I don't like to other flavors, though.

The Grape is pretty much all I drink--I don't like plain water, so for me this is the next best thing. Thanks to AquaFina, I drink regular pop maybe once a month, if that.

58. Castrol GTX motor oil
I don't use it in the car I have now because it's expensive and the car leaks like a sieve (easy fix if I ever get my scrawny ass under there and pull the crankshaft pulley, which is no mean feat), but I was driving my Bug one day when the oil pump stopped pumping. Thanks to Castrol GTX's long-lasting high-tensile-strength lubricating film, I was able to get home in the car under its own power. And once I fixed the oil pump and put more Castrol GTX in it, the car started and ran beautifully. The engine was still working beautifully 18 months later when I sold the car, and I still see the car around town.
