Flavored Fruit Pieces
Thursday, December 23rd, 2004From the Economist.com, an article about cranberries. Apparently they are one of nature’s most fantastic fruits, with a long shelf life, possibly even more nuclear war resistant than a twinkie.
The gist of the story is that they can extract the juice from a cranberry to make cranberry juice, and then put another juice inside of that berry, to create “flavored fruit pieces” that are hardy and have a long shelf life. They can make, for example, blueberry, mango, or orange flavored fruit pieces. So the next time you have a blueberry muffin, there could be a chance you’re just eating a blueberry flavored cranberry.

If you stocked up on cranberries and delicious sweet potatoes, which are nature’s most perfect vegetable, you would be covered for the apocalypse. You would completely outlast those fools eating creamed corn from a can. I just made a delicious fresh cranberry relish that’s going to make my delicious Christmas dinner complete.

Well congratulations on your delicious Christmas dinner. I took made a fantastic dinner, a roast, potatos, rolls, but no yams. I’ve got like 3 pounds of yams sitting on the counter here and for some reason I just haven’t cooked them.
I’ll tell you, I don’t normally go in for Beef Council propaganda, but having a roast for a holiday meal is a lot better than the normal turkey or ham.
