4Q: Please take another look at rag-o-matic and tell me from whence any cognition of that degree could devolve.
It’s all in the timing.
I don't know whether it is still the case or not, but Sacramento used to be the only brand of tomato juice that didn't use concentrate. All of their product was fresh-packed.
They only ran the canning plant for about three weeks every year, then stored the entire seasonal run.
It was more expensive to do business in this fashion...but it made for a far superior tomato juice.
Of course you know I must destroy you now.
Too late, the wheels of my diabolical plan have already been set into motion.
The stuff is reallly thick and yummy.
Way better than Campbells and the rest.
I’ve seen it behind Bars a lot for Bloody Marys but never thought to try it.
Bad thing is only one Grocery store near my house sells it.
I’m sure he meant O.J. “The Juice” Simpson.
That was always their problem -- thin distribution. And, because of the limitations of their manufacture, they were likely to run out-of-stock before the next season's crop was in.
Does it still say "Made from fresh tomatoes" on the can?

THAT JUICE DONE KILLED MAH PA!
Curses! Foiled again.
So are the jews in NYC.
Best line on this thread.
The wit of this group never ceases to impress me; had a lot of good laughs reading the comments - but always remember the real threat. I think if 4 Americans were in a foxhole about to die, they could joke about it - which is what I suppose makes us endure.
Welllll, looks like times have changed again.
I’m looking at a can right now.
“Tomato Juice from concentrate”
“100% Natural”
Concentrate from water and tomato paste
Salt
and
Ascorbic Acid (And we know where most of that comes from)
Oh well, Still yummy. I think I’ll crack this can open right now!
Oh yea, That pic on top is destined to become a FR classic I believe. :)
Tomatoes are one of God's great gifts to mankind. Be appreciative.
I think it is human nature.
I read a book recently, “Halsey’s Typhoon” about Typhoon Cobra in 1944 that killed nearly 800 sailors and sunk three ships.
One sailor recounted how his ship had sunk in the black night, leaving him to survive in the open ocean in a typhoon without even a life vest.
He found that he could avoid being swamped, crushed and drowned by the gargantuan 80 foot waves by...body surfing down them! Strange but true.
So here he is...in the dark, in the raging ocean, probably ticking off each minute as one more minute survived, then working on the next minute, surfing down the face of these waves in the night.
He came to the realization that others had figured it out as well, and to his amazement, a guy he knew surfed by him and shouted “Woooo hoooo! Ain’t this great?”
Unbelievable. Of course, the guy may have lost his mind, but that wasn’t how it came across.
And I agree about the wit of these people on FR. A VERY talented group.
Aren’t the multiple hands and Indian thing?
