Soft Drinks for the Undecided:

Taking the surprise economy to another level, Singapore beverage company Out of the Box caters to consumers who respond to "What would you like to drink?" with a non-committal "anything" or "whatever". Two weeks ago, the company launched two complementary brands: Anything and Whatever. Anything is fizzy and comes in six flavours (Cola with Lemon, Apple, Fizz Up, Cloudy Lemon and Root Beer) and Whatever is non-carbonated (Ice Lemon Tea, Peach Tea, Jasmine Green Tea, White Grape Tea, Apple Tea, Chrysanthemum Tea).The surprise part? Consumers don't know which flavour they're getting until they take a sip.

OK. Better be ther Percy!

Myself, Keri, possibly Andy and Par are going to see Knocked up at 9:40, South Edmonton Common.
General invitation for anyone else who would like to partake.

Who want to do something tonight? Specifically a "get your ass out here Percy or feel jealous" event? You know how to reach me.

Ok - sorry about this everyone...but I need to rant...

You know what's wonderful? When your lunch break at work turns into a get yelled at by customers because you're eating at your desk because no one will let you take your break! Grrrr...I'm starting to hate Saturdays.

Ok, I'm done. I feel better now.

If you eat some of that free bread and drink diet coke with sweet and low, you will most likely get the same nutrition found in diet coke plus. :D

score!!!

so, anyone interested in dumpster diving in Riverbend will land themselves some delicious bread products in the COBS dumpster today...

I happened by at closing time, and got a bag of free goodies from the bakery girls before they chucked it all, but seriously, if you want fresh baked bread for free... dumpster!

Chris, I think you missed the part of the Diet Coke Plus that, I would think, would be most interesting to you. They'll be marketing it as "healthy" because "each 8-ounce serving of Diet Coke Plus provides 15% of the daily value for niacin and vitamins B6 and B12, and 10% for zinc and magnesium. "

Actually, the marketing behind all this is fascinating:

They will be promoted as "sparkling beverages." The companies are not calling them soft drinks because people are turning away from sugary sodas, which have been hurt in part by publicity about their link to obesity.

...

While the soda business remains a $68 billion industry in the United States, consumers are increasingly reaching for trendy beverages like fortified water, sparkling juices and bottled green tea. In 2005, the amount of soda sold in the country dropped for the first time in recent history. Even the diet soda business has slowed.

...

Neville Isdell, chief executive at Coca-Cola, is clearly frustrated that his industry was singled out in the obesity debate, and insisted at a recent conference that his diet products should be included in the health and wellness category because, with few or no calories, they are a logical answer to expanding waistlines.

"Diet and light brands are actually health and wellness brands," Isdell said.
