Uh-huh. I can't look at catsup to this day without "seeing" bug legs
and wings. Bleah. OTOH, it doesn't stop me eating the stuff. <eyeball

I was a chemistry major when it was very rare to find a woman in a
chem class. I even was chastised by a professor for taking up room in
his lab that would have been better suited to a male student. I
haunted that ******* for my entire undergrad career. Took just about
every class he instructed.

You go girl! Hope he learned a lesson... The pendulum has swung,
though. In most of my chemistry classes the females outnumber the
males, and usually their performance is superior to that of the males.

As for bug parts in ketchup, there is "filth" in almost every food.
Inevitable. The proportion is pretty small, though....hopefully. Oh
well. Chitin adds crunch.

Somebody needs to blend their ketchup better if you can see obvious
bug parts. Was this an off-brand ketchup packet from the cafeteria?

i'm happy if the ketchup doesn't acquire any bug parts while it's in my
house.

Didn't see this the first time around. No, I saw the bug parts through
a microscope in college. It wasn't visible to the naked eye.

Nonsense... "off-brand" ketchup is made right along with the national
brand name ketchup, in the same plant, in the same vat... they 'may'
water it down a bit to fill the off name packaging... every food
processor contracts for store/generic products. Only a pinhead like
the sqwartz dwarf thinks someone builds a whole new factory to make
"off-brand" ketchup. All manufacturers do this, whether it's glass
cleaner, laundry soap, clothing, booze, wine, everything that can be
sold under different names is... box wine comes from the same vat as
the $30/bottle wine. People buy with their eyes, even if you showed
many women the expensive Leggs panty hose coming off the line being
packed in a off brand cello packet instead of a fancy schmancy egg
they still won't buy it even at half price, for the exact same reason
many folks won't buy box wine, image and boasting. Box wine packaging
is actually much superior to a bottle, and is certainly kinder to the
environment.

Bullshit.

Bullshit. There's no generic version of Ivory soap. There's no generic
version of Heinz ketchup. There's no generic version of Ophir wines. You've
been caught LYING AGAIN, Pussy!

The fact that YOU can't tell the difference is noted, but no surprise. Most
people can recognize the difference between good-quality name-brand ketchup
(or wine) and generic. Then again, most people subsist on things other than
SPAM and olive loaf.

There most certainly is, and if you were really in the military (NOT!)
you'd know it was GI issue, tons in every head and latrine ... of
course you were 4F... for UGLINESS... and STENCH... why the best you
can do is an ELEPHANT SEAL LOOKING SHMOO! LOL

There's also Ivory liquid soap in generic version, as well as Ivory
Snow in generic version... Dollar stores and of that ilk buy it in
bulk and repackage under their own names, they do that with many
household products, who hasn't seen plastic bags of no name bar soap
at discount stores.

The Baboon Ass Face is not only ugli, it's UNEDUCATED! LOL-LOL

Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. . . .

Bullshit. Did you hear that from the voices in your head? They're lying to
you again, and you've been caught LYING HERE AGAIN. I'm working at a
military base at the exact moment that I write this. I just checked the
brand of soap in the bathroom: It's Softsoap, made by Colgate-Palmolive.
It's not a generic version of Ivory Soap. It's not generic at all. It's not
even made by the same *company* which makes Ivory Soap. You've been CAUGHT
LYING AGAIN, Pussy!

When will you learn that people will catch and challenge your lies, Pussy?
What's wrong with you, that you can't learn that simple, simple lesson?

I'm sure you're pleased to learn that the bathrooms have liquid soap in
them. I know that's your favorite kind of soap because it takes you longer
to pick it up in the shower with your "special Cub Scout friend".
