液體蛋 (Liquid Egg Product)

The perfect name for a sister website

98% Eggs!

One feature of humanity’s improved knowledge of chemistry and biology is the ability to create edible substances which technically count as food, but probably shouldn’t. Juice cocktails are a great example. Containing 5-10% juice, they are mostly sugar water. The best you can say about those things is that they usually add Vitamin C, so you at least you won’t get scurvy.

Yours truly, the Liquid Egg Product, is a substance that sounds worse than it is. It’s basically eggs that have gone through some or all of these processes: separation, pasteurization, mixing, or dehydration and rehydration.

This article gives a bit of information on American “cheese”. The thought that’s kept going through my head is the term “process cheese food”. What a great name for a sister website! And there’s a processed cheese food already (it’s a 1995-style personal page even more insipid than this one).

Hmmm…maybe the time has come for one of those “webrings” (talk about mid-90’s style) for pages with domain names that are artificially created edible substances.

A bit of uncomfortability for the WWE

For those of you unfamiliar, the WWE is that “professional” “wrestling” organization whose popularity is based more personalities and drama than anything. A little while back, they introduced a storyline where headman Vince McMahon “died” in a limo explosion. They even implicated a CNBC sports writer as a “suspect”.

Well, the WWE is probably going have to ditch that storyline. First, former female wrestler Sensational Sherri was found dead at her home.
Even more poignant was the news that current wrestler Chris Benoit and his family were found dead on Sunday. Right now, they’re chalking it up to a murder-suicide.

Some WWE fans thought the McMahon death storyline was tacky in the first place. To continue on with it now would seem untenable. But how many fans would really abandon watching the “sport” if they decided to continue the story?
