I know a headline like 'Major global blue-chip will say anything to flog tat' is not exactly news, but this left me... almost... speechless:
New Zealand schoolgirls find there's no C in Ribena
Just how low will they stoop?
And heaven forfend one affects the legal process at any stage.
Mail - The schoolgirls who cost Ribena £80k for its vitamin fib
Junkk.com promotes fun, reward-based e-practices, sharing oodles of info in objective, balanced ways. But we do have personal opinions, too! Hence this slightly ‘off of site, top of mind' blog by Junkk Male Peter. Hopefully still more ‘concerned mates’ than 'do this... or else' nannies, with critiques seen as constructive or of a more eyebrow-twitching ‘Oh, really?!' variety. Little that’s green can be viewed only in black and white.

I believe in freedom of speech. But I also don't like bullies on blogs, even verbal ones, as they can drive away those with something valid to say... or offer.
Subjective is fine, but well argued and substantiated is even better. Calm and polite tops. Anything that crosses my personal line will not go up. There may be reasons given, but not guaranteed.
I'm not too keen on 'Anon' as a handle (and the content usually explains why), so if that's what you opt for it may not make it. Sorry.
This reminds me in a rather perverse way of the TV ad back in the 80's when Birds Eye announced - "All our beefburgers now made with 100% beef!". I always wondered just what they might have been putting in their beefburgers before!!
ReplyDeleteYou are quite right though - if there is no VitC in Ribena - just how the hell have they got away with advertising it as a VitC drink for all these years?
