1. Spray Can Cheese----disgusting but has it's own stain fighting additives so if you make a mess with it you just wash and wear. No more looking for those pesky stains!!!
2. For all those people who lick the filling on Oreo's now you can make it at home. Crisco and sugar who knew? No need to lick a cookie when you can eat a whole bowl full!!!
3. Maybe the instructions are just wrong on the condensed soup. It's really one can of soup per 2 GALLONS of water!!! Feeds and entire neighborhood all at once! I am pretty sure that was the formula they used in school.
4. SPAM (the favorite Hawaiian food). I actually compared SPAM to a Bratwurst and oddly enough Spam was equal to or better than Bratwurst in almost every category. Spam did have more potassium. Seriously I want neither on my pizza but in Hawaii spam has been known to be a topping.
5. Artificial Blueberry bits. Personally these are a favorite of mine. I have always known they were not blueberries. My son and I enjoy these but we do only have them 4 times a year if that. He enjoys them with 'Hungry Jack Syrup' and take a look how it is maple flavored corn syrup. That to me is way more disgusting than fake blueberries.

What a fun list that is!!! Thanks for it!!

Isn't it funny how the tastiest junk "food" isn't even food?

As for the Oreos, I had no idea it was just Crisco and sugar. Now I know why they they turn out so good when you fry them. I won't eat them out of the package.

They left artificial bacon bits off the list. And how about the McDonald's "milk"shake -- which was also lard. I don't think they make it that way any more.

Velveeta? You have to wonder about a cheese that isn't refrigerated in the grocery store....

Some time ago I read somewhere (details hazy) that some food products (including orange juice) may classify sawdust as "natural fiber". I never did check the veracity of this claim, but it does make you wonder about a lot of processed foods.

Sawdust as 'natural fibre'? wouldn't surprise me in the least, seems they'll try anything.

Years ago I was told they put anti-freeze ( you know the stuff that goes in car radiators) into icecream so that it wouldn't get too icey.

Makes you wonder what icky things they don't declare on the food labels these days.
