I, like many other health conscious individuals, am concerned about the ingredients that are found in many of todays common foods. In an attempt to make others aware of my concern, I would like to bring to your attention my observation. How can you expect to find healthful ingredients in any food which has an 'X', or a 'Z' in it? In fact, any food which has one of these letters in its name is most likely harmful to you by virtue of the fact that the name contains a distasteful letter. 'Come on, let's be serious now, can you really expect something like 'Cheeze Wiz' to be good for you? I don't understand the name anyway, 'Cheeze Wiz' (alias 'Cheese Pump' because the stuff is most appropriate for being pumped out of large barrels) implies expedience; what's the hurry? Any food that gets blown out of a metal can by an aerosol propellant is not in the same league as alfalfa sprouts and seaweed. I also don't like foods that you see in plastic bags that have names with words in them like, 'Snax', and 'Stix'. I'm sorry folks, but something is really wrong here. If the manufacturer had intended to make this foods good for you or even just enjoyable, then he wouldn't have put an 'X' in the name. Boy if people can get others to buy food like this, I know I can get people to buy my product. I'm planning to take those styrofoam worm things that come with various packages and coat them with cheese and sell them. I am totally convinces that there are people who will buy these things and eat them. Emhm, yep, I know that people will buy them...

I have, however, managed to add BEER and VODKA to my extensive collection of generic packages. The BEER was the most bizarre, having been mailed to me in MIT's interdepartmental mail.
