FRUIT SOUP





Spoontrivia:

The NASA Mars Rover went to the "red planet" equipped with THIS utensil to sample soil and other substances:

A) FORK
B) KNIFE
C) NAPKIN
D) SPOON


Spoonswer: If you answered A, B, or C, collect your prize by clicking on the small red "X" at the top right-hand corner of your screen. If you answered D, continue reading. (Note, this is the only point in the post where you get to "pick your own ending," and you have just pulled spoonscalibur from the rock as well as slain the dragon).


To spoonerize, even the most advanced technology we send into the icy reaches of space relies on spoons to sample that which is new and exciting. Thus, we should all take a page from the Mars Rover book (not the one where it gets inextricably stuck in the Martian Mud) and try something cool with a spoon - in this case FRUITY and cool.


Just to clarify: Fruit soup is NOT a smoothie. Far from it. It is not served in places where iron is "pumped". It is not served in foam cups by a chain with the word "King" in its name. But it IS usually chilled, always awesome, devilishly delicious, and especially eaten with a spoon.


Fruit soup DOES come in a variety of awesome and tantalizing flavors. Such as "Fresh Summer Berries," "Brandied Peach," "Apple Cider with Cinnamon Dumplings," and "Citrus Gazpacho."

Similarly, fruit soup is refreshing, wholesome, nutritious, and have I mentioned it's your spoon's best friend? Because it is. And it can be yours too. But only if you didnt answer A, B, or C.


In Spoonclusion:

Fruit Soup, Fruit Soup,
You can eat it with a spoon!
If you tried it with a fork
You'd just be a loon.
Make it, try it,
It's pretty darn good.
You'll be the most bumpin' WASP
In da whole fruity hood.


MAXIMUM SPOONAGE 4EVA!
