Beverages
A man in a convenience store bought a bottle of Coke that tasted funny, upon closer inspection he found a mouse in the bottom of the bottle. He was "permanantly sickened" by the incident. Douching with Coca-Cola will prevent pregnancy. The New Coke fiasco was actually a clever marketing ploy. Coca-Cola became a carbonated drink when a soda jerk accidentally mixed Coca-Cola syrup with soda water. The modern image of Santa Claus in a red-and-white suit is derived from advertising illustrations created for The Coca-Cola Company. A tooth left overnight in a glass of Coca-Cola will dissolve. Snapple supports Operation Rescue, a right-wing organization that tries to shut down women's health clinics, and the Ku Klux Klan, another right-wing group. The ship on the label is a slave-ship. - It didn't help that Rush Limbaugh was a spokesman for the company. Tropical Fantasy, an inexpensive fruit drink that is marketed mainly in inner-city an low-income areas is owned by the Ku Klux Klan and contains a drug that causes sterility. The secret ingredient in Corona is urine. During a regular six-month cleaning of the vats Dr Pepper is mixed in, the skeleton of a missing worker was found in the bottom - his tie still wrapped around a bar of the stirring machine. -From DuckShade When cows are milked, sometimes there is a great deal of blood that comes out along with the milk. This tainted milk is non-salable, except to the makers of pre-packaged chocolate milk, since the cocoa hides the blood. And chocolate milk makers get the milk at quite a bargain. Evian is "naive" spelled backwards, because people who pay 2 bucks for a bottle of water are. Candy Eating Pop Rocks with soda causes your stomach to explode, a famous victim of this fatal combination was Mikey from the Life Cereal commercials. Bubble Yum Bubble gum contains spider eggs. Life Savers were created by a man who's daughter had choked to death on a non-ventalated candy, he made them with an "air-hole" so that wouldn't happen to others. Cabbage Patch Kids Cabbage Patch kids were modeled after mentally defective children to get people used to what children would look like after a nuclear war. Disney Snow White and the Seven Dwarves represent the seven levels of cocaine dependancy. Exxon's Seals The average cost of rehabilitating a seal after the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska was $80,000. At a special ceremony, two of the most expensively saved animals were released back into the wild amid cheers and applause from onlookers. A minute later, in full view, they were both eaten by a killer whale. Fast Food The reason Kentucky Fried Chicken has changed their name to KFC is because they no longer use chickens, they've genetically created a food-animal that has no beak, feet or feathers and is fed through a tube until it reaches the proper size. KFC can no longer advertise chicken because of this, if you'll notice the word chicken has been removed from their menus and advertisements. - Thanks to RJTBird for this one, it's currently being circulated by email. McDonald's uses worm-meat in their burgers to save on costs. -My question is, is it really cheaper to do that? It would take alot of worms to replace a cow. McDonald's also serves kangeroo meat in thier burgers to save on costs. -Again, are kangeroos cheaper than cows? No 2 countries which have McDonald's fast-food chains have ever gone to war. In the UK McDonald's donates a portion of their profits to the Irish terrorist group the IRA, so that their restaurants will not be used in bombing campaigns. -Thanks to MAFAMR McDonald's uses minute traces of chemical substances in their food to make it addictive. -Thanks to MAFAMR McDonalds milkshakes are made with lard. -Thanks to MAFAMR McDonalds milkshakes are made with seaweed. -Thanks to MAFAMR A child complained of being hurt while playing in the "ball pit" at a local McDonald's and pointed out a small red mark on his behind. His mother noticed something like a splinter just under the skin so made an appointment to have it looked at. Within a few hours the child went into a coma and died - the splinter had been the needle from a syringe full of heroin that had been discarded in the pit. -From Chris Mak During the BSE scare McDonald's bought up cow carcasses that were "possibly infected" to use in their burgers. -From Annastasia A girl ate a taco from Taco Bell that contained roach eggs, the eggs got into the lining of her mouth via her salivary glands. Subway's Jarrett died from his rapid weight-loss. Food A finger was found in a jar of Vlassic Pickles. Hostess Twinkies aren't baked, they set like Jell-O. Gerber Baby-Food recently was sued for falsly advertising "all natural ingredients" and lost, now they owe every child born between 1985 & 1997 $500 savings bond. The wax used to line the cups of instant noodles will build up in your internal organs causing serious problems later in life. Household Products Febreze, a product for eliminating pet odors is toxic and kills many animals. -This legend prompted them to add comments from the ASPCA to their ad campaign. Of course it's made by Proctor and Gamble who do indeed kill many animals. Liz Claiborne: Racist On The Oprah Winfrey Show, Liz Claiborne said her clothes weren't made for black women because their hips were too big. Also on Oprah, she admitted she supports the Ku Klux Klan. Made in Usa In the 50's a town in Japan was renamed Usa so that products could be shipped to the US with the stamp MADE IN USA. -There is a city in Japan named Usa, but it's been there for much longer. Marlboro: Racist The Phillip-Morris tobacco company funds the KKK, in the packaging design of Marlboros Cigarretes you can see the 3 K's. -Thanks to Annastasia for this one Moonies Unification Church owns Entenmann's. Unification Church owns Waldenbooks. Pharmaceuticals There was a brand of diet pills that contained the heads of tapeworms, inside people's bodies they'd regrow and the people would immediately begin to lose weight. The only way to get rid of the worms, once infested, is to starve for days then sit a bowl of warm milk in front of you and open your mouth so the hungry worms can smell it and crawl up your throat and out into the milk. Carmex, a cold-sore and chapped-lip salve sold in small jars, is addictive. Waterproof sunscreen can make you go blind. Tampons contain Asbestos to encourage bleeding so women will use more of them. -Actually most do contain rayon and dioxin, two potentially harmful chemicals. Proctor & Gamble The Proctor & Gamble logo, a moon with a face, had 666 hidden backwards in it's beard, also if you connected the stars around him you got more sixes. This was because the big boys at P&G had sold their souls to become so successful. -When this one started getting around, Proctor & Gamble immediately dropped the logo from use. The President of Procter & Gamble appeared on the Sally Jesse Raphael Show and announced that "due to the openness of our society", he was coming out of the closet about his association with the Church of Satan. He stated that a large portion of his profits from Procter & Gamble Products goes to support this satanic church. When asked by Sally Jesse if stating this on TV would hurt his business, he replied, "There are not enough Christians in the United States to make a difference." -Poor bastards, they deserve the negative publicity for all the animal testing they do. Tommy Hilfiger : Racist Tommy Hilfiger revealed in an interview with Oprah Winfrey that he didn't design his clothes for black and asians (or other minority groups). -Sometimes Larry King instead of Oprah. thankyou for taking the time to reading these horrible things. |
All of them aren't really horrible things.... Just peoples opinions would make them bad things.
[EDIT] After re-reading... Gerber Baby-Food recently was sued for falsly advertising "all natural ingredients" and lost, now they owe every child born between 1985 & 1997 $500 savings bond. That's not true I was a Gerber Baby between those years and they never got sued or my parents would know. Note: they are scavangers. :P Douching with Coca-Cola will prevent pregnancy (Are you even aloud to say that? :P) A tooth left overnight in a glass of Coca-Cola will dissolve. I take discomfort in that seeing as how I drink at least two 2 liters of Coca-Cola a day and my teeth are pearly white mmmkay? :D |
I've heard of a lot of these ^^;. I don't beleive a good deal of them...the pop rock for one...either that or I'm dead and don't know it <<
A few could be true, the Santa/Cola thing I believe, because I've read up on that before. |
About 95% of those are severaly fake, sorry to disappoint u, especially that KFC one (like KFC would go to the trouble of creating its own animal and breeding it -do you know how long it would take not only to create an animals, but then to breed it into the millions needed? XD) and the Oprah one about supporting the KKK XD
A couple of the coke ones are true, inc. the tooth dissolving one -coke's also used to clean blood off of highways, but i doubt the pregnany one is true -you would literlly have to shower the fetus with coke for it to die. You missed off the fact that coke initially contained cocaine until it was banned. The tape worm one is true. The others are just people looking at products and inventing their own theories ^^; Try to be more skeptical about things you hear ^^; |
Soooooooooooooooooo, who wants some cola? :P
I believe in some of them, but not all of them o.o |
About the thing when you put a tooth in cola:
Duh, of course its gonna dissolve! no biggy! And about the others... I find them the most ridiculous things I have ever heard. Whoever made them needs to think more carefully. |
The only ones that could be ture is the interview ones and maybe the santa cluse and the tooth one :< Those are just stupid >>
|
These are just old myths that have been around since anyone of us were even born^^; They won't die, but it is kinda fun to hear them...and the people that believe them.
|
haha i was seeing which one people would beleive and which they weren't and to tell you the truth most weren't true.
|
Awesome!I eat spiders!*Tells friends,now they are thinking im hardcore*Sereously,most of them are true.do you know where I could make one of those KFC animals?
|
Quote:
But yeah, most of the other things listed are false, like others have said. |
Eh,if they are true,I wouldnt care anyway.
|
Thats All BS...
Maybe Not The KFC Thing Though... |
Some of those aren't true. I saw them at snopes.com, and they were false. Some weren't, though.
|
since u posted that im afraid to go to taco bell :(
|
I heard these things before...
They're called URBAN LEGENDS (some of them are...majority) XD |
I believe all the McD's ones wholeheartedly.
Why? Don't ask. Something about anti-multinationalization or something. |
I have to say that it's cool, but there are some things there that are proved to be a lie...
I'm not gonna lis them all, tough. From where did you get that? ^^ |
i know that jarid from subway is most likely not dead, because there was a new subway add that aired like a week ago.
|
LOL...I read majority of ths portion elsewhere, and lemme just repeat what the others have clearly implied: Most of it isn't true. But I admit, as I read I was a bit freaked out by the ridiculous things you listed here...Although a few I've spotted are true. Mmm where did you get this? Picked it up from a random person or made it up? Either way, I had an enjoyable time reading it. ^~
|
Yes, they are urban legends. Some of them were proved wrong on the Big Urban Myth Show that used to come on MTV.
|
that pop rock one scares me...
|
yeah I admit I did make some up to try and fool people but some are true.
|
The pop rock one is:FALSE!I have pop rocks and soda all the time!
|
sorry but many of them are fake, such as the kkk owning snapple, about 4 of them are probably true
