Really daniel-i ain't trying to be a smart a$$-i've been reading labels a long time for just the very reason you stated. They have stuff that costs and looks like butter but is much better when left untouched on the grocers shelf. uglystupid2 To dang many imitation this and imitation that. I'm with ya-pay attention to those labels. 2funny If ya ain't sure of what your buying-feel free to use my 100% fail safe method-ask mama-works every time. cooldude RIDE SAFE.

  Might work for tire sealer or maybe to balance the tires. If all else fails , send it to Illinois for filling the potholes.

Funny story Daniel.   cooldude

I try to experiment with food and try different things, maybe healthier things, from time to time.  

And every once in a while, the question is begged............. 'Gak, can this even be classified as food???? '


If that cheese will hold paint, maybe it can be used as bondo (auto body filler).

a long long long time ago i was in the food manufacturing business.  i found out back then that people don't shop for food, they shop for price, and quite frankly, they get what they pay for.  it was hard for us to compete with the megga companies that would put thier products in a 28 oz jar while we sold ours in a 32 oz quart.  if you took the price per ounce, we were cheaper, but the dumb dumb soccer mom would see the other product for 30 cents cheaper, and buy it instead.  

it's the same with gasoline.  if the store across the street is selling fuel for 2 cents cheaper, we'll go there to save 50 cents, but then we'll spend hundreds of dollars gettting our injectors cleaned, or our filters replaced......  why??

I don't think they would...

See, Pierre…the Polydactyl, Maine Coon, Hemingway cat, won't even eat it...and he comes running if you even rustle a cheese package...

That should have been my first clue...I opened the package, and there was no Pierre magically appearing at my feet.

I can answer the gas thing. All the gas in the area comes from the same big tank. After the driver fills the truck they then mite put an additive in the gas. Theres only so many places that refine gas in an area.

My buddy Kent is lactose intolerant... he eats that stuff.. I've eaten it in casserole-like
concoctions at their house, the concoction was good... the stuff in the bag by itself, not so
much  Wink

Carolyn makes fantastic pizzas, on a cast iron pizza pan... she used that stuff (it is good
to try new things, she says) on a recent pizza... gravy gone horribly wrong is a pretty
good description of the consistency of that stuff... bleghh..

IMHO the best way to dispose of this..... stuff.... is to go back to Kroger and return it.

Yeah, it's a hassle, but the only way they're gonna know people are mad about this crap is to start returning it! Might even try writing a letter to 'em, there's gonna be an address on the package somewhere.

Probably won't do any good, but at least ya' can say you tried...

Funny thing is, we DO read labels...just not always on each individual package.

"Mozzarella" cheese...packages of it, several brands. This was racked in the middle of it.

Granted, it does actually say "substitute" on the label, but the package looks just like their brand of the actual food, and the combination of labeling and where they rack the product is, to me, deceptive and designed to fool you into buying this stuff...

And to top it all off...it's not actually "food". Seriously. The best you can say about it is that it's *mostly* digestible.  It should not be on a food aisle.

Sort of like putting "Dawn" in the syrup section. Yeah, you can label it:

"Maple Syrup
substitute"

and use it on pancakes, but it's not a good thing...
