New Business Idea: Cramberry Juice

Vadim — Sat, 17 Jul 2010 18:13:24 +0000

If I was making cranberry juice, I’d call it Cramberry Juice. It would sell in a round glass bottle which would be crammed with real fresh cranberries (not made from concentrate). It would be organic and contain no sugar or high fructose corn syrup. Cranberries would be sourced from small local farmers whose profiles would appear on the label along with terms like “the real 100% juice” and “a glass a day to better urinary health”. The factory would house a cranberry bush garden where visitors could come in and pick their own cranberries to make fresh squeezed juice on the spot. Our website would be cramberry-juice.com (this domain is available, for now).

If you don’t know who James Randi is, just Google his name. In brief, he is “a magician and escape artist, but today he is best known as the world’s most tireless investigator and demystifier of paranormal and pseudoscientific claims.”

I got a look at the drives and I am very, very happy with them.
