Blood.....

Billgar · Posted: Sun Jul 20, 2008 4:50 pm Post subject: Blood.....

So there is this new drink out called TruBlood.
Some energy drink?
A hard liquor?
A beer?
Nononono my friends...its simply synthetically manufactured synthetic blood.
While the cellular content varies from that of actual blood it supposedly has the same taste and you can buy it in different types, a , b, ab, and o, that have different attributes......
WHY?

Just watched the ad and took the test to see what I would have. Let me start off by saying eww, and that is extremely messed up. Why couldn't they just find a way to get something like that that could actually be used for transfusions. Also, who would want the taste of rusty iron. That is just messed up on so many levels.

Aw man I just thought of countless plans for pranks with that stuff. Nothing like running down town with a dull knife and my clothes soaked with the stuff, but imagine the look on the faces of those missionaries knocking on doors, when their drinks taste pretty salty for juice.

All you need now is a dark room where people walk into your house, a black and red robe, a ton of candles (lit), and a chalk pentagram on the floor along with that stuff. Certainly scare more than a few missionaries.

The thing is this blood looks really real. It is very thick and supposed to taste like real blood. There is not to much difference between real blood- supposedly. If that is the case it may not be the best idea to pull pranks with this. People may actually believe you killed people.

Of you want to try it next time you get cut just suck on the injury a little bit. The taste is not all that good. It is a lot like rusty iron.

Man I don't know how anyone can buy that stuff without feeling ashamed and embarrassed. But I mean, if you're going to make a statement that you're a wannabe vampire, than I suppose this is the way. For the rest of us, it will only get looks of disgust for appropriate reasons.

I would not be ashamed. What is there to be ashamed about? You would never know when something that stupid may come in handy (seriously, not as a prank). Plus it might be a good source of iron (if there is any in it). Maybe a good disinfectant in high concentration.

Koku · Posted: Wed Jul 23, 2008 7:47 pm Post subject:

actually if there was any iron, tat amount may be too much. Also, when people have blood in their stomach, unless they are used to the taste they may throw-up as a reflex. Blood in the stomach causes the reaction for one to feel noxious usually.

It definitly seems like a drink for someone that would like to be a vampire.
I wouldn't feel ashamed buyig it though I know what blood taste like and wouldn't want to drink a whole bottle of something that taste like it.
