Yes, we all remember the cider slider. Now I have been attacked by Cran-Raspberry.
I have some odd addiction to the Cran-Raspberry, and for the last few months I have consumed so much that it must be flowing through my veins.
Last week I had run out (OMG!) and Ryan showed up at my office with a few packs of the 12oz plastic bottles (the kind I take in my lunch). One of them had leaked on the others, so I rinsed the bottles in the sink and tossed one in the fridge.
Today I went to the fridge in the jury room, pulled out the chilled juice, and settled down for lunch. I noticed that the bottle was a little wonky shaped at the mouth and the liquid level was a hair low, but the security seal had not been broken so I wasn't concerned. Plus, there were no other cold ones and I'll be damned if I was going to let a little plastic deformation keep me from my refreshment.
I cracked open the lid and took a big gulp - which I immediately spit into my garbage can. OMG it was tainted juice! It tasted like... like I don't even know but it should never have touched my tongue! First of all, it was bubbly and second of all - IT WAS BUBBLY. WTH? How does it get like that? It fermented or something right? Don't tell me, I don't want to know. SERIOUSLY don't tell me.
Plus, when I spit it up I got juice on my pants and my chair and my desk. Apparently my aim is off when I'm being poisoned.
Now the question is - do I open another bottle or hold a grudge?
EDIT: If I die today it will either be from the juice or from the piece of cheese I ate after it dropped on the floor. Be sure to alert the coroner.
