What the ?????? What You Lye'n 'Bout Willis?

When I make it out to the Sunrise Supermarket in Knoxville, I typically find plenty of oddities to giggle at, ogle over, be confused in, and sometimes grossed out by.  This most recent trip did not disappoint.

Lye Water? Do we get to skip the soap all together?
Corrosive?
Get rid of your enemies this way?
Clean your pipes, for real?

FYI, it is used for curing many types of food including but not limited to Century Eggs, Lutefisk (Lyefish), Green olives and etc.

I am not going to try this one...  Just Say'n

What the ???????? Just Dew It!

So on my trip to the Sunrise Asian Market in Knoxville I found this treat!

Almond Dew?  As opposed to Almond Rain?  Almond Mud?  Almond Paste?

From what I can tell it is to Almonds what Rose Water is to Roses.  Not as strong as an Almond Extract but a lighter version that could be used in cocktails, dessert creams and etc.

 

What The ??????: Bear Essentials?

Shall we?

So does this mean we will endure drinking an unpleasant drink?  Just ask'n...

What The ??????: Gulch?

"Served in bed - raises the dead"...  I'd like to think I could raise the dead in the bed....
Hmmmmmm....  Just Say'n....

What The ??????: Skookum?

I just find humor in these photos.

Yes, shut up and drink the coffee.
Halo Wau-Wau, Muckamuck Kaupy

Skookum can mean "best", "first-rate", "ultimate", "Good hearted", "water", "stream", "lake", "monster", or a specific souvenir doll...  All qualities I expect of my morning crack fix...

What The ??????: Edgar Allan Poe-esque?

And the series continues...

Who is drawn to this package?  What is the target market group?  Macabre Poets from the American Romantic Movement?

What The ??????: Werewolf Much?

Another installment in this series of photos:

I was waiting on some friends when I snapped a series of food photos in the local Fresh Market.
This coffee art is a tad creepy...
