Skinny Water!

[ladyrider100]

I have just seen a TV ad for skinny water - the new low calorie water.

WTF - excuse me if I am being extremely stupid but how do they 'make' water low calorie.

As my gran would say - I've seen it all now!!

 

[02GF74]

how? by removing the calories, derrrrrr!!!!

 

[longers]

Don't they just dilute it?

 

[ladyrider100]

But pure water doesnt have any calories so how do they take anything away from nothing

It's better for you if you don't fry it.

No doubt it will sell very well, the world is full of suckers.

I wish I had thought of it first

 

[UKPhil]

it's homeopathic water, you keep diluting it until there's no water left.

I expect it is distilled water. Skinny meaning less fluoride, minerals etc.

Didn't Coke try this a year or so ago and beat a hasty retreat?

If you boil water there's less 'stuff' in it.
If the state of my kettle is anything to go by...
*takes hammer and chisel to element*

I trust the cup of tea you made me was made with full-fat water?

marketing towards the dumb people... hell most people don't know the difference between Calories and calories

Don't drink it, die of thirst instead but think of the calories you'd be saving

 

[ComedyPilot]

a) some idiot has put money into the business to get it going
some idiot will buy the product

I must already have skinny water then. I don't think it's working.

I think that someone should set up a company to market dehydrated water. The density of it is so low that transport costs would be slashed. It is very easy to store. Quality control is straightforward - make sure you keep it dry until it is about to be drunk, then just add H2O. Nobody is allergic to it and it is as non-fattening as any drink product could be.

Anything "skinny" will sell. The advertising people know that. So, there.
