Last i knew, keesan (and Jim) would occasionally eat ovo-lacto stuff
(cholesterol, not that turkey innards qualify).  I've talked to a
number of vegans who are (or claim to be) far more interested in the 
"no exploiting or abusing animals" aspect than in non-consumption of
animal products.  Some of them come across as willing to try steak & 
eggs at a farmer's dinner table if they knew & approved of the way 
that Buttercup & the hens were treated......

Anyone interested in entering a new mystery food?

I promise you that it will not be easy.

Frozen orange juice?
keesan
response 359 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 25 20:08 UTC 1998

Sugar with Vit C added and maybe some flavoring.  Koolaid?  Or some other
premixed sugar-water drink.

 remmers is in the neighborhood.

 No, it is NOT kool-aid. 
keesan
response 361 of 610: Mark Unseen   Nov 27 17:05 UTC 1998

Orange juice or any other real juice does not have 100% of any vitamin, this
looks like they added some exact amount.  Or else the 100% figure is wrong.
I have seen apple juice with Vit C added.

Oh no! 

(Actually, I've given my share recently, I think. If somebody wants to
jump in with a new puzzler, please feel free. If nobody does, and I
haven't completely forgotten about it, maybe I'll post something in a
few days...)

(Hm, almost 2 months between my resp:363 and i's poser in resp:364
so I guess I completely forgot about it...)

That's a pretty tiny serving size - 2 Tbsp. Suggests some kind of
sauce or topping. Or maybe powdered drink mix. (I'm not guessing
at this stage, just thinking out loud.)

Chocolate tends to have fat in it, what else is half sugar?  Some sort of
drink mix with powdered milk in it?  And vitamins added?
i
response 368 of 610: Mark Unseen   Jan 19 03:14 UTC 1999

???  If it was getting the protein from powdered milk, they're be lots
more calcium in it.  Not sure if you think 3g of sugar in 2T is "half
sugar", or you're just noting that half the total carbo's are sugar.

I will take a closer look at the nutrition facts.  (If it is nutrition
information, the can is out of date, I just learned).
keesan
response 370 of 610: Mark Unseen   Jan 20 02:10 UTC 1999

About 20-25% protein, and a lot of sugar, in a small container.  No fat.
Jim is thinking, hmmmm.  No ideas yet.  We can only guess the single
ingredient stuff easily.
keesan
response 371 of 610: Mark Unseen   Jan 31 21:58 UTC 1999

Could you let us know the number of ingredients?  Or some other hint?
i
response 372 of 610: Mark Unseen   Feb 1 00:20 UTC 1999

His Snordship is on the right track.  This food's nutritional profile is
mostly due to it's main ingredient.

Hello, out there!!!  Anybody home???   :)
There's only one ingredient in this mystery food.
keesan
response 374 of 610: Mark Unseen   Feb 28 02:48 UTC 1999

Peanuts?  (Wild guess, but we just bought 25 pounds of them raw).
Is your ingredient whole or refined?
i
response 375 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 1 03:16 UTC 1999

No fat & little protein, so peanuts don't have much of a chance.

The ingredient is (as i would use the words) neither raw nor refined.
keesan
response 376 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 1 22:33 UTC 1999

Carbohydrates (sugar) and protein, high in vitamins A and C, 10 tbps per
container?  Some fiber.  Fruit or vegetable?  Not a seed if it has no fat,
but high in protein.  Not refined so no fat removed.  Dried potato?
i
response 377 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 3 03:54 UTC 1999

Yes, a fruit or veggie; no, not dried spuds.
keesan
response 378 of 610: Mark Unseen   Mar 4 23:04 UTC 1999

Beans?  What else has that much protein?  Soybeans have fat.
