It's probably made in China like everything else at Wal-Mart. :ban:

Big Red Gulp
Big Red - Western Kentucky University

The college in my hometown is a Large Red Cancerous Colon polyop of some sort.

Big Red Gulp would sell well here.

Wal-Mart - try to avoid it at all costs!

I used to work at WAL-MART. I was the guy pushing shopping carts back to the entrance. You have any idea how hard that gets when the snow is ohh...say...3 feet deep?

Hated the job.

Anyway, you buy a bottle of wine, put it on the stove and simmer it until it becomes a dark glaze. Congratulations; you've made one of the most gourmet and expensive sauces in the world. Most archtype chef's do it.

I can't stand Wal Mart and I HATE the Chicoms! Nothing against the Chinese people, very nice, I just hate the government.
