His favorite # was 5 and his wife's favorite # was 7. Interesting. I assumed they tried 56 recipes that weren't quite good enough, and then found one they liked. Kind of like WD-40: 39 formulas failed, but he nailed it on the 40th try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledInIllinois Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Those Bastards. I was fake newsed!?!?!?! It wasn't all fake. Heinz himself did say 5 & 7 came from fav numbers... ...but like everything else that goes through multiple sources, it comes out the othet end partially skewed. When I hear fake news, that IMO, means a totally bogus story. There is some truth to where the 57 comes from. Oh... And it was a marketing gimmick. They just had 57 varieties to back it up... Actually, they had over 60. Some, Gug didn't list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

row_33 Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 And in the 80s I was told by the experts that typing would soon be gone and that the English language would be extinct. Gee, how'd they do on that one, EVERYONE TYPES now... and English is the language of the internet. Did that stop the experts from continuing with 100% dead wrong predictions?

Canadian Bills Fan Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 TIL Eva Mendes' voice was dubbed over in the Steven Seagal movie "Exit Wounds" without her knowledge. A producer later told her her natural voice "didn't sound intelligent enough." She later replied "it was a Steven Seagal movie, and I didn't sound intelligent enough."
