Maybe, just maybe, the reason that so much Bud and Chef-boyardee are sold is
that they are really, really cheap and, especially in the case of Bud
(pardon the pun), the sellers spend 40 bazillion dollars per day molding
moldable minds into buying their cheap, canned products.
"good canned Italian food" and "good canned beers" have to be two of the
greatest "Instant Classics" (TM) in the oxymoron category that we are
likely to witness.
Well, thank god there's people like you with unmoldable minds
who can tell the rest of us what's good and what's not.
But here's my challenge to you, Mr. Flatulence In Every Glass
Fancy Shmancy Home Brewer, brew up your best pilsner and we'll
let a dozen random beer drinkers do a blind taste test with your
best and a brewery fresh Budweiser from St. Louis.
