Shirt.Woot

This holiday season, I plan on giving thanks for puns.

Does shirt.woot pay itself $1,000 for its own daily prints?

If this is still around in the AM, I may jump on it.

Yum, cranberry sauce. Anyone know how to make fresh cranberry sauce?

I don't...get it.

Ugh, you should never be able to slice sauce.

Oddly enough, both meanings of the word "sauced" have close ties to football.

Why is the red aluminum can getting sliced? Or is it a sausage? Either way, it looks weird.

I'd prolly wear this to my Office thanksgiving/christmas party. Either way we are all gettign sauced.

This shirt is berry clever.

it's so hard to get the slices just right...

How about a little sauce recipe?

Congratulations to Shirt.Woot on the print! Some people doubted you, but I always had faith that you'd make it as an artist!

Does anyone actually eat that stuff?

like everything else these days is this spam inspired?

I agree it does look weird, but it is cranberry sauce that has come out of a can; it keeps the shape of the can after coming out.

this joke is canned...or was

Less popular was the original design for this shirt which said "Let's get mallowed!" and prominently featured yams.

Yes. Yes, I do. Yum, indeed!

I think I'd buy the shirt if the text wasn't so brazen and the sauce wasn't the slicable kind. I hate the cran-can-jelly, with it's wee beady eyes, and that smug look on it's face 'Ahhh, you're gonne ta eat my jelly!'

But srsly...my cranberry sauce needs some real cranberries in it.

And lots and lots and lots of sugar.

I saw Neil Hamburger live a few days ago.
One of my favorite (SFW) jokes of the night was "*WHY*!?!?.......did legendary KISS frontman Gene Simmons wear a....sombrero....on stage?....Out of compleeeeete desperation!"

He then proceeded to yell at the crowd about how his jokes weren't cheap prop comedy for the next several minutes.

Hot dam, I could stick a spike in that and just eat it like a lolipop.

Freakin Thanksgiving.....soooooooooo goooooooooooooodddd.

What does this have to do with slicing spam?

perfect to wear to this year's thanksgiving get-together. not so perfect any other day.

Great choice of font! It's almost not 100% repulsive!

Cranberry sauce makes me less excited for Thanksgiving.

Ooooohhhhhhh, now that you mention it, that makes sense. I can't stand cranberry sauce, so I never pay attention to it. Thanks for the explanation!

Does anyone actually eat that stuff from the can?










(I totally would)

boil cranberries, add sugar

trekmiss wrote:Does anyone actually eat that stuff?

Its like my favorite food in the world. I usually eat a whole can every thanksgiving!

as our friend the kool-aid man would say, "OH, YEAH!" here's the easiest and yummiest real cranberry sauce recipe ever:

Into a saucepan over medium heat, place two 8 oz packages fresh cranberries, the zest of one orange, 1/2 cup sugar, and a cinnamon stick. Simmer until the cranberries burst and the sauce thickens, about 15 minutes. Cool, fish out the cinnamon stick, and refrigerate until well chilled. Enjoy!

p.s. i recommend carefully taste-testing your sauce after about 10 minutes--if it is too tart for you, add another 1/4 to 1/2 cup of sugar and keep cooking. berries vary... >=b

At least they didn't use Cooper Black.

I have tons of this stuff in my underground bomb shelter.

I'm only buying this tee if the letters are fuzzy.


You know, like from the '70s & '80s at quick print tee shops.

One of my favorite things about thanksgiving. Even though it's not real cranberry sauce it still tastes soooo good!

This reminds me of the story a coworker told me of the time she talked her husband into letting her making cranberry sauce from scratch. She found a sophisticated-sounding recipe ("Cranberry Metropolitan"), and as she was making it, started wondering why it had so much vodka in it. Then she realized that "cranberry" was the adjective, and she was making a drink.

"Speaking of vodka and cranberries," I said...and told the tale of a turkey dinner months before Thanksgiving, and a panicked hunt for cranberry sauce with no time to go to the nearest grocery store. Surprisingly, I found it at the nearby liquor store.

Another coworker expressed how impressed he was that I was able to actually fulfill such a suspicious segue. But "speaking of vodka and cranberries" is now one of my favorite ways to blatantly change the topic of conversation (replacing "speaking of rocks", but that's another story).

Anyway, I love cranberry sauce, but being a non-drinker, I'll have to pass on the shirt.

What happens if you microwave this shirt? Or heat it over a stove? Does it turn into a red puddle, or what?

Canned cranberry sauce is to Thanksgiving as Fruitcake is to Christmas.

For the answer to that, we turn to the Ocean Spray website, which helpfully says that Americans eat around 400 million pounds of cranberries a year, 20% of which are consumed during the Thanksgiving holiday.

It unhelpfully does not say exactly how many of those cranberries come packaged in cans of Ocean Spray Jellied Cranberry Sauce.

Let's see, divided by the population of the US, that's about 1.3 pounds per person per year.
