[HealthyHams] Weigh Day

[Jim, WD9EYB]

I do like V8.  It's expensive though.  The generic stuff is cheaper
but it has more sodium.  There's also the barbeque sauce effect
if you drink V8 right after eating something with cinnamon in it.
It tastes like your drinking barbeque sauce.  But a nice big drink
of V8 with lots of ice can be really good.

Here's a trivia question.  How come the 12 oz can of V8 really
only has 11.5 ounces in it?

Answer:  Since V8 isn't carbonated there's no pressure in the can
to keep it from getting crushed.  They have to leave enough space
so there can be compressed air in the can to provide the pressure.
