Dr. Bob
This really belongs in the previous post... but I forgot about it. And its late enough in the day that I figured I may as well just make a new post with it.
Dr. Bob. Highlight of the rankings. First of all, the name. As the writer of the review said, "genius." That pretty much covers it. Simple, yet not too simple. Bold, yet not too bold. Innocent, but not too innocent. Kind of like Cheez Whiz.
("For the record, Velveeta is pasteurized process cheese spread and Velveeta Light is pasteurized process cheese product. Cheez Whiz is labeled as pasteurized process cheese sauce, although that type isn't noted in the Code of Federal Regulations. A Kraft spokeswoman confirms that the word 'sauce' just seems to be an add-on.")
Also, Dr. Bob is made by Foodhold, USA, inc. The super-shady, double-secret company that seems to manufacture 50% of the generic products on the market. Foodhold also makes Dr. Perfect (under the Sensational brand) which is so sensational that it ranks a full one and a half cans below Dr. Bob. Does Mrs. Perfect know this?
Finally, there's the can. The first 'B' has a tongue hanging out. Its supposed to look like a mouth. In fact, the likeness is so real, there's even a uvula hanging down. (Think 'tonsil', not 'crotch.') Amazing.
Missing knock-offs update: In addition to there not being a Dr. Teeth, there is also no Dr. Pepper knock-off called Dr. Nick or Dr. Hibbert. Let me know if you can think of any others they're missing.
