A Month of Ill-Fated Consumer Products #1: Orbitz

Orbitz was a clear, thick, fruit-flavoured drink full of slimy little balls that slid down your throat like the semen of some horrible cartoon incubus. I think it was called Orbitz because you needed a healthy dose of Newton's inverse-square law to keep from puking it back up, or maybe it was supposed to sound futuristic or something. The 1990's were so fucking stupid.

I don't think I ever tried Orbitz, but I definitely remember it collecting dust on convenience store shelves back in the day. I always thought it would be like drinking a lava lamp.

I'm sort of legitimately sorry I never got to try this drink.

Half melted Jell-O is about as accurate of a description as you can get. Bravo, Rapist! (How often do I get to say those two words together?)
