just sayin’ Yuck black water is not appealing (to me anyway)
This is the most busted idea, are the kids bankrupt yet? Hey kids, I have some black ice cubes to sell you at minimum cost…call me
I tweeted to them about who is their bottler and if not where is your bottling plant. Because they have no pics or vids of the plant and them at the plant watching it getting ready for distribution. Do they wait to approve a tweet before allowing it onto the tweet page.
Doesn’t surprise me. Anyone who knows about fulvic/humic acid would want to know if there is any chance of the water containing chlorine or flouride.
Fulvic acid is a good thing, but like all good things, you should know how it works and how much you are ingesting.
I have posted questions on their blog twice before about how come their bottle used to say Canadian Spring Water and now it just says Infused Water and asked if they still are using Canadian Spring Water as states on sites you can order the stuff from and both times my post was deleted.
Keep: LOL!!! Thanks for the info!! TFC!! SH
I dont have a twitter but I would ask if I had to worry about it staining my teeth.
I think someone did and they said it won’t stain your teeth.
I want to ask then how come if blk water is so good for you, why y’all family looking so tore up from the floor up.
lol….
You know the answer….its Tre’s fault. She sabotaged their looks.
Ana & Meadow ;p cute comments!!
Right. Big Al looks like he would tear a wall down. Lauren is ready to cry or sulk. DonCaro looks like she wants to kick the dog.
On the other hand, the Manzo brothers and Greggy smile all the time but do not work.
Chris Laurita is now very fat.
Just lookin’ and sayin’.
LOL. Awesome post!
WOW!! Whoever is answering the tweets said it has “tremendous anti oxident activity.” AS opposed to antioxidant properties. And they send you to their website which still proudly proclaims “site launch coming soon” with a 40 day counter running!! Yep, these guys are brilliant!!!
OMG, why am I not surprised?? I betcha that Teresa told them not to bother about getting that site up and running and they listened to her again! Foiled again! Oh, she’s constantly employing her Machiavellian tactics against them and outsmarting them, according to them.
By saying such things, they are basically letting the world know that Teresa is far smarter than the lot of those melonheads put together. Lol, they really are a bunch of dumb, dumber, and dumbest sh*ts.
That is so funny – sounds like this is being run by the Three Stooges….well, actually we do have Albie, Christopher, BGG…..yeah, that fits! If this thing succeeds even slighty, I will be astounded. Chris Laurita had to be nuts to get involved with this and enlist those immature knuckleheads as part of the business, but then his other ventures went kaput, so maybe he isn’t cut out for owning his own business.
LAZY
I would ask, if Blk is “taking the world by storm,” why did the Candian company settle so quickly? Were they anxious to bail-out of that sinking ship?
I’ll try to find out, I know it’s tough since it was case that is closed under seal by the judge. But you may be right in some of it, they may have wanted out. What I think is that Chris said or agreed that they would give them a percentage of the sales.
It went into mediation. Mediation is 100% confidential.
From what I understood the ladies that own Blk sold the distribution to a company in Canada and then to the Manzo’s. It was stupid for the Manzo’s not have an attorney do some research before they became involved. If these people were successful in the past it was a fluke!
Albie – the flunkout first year law student – did the research. Get what you pay for.
I don’t have twitter but someone should tweet “If it is actually water and y’all love it oh so much, then why is an abundance of all those normal boring CLEAR water bottles seen in stills in the Manzo Kitchen on the SH website??” Hmmmm? I wonder what the chance is of that gettin posted
I love that!
Bahahaha! The Manzo’s are the worst self-promoters. They have no sense of business marketing.
**Big-Fat-Red was once thought of the reasonable voice of the show is constantly judging people, yelling, calling people names and losing her self control. Who wants to take advice from that maniac?
**Lauren is a make-up artist yet we never see her or her mom showing off her “talent” – They have the opportunity EVERY WEEK FOR AN HOUR to promote her “artistry” and yet we never see it. Do they realize how much people pay for a 30second ad on TV while their show is on???
**Big-Fat-UglyAss-Red wants to show off her cooking abilities yet the whole family suffers from obesity and can’t lose any weight without going to extreme measures. Who wants to be a fat-ass??
**The Laurita’s and Manzo’s want to promote their beverages but all I see and hear is them complaining about Teresa – all that makes me want to do is see what she’s has! It must be better than their stuff otherwise they wouldn’t be so bent out of shape about her.
The Manzo’s are morons.
I was correct, they don’t allow any pointed questions about their product. They just won’t post the tweet pure and simple. All I asked was who is bottling her product and/or where is your bottling company located and name. It’s a different story if I was talking crap about their product (which is my right anyway) but that wasn’t the case. It was a legitimate business and investor question and they dodged it and didn’t want to even post it on their company tweet. Chris and the Manzo’s are running a major scam and they are afraid of people finding out about it. He wants to find some big business to take over and sell to and they cash out and run pure and simple. Since the Levindi didn’t work out or anything else in California BLK is their only thing they have.
And since they can’t answer or post simple questions about their operation, then that is a major red flag for fraud. If your an investor or thinking about doing business about this product get out while you can, because they are hiding something big time.
Wow! You are probably right. Manzoids think they will sell it ala skinny girl. Whatever!
I tweeted them 3 (THREE!!!!) whole times asking if it was FDA approved or if there had been any testing regarding its benefits. IGNORED. Big ole surprise there.
I just got in so I went to twitter and all I see is Caro selling catface….
Why pay good money for this when I can get sewer water for free?
surgeon general warning drinking BLK
may cause major hormone malfunctions
Ah….now we see what has happened to Caroline — too much BLK!!
They really are stupid to think that they can alter the basest human psychology of associating clear/clean water with purity and goodness and anything dark or murky with impurity. No matter how I try to think otherwise, the thought of drinking black water makes me think of the sludge in a chemical spill and what it would gook up internally for me.
They all seem arrogant enough not to get any outside or expert opinions on their products and the names they chose for their businesses.
What? You don’t think naming a beverage after the term used for raw sewage is a good idea? You don’t think the name Calfface evokes an image of glamour and beauty? What’s wrong with you!
Hey, listen up! Dis is Caro “Big Red” Manzo. Youse are all trying to make trouble for my precious boys and I know that bitch Tre Judychay put you up to it! She may act stupid but she’s a conniving, vicious little tramp! So, youse all better stop dis shit right now and leave my precious ones alone or I know some people who can do it for yehs. Big Red
Ha Ha! Is Big Red gonna get her hubby to “destroy” us? Oooooooo! I’m sooooooo scared. What, is she gonna reanimate the limbless corpse of Tiny to come git us zombie style?
Couldn’t believe she made such a silly remark, & after crying because her f/i/l was said to be in the mob (on the first season I think). It shows you how some people’s minds work that they would seriously think that way. I don’t like Joe myself or the way he treats Tre but I do wonder what went through his head when he heard that.
OR my husband will ruin you!
I thought she said “destroy”. Whatevs. The only thing that fat f*ck could destroy is an all-you-can-eat buffet!
Snarkella: Teresa’s reply…… Are youse kidding me??? I love, love, love youse kids…..even bitchy Lauren w/ that sweet chubby little face. And, your big Al don’t even know where is the KFC …..are you kidding me??? My Juicy could clean da floor with him….and anyone else you send ovah….I’m outta heah!
Awesome!
OMG you guys are cracking me up today! Blk is going to fail or might be dead…..this would explain them not bothering with the website. If they themselves aren’t drinking the sludge….no one else will!
Ok here is a twitter question and answer – notice the misspelling in the reply from BLK.Close

@rachel———
@blkbeverages what’s the difference between water an blk other than the color?
@blkbeverages
@rachel_—– #blk has electrolytes, heavy anti-oxident activity, trace minerals, and is an alkalkine water.
antioxidant —– alkaline
CAN SOMEONE TELL ME IF THIS STATEMENT FROM ALBIE ABOUT BLK/ AUTISM IS TRUE AND FIND IT REALLY HARD TO BELIEVE …. Manzo admits he was skeptical of the claims at first and he doesn’t quite understand the science, but the more he drinks it — he downs a bottle a day — and the more he hears from satisfied customers, the more he believes in blk.
One case in particular, he told Patch, has really assured him of the product’s potential: ‘ A mother gave her autistic son blk. to drink, thinking its unique color might get him drinking more water. The boy not only drank it, he loved it, but the amazing part, he started behaving. The mother reached out to Albie, shocked, who sent her two more cases to try. Her son is stimming less and listening and following directions more. The difference, she told Manzo, is unbelievable”.
Wow! Just, WOW! That is an outlandish claim and the FDA should crack down on them for making such a statement.
Granted I dont know that much about Autism and it treatments though I know diet can help However I know there isnt any magic herb,miniral or Vitimen that can make the symtoms disappear
Shame on them for saying this because now ever parent desparate to help their child will go buy the stuff and it wont help. Whoever said the Manzo’s are selling snake oil was correct.
SORRY FOR THE CAPS…..HOW EFFEN DARE HE….HE SHOULD BE REPORTED TO THE FDA AND I DON’T KNOW HOW MANY OTHERS. I have an autistic child in my family (not immediate) and I help a friend with her son….. my daughter teaches and works with Autistic children….HOW DARE HE…..POS
I could not believe that one bit, My son is ADHD, And it takes, Meds, proper diet, regular doctor visits , Limited TV, Video games etc,,,etc…There are distinct similarities between the symptoms of ADHD and autism and wow now the Manzo’s have discovered the miracle water. …My point that a pretty gutsy comment or is it a scam are they giving false hope, And whats really interesting is last week it was all over Facebook that Jacqueline son was just diagnosed with autism WEIRD!! …….CHARITY/BLK??? Maybe i’ m over analyzing myself, but just thought it was odd!!!
Oh. My. God. That is beyond wrong to even speculate that BLK water “cures” autism. Time to contact the New Jersey attorney general’s office. Does anyone have a copy of the tweet? A phone pic of the tweet? If This info can be verified we need to act.
Well, don’t you know, that Albie no longer has a Learning Diability? BLK Water fixed it. He now has a scholarship to Harvard Law School – all because of Blk Water.
Lauren has lost 55 lbs and will be appearing on America’s Next Top Model. All because of Blk Water.
Chris Laurita now has psychic abilities. He can predict the New Jersery winning lottery numbers. He paid off all the bankruptcy debt. All because of Blk Water.
Blk Water – makes your dreams come true.
And yet dumb ole Teresa still somehow manages to outwit them all with her schemin’ and stealin’! They might want to rethink their claims, based on their own statements.
Now, if that magical blk water could only do something about Chucky’s jowls.
Jowls? Did someone say “jowls?”
I have asked repeatedly;
Where is it bottled and is it spring water? If not, what kind of water-tap water??
Is it safe for pregnant women and small children and how they can prove?
Are their actual studies? You have to be careful with ALL things as example: honey is a natural remedy for many things, but deadly to small children and infants.
Is the plastic it is bottled in the proper grade to avoid plastic particles seeping in excessive light and heat? Which is extremely important when using plastic for any consumable liquid.
NO RESPONSES!!
My next stop, The FDA. Do these idiots even know the rules involved in self made claims of a product without the proper clinical studies to back it?
I predict they will eventually get sued for false claims OR non-disclosure of certain warnings or possible effects people need to consider.
Just like the autistic child story. While I am thrilled if anyone’s child shows the least bit of improvement with autism – but, this child could have eaten a gluten-free diet and experienced the same positive results. (know of this personally). Until they are clear regarding my above mentioned concerns-they are “guessing,” speculating and not addressing possible reactions that are unsafe. Just like the “cured cancer” story they started with. Seriously, if that was true/credible, I am sure the oncologist Of patient, would have taken it seriously and a big pharma co. would be manufacturing this stuff! People are so easily fooled sometimes!! Besides, oxygenated water is/has already available in drug/healthfood stores-caution-some physicians feel even it is inappropriate for certain patient types.
These guys are only profit/fad driven. They are running with personal stories and opinions without the proper research and opinions from professionals. There are physicians who have stated this blk water does not benefit the consumer at all, waste of money.
SNAKE OIL SALESMAN!
Sorry for the long message — i am wondering in stores where this sludge is available, is it placed near windows where exposed to sun/heat, like soda, etc.. That could effect the integrity of product and especially if not bottled in the approriate-grade plastic.
OK I am finished. (sorry)
Hey guys/gals: You are all so funny with your responses!!! I have not laughed so hard in a long time! Keep up the GREAT work! Have a great night!
Weird.
1. Even water straight out of a home alkaline appliance countertop machine doesn’t stay alkaline for very long at all. They say you’d need to drink it straight outta the machine to get the benefits. There’s a reason those companies don’t sell it bottled…it doesn’t last!
2. An acid would likely make the water…(drumroll?) acidic. Not alkaline! You can’t have both if I’m not mistaken!? Certainly not in a bottle that sits on the shelf forever.
3. It looks like wine! Why are we not surprised!?
The blk website says “site launch coming soon.” They’ve been marketing this crap for a while now, so for their website to be incomplete at this late stage is unthinkable. I think it’s because they are trying not to put any details (ingredients, bogus health benefits, etc.) out there because they know it will be a liability and they will be sued for it. They misrepresent (LIE) about the miraculous properties of their sludge when they speak about it, but to put it in writing on their site would be true fraud. I looked on Amazon, and most of the positive reviews were 100% fake, filled with over-the-top compliments, sophomoric verbiage, and insults to other reviewers who hated the product. I’ve bought countless items on Amazon, but none of them had reviews which seemed to be written by silly teenagers. Chris L., Christopher, and Albie are the 2012 version of snake-oil salesman.
found the article where Albie quotes a mother who said it cured her autistic child.
http://wyckoff.patch.com/articles/manzo-laurita-family-strikes-black-gold-with-blk#comments_list
“When Ramapo High School alum Albie Manzo’s law school dreams fell apart during last season’s Real Housewives of New Jersey the Franklin Lakes resident admits he didn’t know what to do next.
Naturally, he applied to other law schools, and was dismayed that he wasn’t accepted. After one particularly good interview he found out why: The RHONJ limelight cast an unfavorable hue on his applications.
“Schools were afraid to take a chance on me coming back because of the high visibility of the show,” Manzo told Patch. “I was very discouraged and didn’t know what I would do.”
One case in particular, he told Patch, has really assured him of the product’s potential: A mother gave her autistic son blk. to drink, thinking its unique color might get him drinking more water. The boy not only drank it, he loved it, but the amazing part, he started behaving. The mother reached out to Albie, shocked, who sent her two more cases to try. Her son is stimming less and listening and following directions more. The difference, she told Manzo, is unbelievable.
Bullcrap. Albie is a lying about the reasons other law schools would not accept him. If that was the reason they gave him and he tucked his tail between his legs and DIDN’T fight that then he should not be a lawyer. So either way…..
I am livid about the autism claims.
The other schools wouldn’t take him because he flunked out of the one school and didn’t have the grades. Visibility my a&&. Jodie Foster went to Yale. Hermione from Harry Potter goes to Brown. They both have MUCH higher visibilty than a kid from a cable tv show!
