Da Manzoid/Laurita’s have put up for auction a bottle of their black stuff, along with a signed… and VERY expensive-looking… wine glass!
The high bid right now is $41.00… and, as you can see, there have only been EIGHT bids. SO… yours just might be the bid that wins it all!!
Just be careful… you buy it, you’re stuck with it! NO RETURNS!!
******************************
Let’s take a quick look back at the RHONY… and why they decided to sign on to a “reality” show…
NOTE: WHY do every one of these Housewives insist on using their appearance on a “reality” show as a platform for a cause… or their “charity”… or to promote their products? WHY???? Why not just call these “reality” shows what they are: old time soap operas, or “daytime dramas,” that have obliterated the REAL soap operas/daytime dramas and morphed into evening soap operas hiding under the cloak of “reality” programming.
It would be great to see a Bravo “reality” show where people are simply playing their parts and being honest about it. We all know these shows have not been “real” since the first season of the Real Housewives of Orange County catapulted the Housewives into “reality” gold. After Bravo knew they had a hit on their hands with the RHOC, they fired the creator of the OC series and Evolution Media took over production. We all know, too, that these shows are NOT “reality”… they are scripted. Yes, the Housewives will insist in EVERY interview they appear that everything you see is “real”… well, it’s not. The producers have their job and it’s to make sure that what you’re seeing is what their little minds have created. The Housewives are there simply to fill in the blanks to the producers scripts.
At this point, bring back “All My Children”!!! At least you knew you were watching a phony-baloney show… and not one pretending that it’s not!
I’m speechless. What whores. Who’s watching that poor child?
Damn I hope I get that black sludge for my trophy self.How much of the $41 goes into their hands.The charity will get less than 10% I would ventrure to say.
And what percentage of the proceeds will be donated to St. Jude’s? Did I miss where it stated 100%?
They are all P O S. Watch Anderson Cooper on CNNHD tonight at 8 let’s see the shit fly there.
What are you talkn about?
I was talking about the ebay sludge that’s for bid then I said about the Anderson Cooper show that JAXASS the SLIME was on.
I get it now. Went right over my head. I didn’t know what POS was. Duh.
Why do I suspect the wine glass aint part of the deal?
HA!
Is that bad?
Why is it with a wine glass? Is that because in the morning when they wake up blind, hungover they just grab their wine glass from the night before and pour their black water in it and guzzle it down while trying not to puke and hope it cures their hangover?
Would someone buy a bottle and tell me who is the bottling company because I’d like to check them out. Also they used to use Canadian Spring Water – now it reads “water”. Are you allowed to change product and not change your description??? Why wouldn’t you donate to your sister’s charity???
Good question.
Nonna: Am looking right now at the last black water bottle. Here’s what it says: “Filtered spring water with the blk.proprietary blend of fulvic acid trace mineral complex. Water quality and information may be found at: blkbeverages.com.” Yes, still have the ONE bottle left from the SH taste test last year! TFC!! SH
I know, but no where that I have seen do they state who the bottling company is. Do you know anyother bottled beverage that doesn’t state where and by whom bottles it? And on Amazon the old description is still there and it says “Our proprietary blend of fulvic acid (a derivative of plant matter) is mined from an 80 million year old source deep within the earth. Naturally black in color, the formula binds to the molecules of our pure Canadian spring water giving blk its signature black color, with no artificial dyes, coloring, or additives. Fulvic acid is critical in the growth of plant life, helping the transportation and absorption of nutrients. Fulvic acid’s small molecular structure allows for the fast absorption of over 77 different trace minerals and elements, powerful electrolytes, and antioxidants. ” On their site it says “Mineral Infused Water.” I’m Confused.
On the website, about BLK it now states: Inspired by nature: blk. water is the first functional beverage that enables you to experience the power of Mother Nature’s secret weapon, fulvic trace minerals. Fulvic trace minerals play a critical role in the growth of plant life, assisting in the transport and absorption of nutrients inside the plant cell. Once these minerals are extracted from our source and added to pure water, the water turns black naturally without the use of any artificial dyes or colorings. This enables blk to harness the power of fulvic minerals and deliver powerful electrolytes, trace minerals and a high pH to consumers without any carbs,calories, or sugar. Join in the Excitement, and discover why so many are drinking blk.
What is a functional beverage? So now the fulvic acid which used to be mined from an 80 million year old source is reduced to “our source” and pure Canadian spring water is reduced to “pure water”.
Did they register with anyone that they changed their product? WHAT A SCAM. Seems funny that Jillian Michaels would endorse this now changed product.
Just found out they can be bought in Sweden too( wich is 40 m drive from where I live). Its tempting to buy one and taste it. But then I would put money in the Manzo pockets. Hell no! So I will stick with your taste test Miss SH and leave it at that
Ms. SH, do you know if : jac and co. r auctioning it off or is this ryan mccabe@phillyroll87 auctioning it off??? it looks like Jac rt-ed it…new to twitter so i really dont know nor do i know how to do a screen shot or whatever it is to link it and sorry if u posted already and i missed the infor but just saw it on twitter
gunner: The post says it all. Can’t make it any clearer. SH
not arguing, just wondering cuz u have it that she put it on ebay but the seller is a ryebread 2000 and the tweet was that other person ryan mccabe@phyillyroll87 with jac just retweeting it…thats why i was asking whether or not i was misunderstanding, sorry if it came off rude or something, like i was saying, im new to twitter so i didnt know if i misread ur post and the tweet
bottling company, Hoboken Beer and Soda outlet.
just kidding
The show promotes drinking /wine.No wonder all have ventured into some kind of wine or alcoholic business.You never see them sit down and have a bottle of black sludge.Wonder why.
True. If you notice ALL of the housewives shows seem to promote alcohol , I think the worst is the O.C. I like the show but alot of drinking. Of course that promotes the drama. If most of us drank that much we would be on the floor , but then again , they may not always finish the glass. Except for Jcy.2theJoe. he seems to enjoy.
Ms. SH, I would pay triple their starting bid for your autograph on a styrofoam cup! They look so pathetic. They can’t even sign the bottle because it wouldn’t show up until it was empty! LOL
So who is this “ryebread2000″ that is auctioning off this crap and this is the only thing they are selling??? How do you know they are giving the money to St. Judes???? I wouldn’t believe it unless there is a signed statement from St. Judes.
As a matter of fact, just send a donation to St. Judes and save yourself the shits.
Hahahahah
The statement from St. Judes remark – Said!
My Aquafina bottle of water says right on the bottle” Pure Water – Purified Drinking Water” Bottled by Bottling Group LLC, Harrisburg, PA Cert #______.
Glad to see others questioning this, Nonna. If they had to list the source of the water, I’d bet anything it will be a municipal source aka, tap water. Purified, no doubt, but tap water. I wish someone had a contact at a public water purification facility, because I’d bet anything that fulvic acid is one of the substances that they take great care to filter OUT of the drinking water because it helps your cells to better absorb carcinogens like chlorine and flouride.
If your really interested : read this :Humic and fulvic acids stimulate the growth of Mycobacterium avium
Richard A. Kirschner Jr.†, Bruce C. Parker, Joseph O. Falkinham III*
Article first published online: 17 JAN 2006
Ms. SH, I hope I did not break a rule, this is not a link- just something to google if someone is interested.
PS: not an easy read
Thanks for the share! I read the article, and while most of the statistical references were beyond my grasp, from what I took from it is that the fulvic and humic acids create a very friendly environment to stimulate growth of this bacteria. So it wouldn’t be a huge leap to state that any person suffering from AIDS or any conditon that supresses the immune system (cancer patients, etc) should NOT DRINK BLK!!!
I wouldn’t wait for the Manzos or Lauritas to rethink the product.
Or anyone with autoimmune disease(s) taking medications to suppress their immune system, such as prednisone, methotrexate, etc. Also, anyone who is on chemotherapy for various illnesses, not just cancer. Oh heck… anyone in general should not drink this sludge!
Mycobacteria are very dangerous and some of the hardest to treat! Yay, got my nerd point for the day!
Hmmmmmm…..if I wanted a wine glass like that, I would buy one at the 99cent Only store, and it wouldn’t have all that stupid writing on it. If I wanted to make a donation to St. Jude’s, I would get out my checkbook and wouldn’t let the Manzoids take a bite out of the donation. Stop trying to get in my wallet, Manzoids, it ain’t never gonna happen.
Just read where all states require that each approved bottler is given an assigned certification number. They have to go through recertification each year. So it shouldn’t be too hard to find the bottler for BLK since if it is required in the US to be certified, it should be on the bottle. I guess I’ll have to make a trip to my local Wegmans to check out the bottle for myself.
keep us posted!
It is now at $42.00!!!!!!
My birthday is this Saturday…on second thought, never mind.
I wouldn’t bid 42 cents on that nonsense! Who ARE these people who are bidding?!
It’s them, that’s how sellers get their prices up….
Are they delusional? Do they think they are celebrities? Just how have they helped society? Who or what is feeding their egos?
They are the same schmucks who would bid on A Jesus face grilled cheese sandwhich.
Now I want a grilled cheese!!!
I think the “Who” is Ms Andy.
If I recall correctly, the want ads for new housewives or calls for submissions advertise the show as a platform or whatever to promote their brand or causes. It is a big product placement informercial.
just saw the jac piece on anderson cooper. have already commented on that. now this.
have these people no shame. i do donate to st. judes, and do not have to buy their water to do it.
how can anyone respect a work out of their mouth. do they not believe in karma, god, anything?

No where on e-bay does it say it is them selling it. I think it somebody that went and got the signatures and is selling it or am I missing something?
I think you’re right. It says the item is located in Philadelphia. I just looked it up again to see the current bid, and my 9 year old was sitting next to me. She asked me what it was, and I told her it’s black water. And her response was, “That’s really stoopid.” I must say i think my 9 year old is pretty smart. LOL
PT said “having watched the show for 5 years….” Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t she the one who claimed never to have seen it??? I know….I’m always wrong…..but I KNOW someone said that…..(maybe)
cherry: You are correct! PT has a serious problem when it comes to remembering what she said… and to whom! TFC!! SH
If they are selling it for charity then is it possible that this is the leftover BLk they need to get rid of it. I already donate to St.Judes and I sure don’t want that Blk failed adventure.
Or working as part of the law suit settlement with Canadians to promote the drink.If they lost the deal could be they have to promote the drink–advertising to pay the debt owed of they owe one.
