Remembering The Juice Weasel




So I recently worked on a project in my "day job" that required some research on Juicing and its various subcultures (Extreme Juicing, Erotic Juicing, Juiceless Juicing, Juicing for Jesus, to name a few). My immersion into the seedy underbelly of Juicing culture prompted a fond bit of nostalgia from my childhood, The Juice Weasel. Before Jim Carrey became a Hollywood megastar, he was that goofy, scene-stealing white guy on In Living Color. One of his most hilarious sketches was a send-up of "Juiceman" Jay Kordich, the caterpillar eyebrowed (Great Grand) Father of Juicing. I had assumed the Juiceman had finally been jammed into the feed chute of God's own Omega 1000 (i.e. dead), but a quick Google search indicates that Jay is still tirelessly preaching the Juicing gospel at the "ripe" old age of 148. I think I just confused him with Jack LaLanne (definitely dead).

Anyway, after I found that fantastic GIF file up there, I knew a Juice Weasel post was unavoidable.

JUICE! JUICE! JUICE! JUICE!
