Ohhhh-kaaay. That's the slogan they're going with?
This is what a bog is, according to dictionary.net: "A quagmire filled with decayed moss and other vegetable matter; wet spongy ground where a heavy body is apt to sink; a marsh; a morass."
I can't even think of a worse slogan for Ocean Spray to have. Maybe "Ocean Spray: Mostly Toilet Water"?
...Yeesh. Maybe they ought to reconsider their advertising firm. Who the hell wants something that's fresh from landfill juice?

Cranberries are actually grown in bogs which are filled with pure water. They have air pockets inside of them, so they float when shaken from the branches by a mechanized rake machine. It's an extremely clean way of harvesting the fruit, and it's happening all across America right now. You should check it out - Ocean Spray is promoting their growers and the cranberry farming heritage right now, and believe me, it has nothing to do with toilet water!
