history:
History: The popularity of wheatgrass juice started in the 1930s with experiments by Charles F. Schnabel, an agricultural chemist. In experiments with various grasses, Schnabel discovered that freshly cut wheatgrass helped nurse dying hens back to health. Subsequent experiments showed that a diet supplemented with wheatgrass resulted in double the egg production.
Wheatgrass (the young grass of the common wheat plant) is usually consumed freshly juiced or in the form of dried powder. Wheatgrass contains chlorophyll, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, and enzymes.
Wheatgrass is among the most alkaline of all commonly available foods.

The state of California claims that Witches dont have the same equal protection under the law as Jews and Blacks!
The Blood Libel is the false claim made by the Inquisitions, Witch Hunts, and Witch Trials that supposedly Witches (the Inquisitions, Witch Hunts, and Witch Trials) and Jews (the Inquisitions), who supposedly were extremely ugly with large noses, supposedly kidnapped Christian babies and children (supposedly Witches lured them with offers of herbal candies), supposedly raped Christian babies and children (including oral and anal sodomy), supposedly tortured Christian babies and children, supposedly murdered Christian babies and children by baking or cooking them, and then supposedly committed canabilism by eating the cooked bodies of Christian babies and children.
The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing claims that Ralphs grocery Company (part of Kroger) has the right to engage in the Blood Libel. The DFEH said it would take action against the Blood Libel aimeed at Jews, but not when aimed at Witches.
If you are against the Blood Libel, please contact California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. Call 916-445-2841 now. Or e-mail the Governor (choose Fair Employment and Housing from the subject menu). Those outside of the U.S. can write a letter to: the Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, State Capitol Building, Sacramento, CA 95814, USA. Please be very polite.
