Many good, funny movies begin that way - look at Mel Brooks' output such as
Blazing Saddles, or Young Frankenstein.

I make tomato juice from time to time if I cannot find Red Gold (brand) in the
stores.

      Title: Homemade Tomato Juice
 Categories: Vegetables, Soups
      Yield: 2 quarts

     12 md Tomatoes; very ripe, cored,
           - quartered *
    1/2 c  Water
    1/3 c  Coarsely chopped onion
      2    Ribs celery; coarse chopped
      1 ts Minced fresh parsley
      1    Bay leaf
      1 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Sweet paprika
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Sugar
           Your favourite hot sauce;
           - optional

  * UDD says - For a really striking juice - use yellow
  tomatoes.

  Combine first 6 ingredients into Dutch oven, bring to
  a boil.

  Reduce heat.

  Cover and simmer 30 minutes.

  Remove from heat.

  Put vegetable mixture through a chinois, Foley food
  mill or sieve.

  Stir in salt, paprika and sugar.

  Chill thoroughly.

  Serve over ice if desired.

  NOTE: Tomatoes are low in acid, so youâ€Öll need to add
  acid to prevent spoilage if you plan to can your juice.
  The easiest way to do this is to add a teaspoon of lemon
  juice or citric acid to each of the canning jars.

  Yield 2 US quarts
