"In Salt Lake City, where I live, there was this great smoothie company called Zuka Juice. The owner, Dave, sold it to a Cali company called Jamba Juice, who essentially copied his juicing idea anyway. I'll bet that the owners didn't know that the word comes from Sanskrit meaning a tooth, tusk, a set of teeth or jaws. It also means a demon who crushes or swallows. At least that is what it looks like to me. Below is a close-up image. By the way, Dave opened a great restaurant chain called Rhumbis. When you are in Salt Lake City pay them a visit to have the Voodoo Salad. Spicy delicious!" - Nielsen
