Greatest Stuff on Earth My Ass!
Did you ever pat yourself on the back, for getting a Snapple with lunch or dinner rather than a soda? Well I have, and the other morning while getting a Sunday morning doughnut, I said lets be a little healthy and have a Snapple since all they had was orange juice from concentrate. Happily I walked home with the dog, drinking my ever so tasty Snapple, when I stopped and started to read the label. Barely visible in the top left of the front side, I noticed it, and you know what "it" was? It said "5% Juice". Now how can something that is made from the "Greatest stuff on Earth" be ONLY 5% juice. Unless there is a 6 foot 4 Greek god with wash board abs, biceps I can hang a coat on, and an ass I can put a shelf on these people are LIARS!! To add insult to injury, when telling my Apple Genius Bar consultant the story, he laughed and said "I know". Apparently he sent them a letter asking what "natural flavors" are? And if you check the label there it is plain as day as an ingredient "natural flavors". He received a letter back with a large amount of coupons with the quote "natural flavors are flavors that were derived from natural things". Come on! In this day and age where we are living in the most obese, short life spanned country in the world, these people are allowed to advertise there drinks as being from "The Greatest Stuff on Earth". So as far as I am concerned I either want a picture of the Adonis mixing chemicals into a big cup, as he pours in "natural flavors", or I am going to dedicate my life to telling people how bad Snapple really is for you. I said in the title and I will say it again, Greatest stuff on earth my ASS!
