I see a ton of comments here hating on nostalgic people, with no actual nostalgic people in sight yet.
Personally I don't care if a pouched drink exists or not, but if they are no longer producing pouched drinks they should probably retire the brand.
Do you remember what a CapriSun tastes like? It's somewhere between an extremely-artificially flavored "juice" concentrate and a "fruit flavored" drink like Kool-Aid. The whole appeal was the packaging.
This is absolutely reeks of a bullshit "OMG the sky must be falling for you" condescending article from an older generation that thinks younger nostalgia is silly. I wouldn't give this article any more credence than a boomer yelling "Avocado Toast!" at you when you're enjoying a nice brunch. It's just needlessly sensationalist shit stirring.
It's quite literally a bit of orange juice, filled up with water and loaded with sugar.
It also includes flavoring (of which the orange juice is one). They come in more flavors than just orange.
THEY DO?!
Any chance you are thinking of SunnyD?
…yeah you’re in a Lemmy comment section.
179 post score seems highly nostalgic to me tbh
I invited myself because it's an interesting article, nothing to do with nostalgia.
