He's not fat! He's big boned!
Too much sugar consumption.
it was a different time
That would be about $0.55 now.
I just looked up my local grocery store and they have individual pouches listed for $0.59 each. I'm honestly surprised it's still that close!
I get them 3 for a dollar here in Cali at certain stores.
Sugar isnt free
Neither is water. Or the pitcher you have to put it in.
Let's also factor in the cost of the calories you need to burn when you're mixing it.
I wonder what artificial coloring they used for that particular shade of green back then?
literal pulverized dollars - it's a money drink, man!
What the hell “flavor “ is that supposed to be???
Probably lime. I can't think of what else it could be.
Fungus. Kool aid puts the fun in fungus.
the flavor of MONEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Green
Ah yes. Harvested from the finest green they could find. Raised and ripened under the tropical sun and freshly dehydrated and ground to preserve it.
Electric?
No.
Every Debby Gibson fan knows that Electric Blue….
Was more into Grateful Deads when participating in the electric kool-aid acid tests
