I miss when Hi-C juice boxes looked like this (and came in a bunch of great flavors).  |

Those bring me right back to early childhood. Mom would have them in the pantry for a treat or with our school lunch.  |

I still find it fascinating how we've long since reached a point where advertising Juice as having 10% actual juice in it is generally considered to be a Pro not a Con.

I've always thought they should make giant sized juice boxes and Capri Sun bags for adults.

One of my favorite goto bullshit conversational rants when I'm a couple beers deep at a tailgate party is "they need to sell Capri Sun in those giant 2 gallon wine box/bag things". My second favorite random bullshit food conversation is "whatever fast food company makes fried mac and cheese on a stick first will win the Fast Food Wars" |

The "Drink" in "Grape Drink" seems superfluous.

The "Drink" in "Grape Drink" seems superfluous. It's to distinguish it from "grape juice" (I.E: a juice made from 1005 grape juice like Welch's for example). hey call the Hi-C drink "grape drink" to make sure it's distinct from "grape juice" which they legally couldn't call it (since it only had 10% fruit juice in it and not even all of that was probably grape juice). |

TIL. There a reason the Cherry flavor doesn't have to carry the same warning then? |

Kool-Aid is no percent juice, so...I've never had Hi-C. The moms in my family though Kool-Aid packets were too expensive, so they ain't paying for ready made, name brand personal froot drinks. Hi-C had some dope commercials though. |

An Ecto Cooler box needs to be included in the Smithsonian.
