I get that it says “flavored juice drink” now, but I was tired and the text is pretty small.

“Fruit snacks” are so much worse. It’s just candy, and inferior in taste and texture to anything made with actual fruit.

    The “100%” on the front is very tricksy and wouldn’t fly in the EU.

    It was deliberately put there to trick people into thinking 100% fruit content, but it’s actually whatever they could find in there that had anything to do with 100%.

    Here, there’s always the fruit content up front, wether it’s 1%, 10%, 50% or 100%

      Huh? It very clearly states it’s the vitamin c content. “Vitamin C” takes up more space than 100%.

      The only scenario where that’s confusing is if you’re illiterate.

        I was half asleep grabbing snacks after a twelve hour shift.

        I don’t see why the “100%” is there, other than to try to trick you into thinking it’s “100% juice.” Like yeah, they aren’t literally lying, but they are trying to deceive.

        That is true, but it doesn’t mean the psychology in the design isn’t preying on people being stupid
