I remember when Sobe came in a glass bottle
post
I remember it getting bought out. The older teas had about 5 ingredients on the label. Overnight they doubled or tripled. Of course we needed all those chemicals because they were cheaper than just making a good tea.
I heard Pepsi bought it and that is when they started using scop instead of sugar. Plastic instead of glass. Fuck Megacorps.
That glass Lizz Blizz was divine...and I later learned it was like 350 calories, mostly from sugar, in a single bottle.
Holy crap lol.
Dude i forgot about these!!! I used to call it sun juice when i was little. It was basically liquified sugar tho.
Did they finally kill sobe? I used to chug that stuff as a kid, tried one a few years ago, not sure if it was always that sweet, or it went the way of most good indie (that was bought up by conglomerates) beverage distributors.
It was always that sweet. Everything we drank as kids was SUPER sweet, mostly still is. Once you break the sugar addiction and try those things again later the sweetness is shocking.
As a kid? You're making me feel old. Sobe was invented when I was an adult.
Dont worry im 30 and got called old for posting this in a discord im in.
As a 31 year old, it's true. 30 is the mark when people are allowed to start calling you old. Welcome, tapioca is on the shelf.
Sobe first came on my radar around 2000, imma look it up for it, because I feel you aren't that old... Idk maybe you are old, founded in 96, bought by Pepsi in 2000.
Your what??? The fuck is lizard milk???
Increeedibly cost-ineffective to produce, I can tell you that much!
Ah yes, plastic Snapple
Haven't seen these in Canada in probably a decade
I miss lifewater. Preferred it over VitaminWater but unfortunately that's still around.
I miss Jones Juice Dave - green tea with hemp, ginseng, and royal jelly. I can still taste it, feel the jar with the metal cap.
