I just saw this in a supermarket and I am now very upset and angry at whoever thought of such a thing and you need to feel my pain.

I want a whole adult themed lunchable with vodka in the caprisun, THC in the food, and a cigarette for desert.

Tried it. Tastes like sunny D with alcohol in it. Wasn't bad if that is all you wanted.

toynbee@lemmy.world · 20 pts · 1y

That sounds like an automatic hangover.

It is bad if that's is all you want.

FlexibleToast@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 1y (2 replies)

It doesn't taste like that. Notice the zero sugar. It has the distinct taste of artificial sweetner ruining an otherwise awesome concept.

adarza@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 1y (1 reply)

better off mixing your own; different than orange juice, but not as horrible as it sounds.

FlexibleToast@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y

Which is what I did after I tried these. Which, I almost think, is the point of these. It gets us adults to buy Sunny D.

HeyLow@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 6 pts · 1y

As someone who can't taste the flavor in most seltzers, I can actually taste the Sunny D in this one. That being said it was just okay, after I finish this box I'll just mix my own 🤷🏻‍♀️

Seriously!? 🤯

Good thing you didn’t see the hard Mtn Dew…

papalonian@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 1y (7 replies)

The hard mountain dews are pretty decent, but the hard monster seltzers are where it's at.

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y (4 replies)

I consider that a lot less evil. I don't like Mountain Dew, but I understand the concept of liking Mountain Dew. Sunny D is for parents who think their kids aren't getting enough sugar with normal Orange Juice. It's like drinking a liquid pixie stick.

papalonian@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 1y (3 replies)

Sunny D is for parents who think their kids aren't getting enough sugar with normal Orange Juice. are sick of Timmy's shit and want something to mix their vodka with.

Clearly, you've misunderstood the target demographic

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y (2 replies)

If you're sick of Timmy's shit, you don't need the mixer. It's shots time.

Saik0Shinigami@lemmy.saik0.com · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

There's some value in hiding your alcoholism from Timmy.

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

You just wait until Timmy is in the bathroom to do the shots. Do I have to think of everything to avoid the horror of Sunny D?

dingus@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Hard Mountain Dew is fucking disgusting. I like regular Mountain Dew, but the alcoholic ones are horrendous. I'm guessing it's because the alcoholic ones use Diet Mountain Dew which is the worst diet soft dunno on the planet. Dunno why they don't have a sugar option.

papalonian@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

Dunno why they don't have a sugar option.

That would also be the "worst hangover imaginable" option.

The orange ones are liquid sex.

Lol - so, flavored vapes are “targeted at children” even though smoking/vaping has always been illegal for minors. BUT putting alcohol in a classic children’s drink isn’t marketing to children… BTW, I’m not against vaping or this drink, just find it funny that lawmakers seem to think that flavored products are intended for children and adults can’t possibly like them. Real adults just drink straight vodka or smoke filterless cigarettes apparently.

WhyFlip@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Hardly anyone under 21 knows what the fuck Sunny D is.

JasonDJ@lemmy.zip · 3 pts · 1y

Yeah this is a nostalgia grab, not a child grab.

Brb, ordering minus a million cases of vintage Dom Perignon!

Besides the financial windfall, im gonna get so damn sober! 🥳

notabot@lemm.ee · 7 pts · 1y

Be careful, that much antihol in one go won't just get you sober, it'll send you right out the other side. Few can deal with that clear a view of reality.

Is that what we call screwdrivers these days?

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y

I hope not. I like drinking a screwdriver on occasion.

HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 1y (2 replies)

Gross - why would you put seltzer in that?

Krauerking@lemy.lol · 2 pts · 1y

Yeah SunnyD drinkers are getting old and have to sell them updated juice boxes.

Raiderkev@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

I bought it once. They are who we thought they were.

Doomsider@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y

Why does only your product have the warning for 21 plus!? Is it because you are a piece of shit obviously marketing to kids.

negativenull@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

We are a failed nation. This proves it

OpenStars@discuss.online · 1 pts · 1y

This works for every nation I can think of... that would offer this product on their shelves.
