Are there even vegetables in V8 Splash Lemonade and Strawberry Lemonade? (Spotted by Jenn at Walmart.)
I’m going to be honest here and say I have no idea what Skylanders is. Does that make me uncool? I also don’t know who Iggy Azalea is. (Spotted by Troy A at Meijer.)
I learned Orange Crush soda is over 100 years old. These two flavors are much younger. (Spotted by Sylvia at 99 Cent Store.)
Look! It’s Fruit Gushers Hawaiian Punch, which should not be confused with Fruit Gushers Hawaiian Punch that has just Hawaiian Punch flavored Fruit Gushers. (Spotted by kcal at Meijer.)

So does the Hawaiian Punch guy have a name? Is it Punchy?
Okay, I looked it up, and his name actually is Punchy!
The ‘reimagined’ Hawaiian Punch guy design is monstrous.
In fact, both of the V8 Splash drinks do contain A vegetable.. “Reconstituted Vegetable Juice (water and Concentrated Juice of Sweet Potatoes)”
The strawberry blend contains both watermelon, strawberry and lemon concentrates. Lemon is just sweet potatoes + lemon concentrates.
Thanks for the info! If I want a V1, I guess I shall drink this.
I used to think the Hawaiian Punch Guy’s Hat were horns…until today.
So did I. Upon reflection, that makes no sense at all, that he’d have horns, yet I like the idea of the Hawaiian Punch guy as a sort of horned god of fruit-flavored violence.
I had to read the first sentence multiple times and look at both boxes a few more in order to figure out what you ultimately meant. They probably both taste the same anyway despite the different colors.
