Hell, thinking about it, I don't really see Snapple any more either. Loved those snapplefacts

Yeah those were what I liked...

Lizard Blizzard, strawberry banana, and Black n Blueberry Brew were the best flavors. I'm guessing that they finally went outta business which is a bummer

I drank so much of the green tea in college, I liked the pink one too, but didn't drink it quite as much

Also blows my mind that people in this topic haven't seen Snapple around, must be a regional thing because we have Snapple all over the place here, we've got individual bottles of it in our fridge

I've been seeing Snapple Elements make a comeback. Rain and Air are delicious. I don't like Fire and Earth much.

I mostly remember that time in middle school when I accidentally knocked my Sobe bottle off the desk, causing it to shatter on the floor and make a big sticky mess.

They were good, but expensive.

I remember working at my college store, every year to prep for the incoming class we'd have to work a Saturday on top of the normal schedule. Boss couldn't afford to pay us overtime rate, so instead he paid for free pizza and a beverage from the store coolers for everyone (looking back, it sounds hella illegal, lol). Anyway...point of the story is... all of us used that free drink to grab a Sobe, every year.
Was basically the only times I drank them.

Were they expensive? I used to get one every day in high school.

Snapple Elements was my shit as a kid. I collected the bottles to have something to put my marble collection into.

Those had really nice bottles. I didn't keep any but I liked how they looked.

Now that I think of it, is possible. I saw that at the Dollar General a few weeks ago. Could have been a hallucination though. Sure they weren't in those metalish bottles or whatever that was they used to be in though. Probably cost too much now.

At Food 4 Less they are a dollar, and the bottles are plastic.

cant remember the actual cost but they sometimes went on sale for a 1$ at the supermarket.

pepsi owns the company so they cut them from the portfolio.

#59 that's cool. I probably did see those at Dollar General but I am so tired most of the time and out of it I question reality. SoBe was never expensive imo. Definitely less than three dollars a bottle. I don't remember maybe like 2.59. Just some random number I am throwing out there. Maybe they were cheaper than that, it was too long ago.

I was looking for my picture of SoBe bottles but I couldn't find it maybe I named it something really unusual. Anyhow I'll take a new picture maybe later but my digital camera is charging right now. I have my mobile phone but w/e it's not that important at the moment. *shrugs* I looked at the copyright dates though and Lizard Ice says 2000 while Grape Grog says 2003. Geezus.I used to have a couple others but I guess I disposed of them,

Don't know why they stopped making it since it was so popular.

i worked in a gas station when i was a teenager and they were super unpopular. mostly due to the price being 2x that of a plastic bottle of juice. they were good though

I remember getting a sob cap that just said "stiffler's mom" in it.

That's hilarious. I just looked. My Lizard Ice says "Lizard of unusual size" and the Grape one sez: "Say hello to my little lizard."

Apparently it has a lighter taste to it. I am sure I had it a very long time ago. Otherwise I'd just be reading a wiki to you. It might throw in some different kind of herbs and things.

Remember Mistic?

Absolutely do not remember this.

Yes.

They still make it. It's in plastic bottles now and tastes like shit. Was way better when it was in the glass bottles

Usually got these joints at the chicken spots near me.

The switch to plastic was in 2010. But nowadays it's almost impossible to find in US grocery stores and the website doesn't allow ordering.

Don't know about where you live but I can find sobe pretty damn easy at a grocery store down the street. I see it in gas stations too

I still have a Sobe sponsored bicycle, love the "Team Lizard" on the back lol

For Snapple? They sold glass bottles until like 2020ish around me.

I saw it a lot and was always kurious, but never got around to trying it.

No he's talking about sobe.

RetuenOfDevsman posted...

I remember seeing them but I never tried one. The branding put me off. I could never tell what it was supposed to be. It didn't look anything like a normal soda, or any other conventional beverage I knew of.

So I didn't want to drink anything that, as far as I knew, was alcoholic or loaded with caffeine or who knows what else.

Of course, a quarter of a century later, I would just Google it, but I don't really remember if it was still around when we finally got Internet, and of course it never occurred to me to read the label, lol.

If it was alcoholic it would have been sold in the liquor section.

Pepsi will never go out of business.

They were expensive. If they were sold now they would be like $5 a bottle.

No they make the life water shit. All the lizard drinks have long since been discontinued.

Oh jeez NOW you tell me.

Somebody out there mixed SoBe with some liquor. I guess vodka would be the easiest option. Who has Rum and SoBe?

Probably. I wish I had tried all of them back then but it was too expensive.

Yuck, that sounds awful

I actually saw Snapples in plastic bottles at the local commissary, only a few flavors though.

The only flavor I liked was Orange Cream.

I forgot about that

Sobe
Snapple
Josta soda

Those drinks all make me think of the 90s

Snapple switched to plastic bottles/caps and I havent been the same since.

Rum is good with the strawberry daiquiri and pina colada ones.

Rum and strawberry sounds weird.

It's not. Strawberry daiquiri are usually made with rum. Your probably thinking of spiced rum which is different then regular rum.

TimeForAction posted...

They had a carrot drink which might sound gross but was surprisingly good

Fuck yes! I loved that one!
