I saw these in the store and was surprised to see no corn syrup, and some fruit juice/extracts on ingredients.

I was working the overnight shift at HEB last year when these came out. I didn’t try them, but “overnight stocker at HEB” is the target for skittles “juice” and everyone said they were terrible.

Did we ever decide how Juicero is pronounced? Emphasizing the “cero” has a vaguely Italian feel that I don’t think it deserves but it needs an extra “o” at the end to give it the kangaroo/ juicero that is my favorite.

Courtenay Harris @thatharrisguy.bsky.social

This will sound weird, but it tasted like a smooth, sour liquid color. Like, the sour apple just tasted like smooth, sour green. Same for blue and purple.

I don't think so because I vaguely remember wishing it was carbonated.

Lol, that would fit with your description. It's more like sour Kool aid, it just tastes like red (or purple, etc )

why were there multiple brands of this

As for Kool-Aid Kool Bursts, showing a kid with his hat popping clear off as his eyes bug out from the pure hit of sugar coming from a dark pink plastic bottle with various fruits rolling their way up a wave of slightly lighter pink airbrushing to the Kool-Aid logo with “Kool Bursts” underneath in the same font. The ad copy reads BRING HOME A BURST OF GOOD TASTE in tilted black block text (with Kool-Aid Kool Bursts). At the side, on a yellow panel, are the 6 FRUITY FLAVORS in tiny six-packs: dark pink, orange, red, purple, a blue that is not found in nature, and magenta
