I've always considered CapriSun to be nothing more than sugar water, lol. But they are handy when you're on the road. You can freeze them solid and use them instead of ice or ice-packs in the cooler. (But you can do the same thing with 16oz water bottles.)
just poured one into a cup, it was clear. which ones have food coloring? edit: the video says its always done without food coloring as well. did you just make your common about the food coloring up?
I got a few flavors of Capri-Sun earlier this year after not having them for a bit over 3 years or so and wondered if I was remembering the flavor wrong as they tasted very watered down. But if they cut the sugar content in '22 that'd explain it. I haven't bothered to get them since as they're too bland now imo.
Now they just released them in a bottle, like regular juice. Doesn't that kinda defeat the point. It's like getting a happy meal in a plain brown bag with no toy. ...and yes, as a 48yo man these things are important!
Our young granddaughter loves Capri Sun and always has one or two whenever she comes over. I usually try to open it over the sink and squeeze a little bit out before handing it to her since she’s still a messy eater.
I have had countless capri suns in my youth and never had much difficulty in opening the package as long as you had the straw that came with it that was uniquely designed to come to a point to enable the easy puncturing of the straw hole. it doesn't surpprise me at all that if they sold them with (imo stupid) paper straws that people would have trouble with them though. to be fair, I haven't had one in a large number of years (at least 10-15) so it's possible that there was a change in the way that they manufactured their straws or pouches that caused the problem. I do recall, however, if the straw was lost or damaged, that a hard (usually metal) poking object was required in order to extract the drink (i usually just used a fork tine or the point of a knife to stab the opening and then put my lips to it and squoze the package to reasonable effect.
"You know those little pouches of juice that you punch straws into? I think I dreamed I was one of those." -Mark Kendal (aka James (Jim) Carrey, "Once Bitten" 1985 film)
I liked these!! But, they aren't available in Canada 🇨🇦 We have Kool-Aid products like this 🍁 they are also difficult to open, especially for people with disabilities-or anybody for that matter
Heck, I used to just plug the flat end of the straw with my thumb as I jabbed it in. Helped a lot and even prepped me for my later straw skills with bubble teas.
They're super ez to open if you position things correctly. Push the straw opening so that it's flat when the pouch is sitting vertical and perpendicular to the face of the pouch. Make sure to only re-position the front of the pouch in this manner and not the back as well. When the opening is perpendicular to the face of the pouch it's super easy to poke the straw directly down into the pouch. Trying to insert the straw when the hole is vertical and not re-adujsted is of course unpleasant at best. But just reposition the hole so you're not trying to puncture it at an angle makes it soooo easy to insert the straw.
5:50 Just like some types of chip bags, the packaging is a layer of aluminum and a layer of plastic/polythene. 9:59 1.4 billion of the pouches just get thrown in the trash. Kraft Foods, the current owner, doesn't care that the packaging isn't more recyclable.
The opening of the pouch is made somewhat easier by putting your thumb over the flat side of the straw, then, when you poke the pointed end of the straw into the pouch. Putting your thumb over one end somehow increases the strength of the straw.
I used to pride myself in having a whole drawer in my fridge dedicated to Capri Sun, open it and there was nothing but various flavors of Capri Sun to choose from.
I’ve bought capri sun before and I’ve had trouble with the pouch I’ve had trouble poking the strew through the pouch sometimes I would poke it right through leaving a juicy mess on the table
I always just put the straw in at an angle, so it slips between the plastic and outside of the pouch, not punching a hole but rather separating the heat/glue joint
WTF, never had a problem as a child, now been completely blind for seven years still no problem helping opening them for the kiddos, although I will say if you try to do it from the bottom in reverse fashion as a blind person it's a little more harder now because you just don't want to udo it so hard and squirt it everywhere so I guess there's less precision or maybe more fear of spilling other than that I don't know what y'all are talking about
change of package can kill a product i have not had a Snapple in years last time i got one it was a plastic bottle i want glass and turn over lids with random trivia no more
Making us watch 11:20 of a 12:00 video to get to a half answer to the question posed in the title of said video takes longer and more annoying than opening a Capri-Sun.
This year for Halloween, the trick r' treat candy is going to be a Wild Cherry Capri-Sun and Fruit Rollups (this year it is Tropical Tie-Dye with an auxillary box of Blastin' Berry Hot Colors)... Trick r' Treaters will also be offered a Druid (Black Cherry Shasta mixed with Maraschino Cherries) that I will make in front of them.
Nutrition is not the goal of Capri Sun, it's goal is to taste good and be cold. A couple packs of Caori Sun isn't going to give your child herpegonhasyphabeetuscancer.
0:47 I was thinking about Halloween costumes and was wondering "What would a Weird Historian look like?" It would take a lot of brainstorming, but if that costume could be pulled off it would be a smash hit!
*What are you talking about? Absolutely zero pasterized juices have vitamins in it, it is pasterized at more than 100°C so all vitamins and many nutrients are gone at this temp! If a pasterized juice contains vitamins, it is some kind of chemical powder added later in the process (like multivitamin juices). Also, concentrate is absolutely not what you describe, this is some sort of fruit compote/marmelade added with water, this is the opposite of "100% pure juice" wich means that the fruits are pressed directly.*

You completely mispornounced the German word "Sonne" - sorry, you'll find correct pronounciations to hear online with Google in like 30 seconds and you're a large channel. That work is something I expect of you!
lots of english speaking youtuber are like this. They spend hours or days on research, but a quick google search for correct pronunciation - no time. Sometimes, narrators are just paid voice actors with no instructions how to say some words correctly, and they don't care.
The mispronounciation of German names and words in this video is just UGH!!! Sonne is pronounced "zo-nah", NOT sun... and Wilde is pronounced "vill-deh", NOT wild. i love your videos, but please get better with foreign language pronunciations... ive caught this in a few of your other videos too.
Ahhh yes, a childproof children's drink.
Companies that make stuff to Baby-proof you living spaces should take note.🤣🤣🤣
I've had more trouble with the plastic wrap around the straw than I ever had with the straw going in the pouch
RESPECT THE POUCH! (RESPECT IT!!)
They used to be hard to open in the 90s. My mom called the complaint hotline a lot than eventually they became easier to open.
Thanks mom
A true hero of kids everywhere
Those and the Kool aid drinks were hell
Is that why I successfully opened my first Capri Sun in years last month on the first try? I thought I was awesome.
@@TheBronyBraeburn I'm gonna get some tomorrow got real thirsty for it first time in probably like 15-20years
Think Capri Sun is rough ? Try getting an Immodium tablet out of that packaging when you need it !
I've always considered CapriSun to be nothing more than sugar water, lol.
But they are handy when you're on the road. You can freeze them solid and use them instead of ice or ice-packs in the cooler. (But you can do the same thing with 16oz water bottles.)
The fact that it's basically sugar water seems to square with a pouch designed to be opened by the bill of a hummingbird.
Hear me out... adult-sized, lightly spiked, with handle grips.
I mean it's not spiked but they do make "adult" sizes, aka jugs that you can buy.
I love how there is food coloring in a product you don't actually see while drinking through a colored straw out of a silver container.
just poured one into a cup, it was clear.
which ones have food coloring?
edit: the video says its always done without food coloring as well. did you just make your common about the food coloring up?
@@ZenithsLuminafruit punch is red. I got a few of the large bottles. And the bottle is clear but the liquid is red

Yes, indeed.
They still sell the pouches so its up to the buyer
I like the option of having a bottle that holds more than 3 sips like the pouches
Accidentally making a giant hole in the pouch with the straw is one of the most annoying things ever
Our young granddaughter loves Capri Sun and always has one or two whenever she comes over. I usually try to open it over the sink and squeeze a little bit out before handing it to her since she’s still a messy eater.
Pro tip, lick the end of your straw before piercing the pouch. The spit will help it adhere to the entry slot and pierce it instead of bouncing off
All you have to do is firmly but not harshly squish the packet and then the straw hole is puffed up and out, easy to stab with the straw.
I have had countless capri suns in my youth and never had much difficulty in opening the package as long as you had the straw that came with it that was uniquely designed to come to a point to enable the easy puncturing of the straw hole. it doesn't surpprise me at all that if they sold them with (imo stupid) paper straws that people would have trouble with them though. to be fair, I haven't had one in a large number of years (at least 10-15) so it's possible that there was a change in the way that they manufactured their straws or pouches that caused the problem.

Capri-Sun is one of the few drinks that you can drink underwater. I used to take some with me while scuba diving.
Drinking Capri-Sun underwater with a paper straw sounds like quite a challenge.
@@eivind-falkIsn't that just in the EU?
The key to opening it is squeeze the pouch while you stick it in 😀
Scenes from a Hat:
"Mating advice for kangaroos."
I liked these!! But, they aren't available in Canada 🇨🇦 We have Kool-Aid products like this 🍁 they are also difficult to open, especially for people with disabilities-or anybody for that matter
You stick it with the straw's bevel facing out.
It's not rocket science.
Heck, I used to just plug the flat end of the straw with my thumb as I jabbed it in. Helped a lot and even prepped me for my later straw skills with bubble teas.
Used to give these to the grandkids all the time many years ago, we never had a problem getting the straw in the pouch.

A properly folded paper clip makes a great impromptu ice pick for purposes of penetrating a Capri Sun's armour.

Think I’ve only had capri sun a handful of times mostly with my niece .. I was a metal can Hawaiian Punch/ hi c kid
There were many times when I was a lunch room supervisor I had to open someone's Capri Sun, gave up, and just went to get some scissors.
what a great video. i was wondering why there is capri sun everywhere in germany.
Shout out Kool aid Jammers in Canada
6:18 Well that's not fair at all... Why does Europe always get the cool stuff...
I have never heard of anyone thinking they're hard to open. You literally just put a straw in it, how could that be hard?
Always Respect The Pouch
The larger European one was made available in the US in the early '10s, but was later discontinued.
I thought the point of the clear bottom was for their Roaring Waters line to show that it had no artificial dyes
The opening of the pouch is made somewhat easier by putting your thumb over the flat side of the straw, then, when you poke the pointed end of the straw into the pouch. Putting your thumb over one end somehow increases the strength of the straw.
I used to pride myself in having a whole drawer in my fridge dedicated to Capri Sun, open it and there was nothing but various flavors of Capri Sun to choose from.
Never had any trouble with opening the pouch
The new cardboard straws they've started using just break instead of poking through.
Watermelon flavor. Freezing them makes for free waste less ice for your cooler! Not to mention being a slushy drink!
good video
When I was a kid we'd stab the straw through the bottom of the pouch instead.
Yeah, same! You couldn't really put it down, but those things were so small that it's not like you ever needed to.
Ugh, Capri Sun. Enough drink to fill a shot glass, and never-ending garbage all over the place. Gotta love it.
I find they're much harder to close than open.
Thanks for this! 🍒🍊🍋🍇
Getting the straw unwrapped without breaking it is the struggle. Punching the straw into it is eazy.
the mold is what gives it flavor
Recycle straw for a Capri Sun?!
Child abuse😅
When she said the kool aid man would never lie to us
Me: OOOOOH YEEEAAAHHHH😎
Am I the only one who would just jam the straw in a random part of the pouch instead of the intended hole?
Your German pronunciation is impeccable
Yes opening a Capri Sun you should have like a QB rating for that like you've got like a 67% completion ratio
My loyalty is to Capri-Sun, TO Juicery's!.
If you are not with me, then you are my enemy!
Only Cool-Aid deals in absolutes. I will do what I must.
I never saw any Capri-Sun products in the Philippines.
I’ve bought capri sun before and I’ve had trouble with the pouch I’ve had trouble poking the strew through the pouch sometimes I would poke it right through leaving a juicy mess on the table
Respect the pouch!
They're... not hard to open, what? Just put the straw in the hole at the top.
I never struggled with it but lots of kids did because for some reason they couldn't aim and pushed the straw too hard
I always just put the straw in at an angle, so it slips between the plastic and outside of the pouch, not punching a hole but rather separating the heat/glue joint
did capri sun have the straws with the sugary, sour powder in them at one point? or was that another juice box/pouch drink? or am i making this up??
You had a field trip in the late 00’s and had a lunchable. That was a great day.
0:21 There simply has to be someone that specializes in making incredible lunchbox combinations!
Oh haven't you heard? The top TH-cam stars made one! It's got Prime and a chocolate bar!
It’s super easy to open. I’m confused.
WTF, never had a problem as a child, now been completely blind for seven years still no problem helping opening them for the kiddos, although I will say if you try to do it from the bottom in reverse fashion as a blind person it's a little more harder now because you just don't want to udo it so hard and squirt it everywhere so I guess there's less precision or maybe more fear of spilling other than that I don't know what y'all are talking about
it’s because of the In Cels on why we can’t get nice things in the world
I've always hated those [words youtube won't let me use] things.
Its not. Manipulate the pouch so the puncture area is semi flat. Poke through. Easy.
This video is shorter than the time is takes to open a Capri Sun.
my favorite flavor is the fruit punch
High Fructose Corn Syrup is enough information.

Could have taken the 10 seconds to check how to pronounce Sonne...
They changed the name to Capri Sun a while ago,...
That is NOT how the Gen Z do things! Ranker ain't got no time for that!
Live in the uk they are everywhere
Just here to say her voice is so relaxing and fun! Idk why but the authors in this channel are out of this world lol!
Liquid Slam!
You need edward scissor hands to do the job
Capri sun, bring back the yogi berry flavor, you bums.
Treat the pouch just like you would treat a woman. Be gentle and don't shove it in
You had a field trip in the mid 90’s and had a lunchable. That was a great day.
They're really not though
I don't know who the narrator is but I love her voice❣️🥹✌️. If only there was a DrPepper episode narrated by her it would've been a great episode.
Pretty sure it’s AI like every other voice over these days.

Not my narrator 💩

Parents must really not like their children to give this nutritionally horrible drink to them.

I'll never understand why a company would make a children's drink that they couldn't open themselves... also, truly disgusting and WAY TOO SWEET!!!
Is this sold in Canada ? Never heard of that drink.
So do you guys buy stock in these companies after you run these hit pieces?
Why do you guys say Ca-PREE like it's a French word?
It's Italian - and it's CA-pree.
Because they're not Italian or French? Get over yourself.
