Snapple and WFNX have come up with one of the cooler promotions I have seen in a while; Snapple is sponsoring 40 days of airtime so WFNX can go commercial free. They are also sponsoring some concerts most notably a free Dashboard Confessional show this Thursday which I will be attending. Despite the cool promotion, there is no way in hell I am going to be drinking any Snapple because it just does not taste that good. In addition, Snapple is a New York bases company competing against New England based companies like VeryFine, Ocean Spray, and Nantucket Nectar. Back in the day Veryfine Fruit punch used to be my fruit juice of choice. It tasted good and even better I was able to get it for the cost of 1 Curtis Jackson at the Perkins School for the Blind vending machine. But then the unthinkable happened; VeryFine stopped packing their products in glass bottles or cans and switched to plastic bottles. Everyone and their brother knows that fruit juices don’t taste good out of plastic bottles. I was without a solid go to juice provider until Nantucket Nectar came along with great taste, a variety of flavors, and of course glass bottles. What is interesting about Nantucket Nectar is the variety of prices I have seen for a bottle. It is only a $1.19 at Johnny’s Superfresh on Beacon Street in Brookline and at Russo’s in Watertown. At Au Bon Pan’s in Boston it cost $2.09 and at the Au Bon Pan in Penn Station in NYC it cost $2.19. At the Watertown Store 24s and the Kenmore one it cost $1.59, but at the Copley Store 24 it is $1.49. At the newly opened Café Cakes in Watertown Square it is 2.09.
