The Gerber Juice company which took over the UK operations of Sunny Delight Beverages from Procter and Gamble has launched a newer version of Sunny Delight in the UK.
The latest version is made with proper fruit juices(80%),no added sugar and no added artificial colours or sweetners. This is a good move for a brand/product that gained a bad reputation! And beats Robinsons and Fanta as it has more fruit juice and no sweetners or added sugar.
In 2006 they brought out a version which had less sugar and less crazy ingredients, the orginal Sunny Delight when it came out had Vegetable oil in it!!!! What the hell was that for because it didnt harm the flavour without it!
And that story will always make me laugh when that stupid girl turned Orange, she was 4 years old and her mother gave her nearly 14 litres of Sunny Delight in a 24 to 36 hour period, she turned orange because she had a high intake of the natural colouring (Beta-Caratene) which is found in most orange coloured drinks including Robinsons and Fanta, apparently its formed from oranges and carrots and is a rich source of vitamin A. Everything should be done in moderation, they where stupid to give a child that much anyway!
After visiting the American site, the drink hasnt improved much at all. No lessons learnt there! And the French version is just the same as the American one!
I wonder why those countries dont complain about the high sugar content ect..... like they did here? Thought the french would be! lol
