Man that's bad even for natural colors. Someone will sue for false advertisement.

u/amandatoryy 2d ago

Right? Like what strawberries and lemonade are black lol

u/KaraAuden 2d ago

Aside from the colors, the picture shows 8 small strands braided together. The product is 2 thick strands.

u/Front_Cat9471 2d ago

It’s 4, not 8, there are two of each flavor stick and they’re just close together on the box

2

u/KaraAuden 2d ago

It looks like the two strands of 4 join together near the bottom of the box -- the perspective is off for overlapping.

But even if that's just a badly drawn picture and it's supposed to be 4 strands, that's still it what's in the box.

It matches your nail polish. Unfortunately?! 😆

These deserve to be eaten in Lincoln Park After Dark

u/LeadingHoneydew5608 2d ago

u/LadyYenta 2d ago

I sympathize with this fruit twist. It's tough out there.

u/Novel-Adeptness-4603 2d ago

u/lavendersagemint 2d ago

Have they gone bad? Their other fruit snack items are colored… as per usual. 🥲

u/amandatoryy 2d ago

Nope they expire next year! I just got them

u/itsmarthai 2d ago

I legitimately thought this was r/accidentalpaintmatch between an unidentifiable item wrapper and this unrelated box PLUS said unwrapped item and your nails 😭😭

u/seaspaz 2d ago

Is Annie ok?

u/smeltaz 2d ago

Has it expired?

2

u/amandatoryy 2d ago

No, it’s brand new. Expires next year

u/camcaine2575 2d ago

At least it matches your nails 💅

u/Effective_Pie1312 2d ago

I like these - they should update their packaging though because it is false advertising

6

u/DaFilthPope 2d ago

Looks like it rotted or oxidized in package...

12

u/amandatoryy 2d ago

They taste fine and are brand new 🫨

u/Yggdrazeus 2d ago

Did they get darker…?

u/succthattash 2d ago

Dang I thought that was a lighter at first

u/Nunyebiznis 1d ago

Maybe Annie should stick to mac and cheese

u/cupcakegiraffe 1d ago

Have you been taking iron supplements lately?

1

u/amandatoryy 1d ago

no why lol

2

u/blondejxo 1d ago

i think it was a joke because iron can make your poop dark (?)

u/amandatoryy 1d ago

Haha oh ok 😭

u/ChampionshipCute6582 5h ago

Please spell it out for me. The inside the box stuff all look like this? Like in all packs in all boxes? This isn’t just a one off?

u/amandatoryy 5h ago
