While getting a few groceries the other day, I saw this:
I understand there are some pretty dense people out there, but do we really need to stoop this low? I mean, I think it's pretty evident even to an infant what juice is without having to label it as a "beverage".
What stupid things have you seen lately?

Imagine the other options it could say "Apple Juice main course", "Apple Juice appetizer"...
I bet there were directions on the back of the bottle about how to drink it, too!
Stupidity? Oh, I must be too used to it around me to notice anything glaring.
Maybe it wasn't pure juice.
Seriously. I fuckin' love Hannaford. (oops I swore)
But look at it this way: it has 3 guiding stars and you really can't get any better than that.
Well, at Hannaford anyways ;-)
Can't be too careful, people will drink anything. Have a look at this
That's Hannaford for ya!
You never know. Although I'm sure it was in the beverage aisle.
P.S. Your masthead is the shit.
That's just plain dumb,isn't it? I love that you took a picture of it! lol!
They have to write that, because there's probably no apple juice in it whatsoever. Of all the grocery stores I hate, they're the worst!
It's apple juice beverage because it's not 100% juice, so they can't call it apple juice.
It's like how they actually call american cheese "cheese food." Because it's not actually cheese.
100% juice is cheap enough that most people who can afford to buy juice at all, can choose that over "almost juice" every time, so I don't know why they even bother. If it says juice "drink" that's an indicator too that it isn't 100% juice.
Maybe they're implying that its gots something more than juice in it. Booze maybe???
Moonspun: That's what I was thinking, too. "Set glass on counter. Remove cap from bottle. Pour slowly."
Kat: It probably wasn't.
Jenn(ifer): Hannaford is a pretty bitchin' place.
Single Parent Dad: That is just wrong. And pathetic. And wrong.
The Social Frog: It sure is.
X: One of many beverage aisles, yes. And thank you!
Bee and Rose: A man's gotta have something to do while the wife is comparing the price per pound on two types of cereal.
Lola: Hannaford is one of the only grocery stores around here. I kinda have to deal.
Miss Grace: It's not?
Heather: I know. It's just silly how they label it.
Cape Cod Gal: That'd be nice. I'm not sure what I'd like in my apple juice, though. Maybe a shot of Hot Damn.
