'''Snapple''' is a brand of iced tea and fruit drinks owned by [[Dr Pepper Snapple Group]] and based in [[Rye Brook, New York]]. The drinks are sold in [[glass]] bottles, soda-style cans, and [[plastic]] bottles. Snapple was founded by Hyman Golden, Arnold Greenberg and Leonard Marsh in [[Valley Stream, New York]] on [[Long Island]] in 1972. The word "Snapple" is derived from a carbonated apple soda.{{Fact|date=April 2008}} Currently, there are four different types of Snapple: '''[[Tea]]''' (Diet and Regular), '''[[Juice]] Drinks''', '''[[Lemonade]]''' as well as their own brand of '''[[bottled water]]'''.
Snapple's brand slogan is "Made from the best stuff on Earth."

==History==
Snapple first started in 1949 by the Espaillat Family in Moca, Dominican Republic then Hyman Golden, Arnold Greenberg and Leonard Marsh expanded Snapple brand in 1972.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.snapple.com/index.asp?Pageid=7&subid=7&contentid=7#2|title=http://www.snapple.com/index.asp?Pageid=7&subid=7&contentid=7#2}}</ref> Initially an apple [[Soft drink|soda]] was the single product offered, leading to the name Snapple. Some of Snapple's earliest expansions were to introduce new soda flavors in 16 ounce glass bottles. These flavors included French Cherry, Tru Rootbeer, Vanilla Creme, and Summer Peach. Soon, fruit drinks were introduced to health clubs and the company created the name The Unadulterated Food Corporation, later changing it to The Snapple Beverage Corporation.<ref>{{cite Somweb|url=http://www.twoop.com/food_drink/archives/2005/10/snapple.html|title=http://www.twoop.com/food_drink/archives/2005/10/snapple.html}}</ref> In 1987, the iced tea flavor was introduced and a year later the company expanded distribution into [[New England]] and California. [[Wendy Kaufman|Wendy the Snapple Lady]] was also introduced to the advertising team as a straight-talking, average, American spokesperson. After sales reached into the tens of millions and started quadrupling every year, the original founders sold the company to a Boston investment firm and the company went public.<!-- Deleted image removed: [[Image:Snapwrap.jpg|250px|thumb|right|Cactus Iced Tea Snapple label, a flavor of Snapple that has been retired]] --> In 1997, Triarc acquired [[Snapple Beverages]] from [[Quaker Oats]], which had bought the company from [[leveraged buyout]] firm [[Thomas H. Lee Partners]] in 1994. Quaker sold Snapple to Triarc for $300 million, a fraction of the price it had paid just three years earlier. Triarc reintroduced [[Wendy Kaufman|Wendy the Snapple Lady (Wendy Kaufman)]], who had been terminated by [[Quaker Oats]]. <ref name="nyt">{{cite news |first=Laura M. |last=Holson |authorlink= |coauthors= |title=Cadbury to Pay $1.45 Billion For Snapple |url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9805EEDC163BF93BA2575AC0A9669C8B63 |work=New York Times |publisher=New York Times |date=2000-09-18 |accessdate=2008-06-18 }}</ref> The company was acquired by [[Cadbury Schweppes]] in 2000 and folded into [[Cadbury Schweppes Americas Beverages]] (now [[Dr Pepper Snapple Group]]) in early 2006.<ref name="nyt">{{cite news |first=Laura M. |last=Holson |authorlink= |coauthors= |title=Cadbury to Pay $1.45 Billion For Snapple |url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9805EEDC163BF93BA2575AC0A9669C8B63 |work=New York Times |publisher=New York Times |date=2000-09-18 |accessdate=2008-06-18 }}</ref> In 2006, a limited edition of Snapple named "Snapple Pie" hit stores. Also in 2006, Snapple introduced "Snapple Asian Tea", "Snapple Green Tea", and "Snapple Red Tea", while 2007 brought about "Snapple Black Tea" and Snapple "100% Natural" flavors such as kiwi-pear and orange-mangosteen.
==Advertising/Spokespersons==
In the early 1990s, radio commentator [[Rush Limbaugh]] was used as a celebrity endorser, as was [[Howard Stern]].
In 1993 [[Wendy Kaufman]], an employee for the Snapple corporation, was recruited to be the commercial spokesperson for the drink...partly because she liked to answer letters about products written to the company. Kaufman's advertisements centered around her reading letters out loud and delivering comedic responses. Kaufman was dubbed "The Snapple Lady." The commercials ran until 1994 when she was unceremoniously fired from the company, upon the company's sale to Quaker Oats for $1.7 Billion.<ref name=gross01>Daniel Gross, [http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/opinion/la-op-gross4mar04,1,2440265,print.story Starbucks' 'venti' problem], ''Los Angeles Times'', March 4, 2007.</ref> Quaker Oats then sold Snapple for $300 million to Triarc, which reinstated Kaufman as the Snapple Lady in 1997.<ref name=gross01>Daniel Gross, [http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/opinion/la-op-gross4mar04,1,2440265,print.story Starbucks' 'venti' problem], ''Los Angeles Times'', March 4, 2007.</ref> In 2008, Kaufman was released from all formal assocation with Snapple when she did not accept a contract renewal, the terms of which Kaufman contends were completely unacceptable.<ref>Interview on the Jake Hartford Show, WCPT-AM, July 5, 2008.</ref>

===Elements===
In 1999, Snapple released a set of drinks under the "'''Elements'''" brand. These new drinks have names based on nature, and are marketed as all natural energy drinks. The original bottles were made from clear glass, but they now come in aluminum bottles. They also have amounts of [[Vitamin B]], [[Caffeine]], [[Ginseng]], and [[Taurine]].

===Discontinued Flavors===
According to Snapple's website, there are 69 discontinued Snapple flavors, many of which were part of unsuccessful franchises such as: Snapple Sodas, Refreshers, and Seltzers. These discontinued flavors include Cactus Tea, Sun Tea, Mint Tea, Sweet Tea, Strawberry Tea, Pink Grapefruit (part of a line of 100% juice drinks), Grape Watermelon, Blueberry Tea, Ralph's Cantaloupe Cocktail, Bali Blast, Samoan Splash (all four were regular juice drinks) and diet Mango Madness. Snapple sodas were popular in the northeast US from 1983 until they were discontinued in the late-1990s because they were believed to give headaches {{Fact|date=April 2008}} . The sodas came in a glass bottle with a metal (later a plastic) cap and included such flavors as Clear Cola (similar to [[Crystal Pepsi]] but marketed years before), Diet Lemon Lime, Ginger Ale, Jamaican Ginger Beer, Kiwi Peach, Passion Supreme, Peach Melba, Raspberry Royale, Strawberry, Cherry Lime Rickey, Kiwi Strawberry,
French Cherry, Creme d'Vanilla, Creme d'Chocolate, and Tru Root Beer (the latter three were clear). The last six are not mentioned on Snapple's list of 68 discontinued flavors, which means there are actually at least 74 discontinued flavors. The only soda to survive as a regular drink is Kiwi Strawberry, which is currently sold in a non-carbonated form.
In 2000, Snapple Jelly Beans were produced for a few years, until discontinuation.
==Health concerns==
Most of the Snapple products contain [[high-fructose corn syrup]].<ref name="slogan">{{cite web|url=http://www.nutraingredients-usa.com/news/ng.asp?id=73363-cadbury-schweppes-hfcs-natural|title=http://www.nutraingredients-usa.com/news/ng.asp?id=73363-cadbury-schweppes-hfcs-}}</ref> For example, one bottle of the Snapple juice drink "Cranberry Raspberry" contains 2 servings of 27 grams of sugar (54 grams) -- because the nutrition facts are based on 8 oz (50% bottle) instead of 16 oz. All of the glass bottles of Snapple present the nutrition information this way. <ref>[http://www.snapple.com/index.asp?Pageid=1&subid=1b&contentid=1b_product_detail&catid=2&ProdID=11&title=Cranberry%20Raspberry Snapple Premium Teas and Juice Drinks: Made from the Best Stuff on Earth<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref><ref>[http://www.dietfacts.com/html/nutrition-facts/snapple-cranberry-raspberry-fruit-juice-drink-2643.htm Snapple Cranberry Raspberry nutrition information - Food Labels - DietFacts.com<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> The amount of sugar is nearly the same as (and sometimes, greater than) that of soda<ref name=nytimessnapple>[http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?sec=health&res=9C07EED9173AF934A2575AC0A9659C8B63 The Snapple Deal: How Sweet It Is - New York Times<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>.
Additionally, Diet Snapple products contain [[aspartame]], an artificial sweetener that has raised [[Aspartame controversy| health concerns]].
==Snapple and education==
In October 2003, Snapple began its sponsorship of the [[New York City]] school system. Snapple [[vending machines]] were placed ubiquitously -- and exclusively -- throughout schools in the City. Snapple was able to acquire the contract in part because New York City officials did not want to encourage the consumption of [[Soft drink|soda]]s, which have been linked to childhood [[obesity]] and are generally considered unhealthy. The Snapple juices are marketed under the 100% Juiced label. The flavors available under this brand include Green Apple, Fruit Punch, Melon Berry, Grape, Orange Mango, and Strawberry Lime. The juice drinks are fortified with vitamins and minerals. However, they still contain more sugar (41 grams) than a 12-ounce container of [[Coca Cola]] (39 grams).<ref name=nytimessnapple>[http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?sec=health&res=9C07EED9173AF934A2575AC0A9659C8B63 The Snapple Deal: How Sweet It Is - New York Times<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
The deal also gave Snapple exclusive rights to sell its drinks in vending machines on all New York City properties starting in January 2004. Snapple paid the City $106 million for the rights and agreed to spend $60 million more to marketing and promotion over the length of the five-year contract{{Fact|date=April 2007}}.
==Snapple Caps==
{{Refimprovesect|date=September 2007}}
Snapple is also known for putting alleged facts on the inside of the [[bottle cap]]s. Each "Real Fact" (as they are called) is available on their website.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.snapple.com/index.asp?Pageid=3&subid=3&contentid=3 |title=Snapple.com Real Facts |accessdate=2007-09-20 |format= |work= }}</ref>
It is easy to recognize the different varieties because each type of drink has a differently colored cap:
*'''Teas:''' Blue caps
*'''Diets:''' White caps
*'''Juice drinks:''' Green caps
*'''Lemonades:''' Yellow caps
*'''Special Contests:''' Red caps, Silver caps
*'''White Teas:''' Silver caps
*'''Red/Green Teas:''' Brushed metal colored caps
=== Incorrect facts ===
Several of the facts on Snapple caps have been found to be incorrect or out of date, including:
* #1 "A goldfish's attention span is three seconds." This theory was tested by [[Discovery Channel|Discovery's]] ''[[MythBusters]]''. The experiment consisted of training several goldfish to complete a maze. They concluded that a [[Goldfish#Memory | goldfish's attention span and memory retention]] lasts well over 3 seconds.
* #5 "Camels have three eyelids". In fact they have six (three per eye).
* #31 “The average human will eat an average of eight spiders while sleeping.” This statistic was made up in 1993 as an example of the absurd things people will believe simply because they come across them on the internet, as uncovered by [[Snopes]]<ref>[http://www.snopes.com/science/stats/spiders.asp]</ref>.
* #36 "A duck's quack doesn't echo" Tested by [[Snopes]] and Mythbusters. Both tests concluded that a duck's quack does echo but is hard to distinguish. <ref>

* #77 "No piece of paper can be folded in half more than 7 times." This myth was put to the test by the [[Discovery Channel]] show ''[[MythBusters]]'', which folded a piece of paper 11 times. The piece of paper used in ''[[MythBusters]]'' was an oversized piece of paper and thinner than a standard 8.5"x11" inch piece of paper.<ref>[http://www.tv.com/mythbusters/underwater-car/episode/941361/trivia.html MythBusters: Underwater Car Episode Trivia - TV.com<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>

* #383 "Mount Katahdin in Maine is the first place in the U.S. to get sunlight each morning." According to the [[National Park Service]], [[Cadillac Mountain]] is the first place in Maine to see the sunrise during the winter, while [[Mars Hill]] is the first in the summer. The difference between sunrises on Cadillac, Mars Hill, and in [[Lubec, Maine]] - the easternmost town in the [[United States]] - is generally less than one-half second.
== Rumours and Myths==
Like many popular brands, Snapple has had urban myths and false rumors occasionally plague its brand. In 1992, rumors began to spread that Snapple was a supporter of the [[Ku Klux Klan]] and [[Operation Rescue]]. The reasoning for this was the portrayal of a ship from the Boston Tea Party, which was mistakenly believed to actually be a slave ship.
Snapple also fell victim to the old rumor that the small "K" was either a representation of the Klan, or of an imagined "[[Kosher tax|Jewish Tax]]" (augmented by the fact that all three founders were Jewish). The "K" on the products actually meant that they were certified [[kosher]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.snapple.com/index.asp?Pageid=7&subid=7&contentid=7#8|title=http://www.snapple.com/index.asp?Pageid=7&subid=7&contentid=7#8}}</ref>
Snapple initially tried to quell these rumors quietly, but ultimately had to launch a media campaign to squash them, pointing out it would be bad for business to support controversial issues in such a way as the rumors implied. Through a media campaign with the [[NAACP]], Snapple successfully fought back these rumors, although occasionally they are still brought up as fact.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.snopes.com/rumors/snapple.htm|title=http://www.snopes.com/rumors/snapple.htm}}</ref>
==In popular culture==
*The [[NBC]] comedy show [[30 Rock]] features intentionally flagrant promotion of Snapple in the episode [[Jack-tor]] as a parody of "product integration". Careful viewing of the credits shows that Snapple does, in fact, give promotional consideration to the show.
*Rapper [[The Game (rapper)|The Game]] references Belvedere Vodka and the Snapple flavor Go Bananas as his drink of choice in the title track of his second album, [[Doctor's Advocate]].
*Alternative [[hip-hop]] group [[Digable Planets]] references Snapple numerous times on their 1993 album, [[Reachin' (A New Refutation of Time and Space)]].
*Comedian [[Mike Birbiglia]] references Snapple in one of his acts, saying that if the drug dealers outside of his house sold Snapple, they would get a lot of business from him.
*In the animated show, [[The Boondocks]], Huey calls Snapple "The White Man's Poison" because [[High_fructose_corn_syrup#Health_effects|high fructose corn syrup]] is used as an ingredient.
*In an episode of HBO's [[The Sopranos]], the character Bobby Baccala tells his overweight son to "lay off the Snapple." The Soprano family are also often seen drinking Snapple.
*In an episode of NBC's [[Seinfeld]], entitled The Visa, Elaine offers Babu's brother a Snapple to which he replies, "No. Too fruity." During the fourth season, in which this episode appears, various other characters are offered Snapple, the repetition of the word becoming a small running joke.
*In the tv series [[Roswell]] ([[Roswell High]]), one of the four alien main characters, [[Michael Guerin]], is fired from his job as a security guard for stealing bottles of Peach Snapple.
*Rapper [[Ras Kass]] references the brand on "Anything Goes," off of his debut album, [[Soul on Ice]].
*Snapple is one of the constant pop-culture references in the first part of the novel [[Glamorama]] by [[Bret Easton Ellis]].
*In her video "I'm F*cking [[Matt Damon]]", comedienne [[Sarah Silverman]] sings the line "I'm F*cking Matt Damon / While you're drinking Diet Snapple" and holds up a can of the beverage.
== Snapple Theater Center ==
In 2006, Snapple opened the [[Snapple Theater Center]] on 50th street and [[Broadway (Manhattan)|Broadway]] in the heart of [[New York City]]'s theater district. It has two theaters, one of which is a traditional theater, the other a thrust stage which can house plays. The center also includes a 40x50ft rehearsal space which is available for rent. The theaters are considered [[Off-Broadway]] because of their low seating capacities.
