    Matpat- everything is an animatronic Lee- everything is Ai Santi- everything is a lie
  • Done blue. Done red. Now I just need to know what in the world is grape-
  • @scruffy4473
    The way he pronounced Capri Sun nearly killed me 😭😭

    Quite a long time ago there was a Lawsuit between some parents and Caprisun. As a result of this lawsuit, Carpisun was forced to make the bottom of their packages clear. So when I was younger, I got some of these clear bottom packages and was surprised that basically all the flavors were clear. This made me wonder what other "juice" drinks that hid the color of the liquid looked like, and after pouring a bunch of different drinks into cups I learned that, if you can't see the juice drink without transferring it into a different container, then they don't bother to color it most of the time. So TLDR: I have known for years that most fruit punches aren't red.
  • @SparkyDragon
    The reveal of the fruit punch being blue in the Caprisun was amazing lol, their reactions were priceless!
  • @SBMTG
    I have never heard even a single person in my life pronounce Capri sun the way you do my man
  • @nonnnth
    4:45 You are so cancelled for saying mango has similar taste to papaya.
  • @g42_16
    santi pronouncing capri sun (ca-PRI sun) as CAP-ri SUN hurts my heart
  • @Yousefalr8
    Santi's beard is about to become just as iconic as matpat's jacket and his red colored food addiction correlates to mat's diet coke addiction

    14:52 ’thanks to humans collecting red berries’ Proceeds to show A Blackberry.

    Santi: "You know it, you love it, it's red," Me, who hasn't read the title: "Oh, Kool-Aid." Santi: "I'm talking about Fruit Punch." Me: "Oh..."

  • @taylorward2617
    I just find it funny that what pulled this all together was quite literally the cherry on top
  • @788evets
    12:56 is that the curse of the Food theorist? The iconic "Huh?" or am i high and it doesnt sound like MatPat?
  • Now, can you do Grape and Watermelon next? Banana has the whole backstory of it being flavored after a now extinct variety, but watermelons and grapes have very light tastes and dont taste nearly like their artificial counterparts
  • @bigredradish
    love how this is both a dissection of fruit punch and also a much-needed lesson on the power of trickshot editing
  • 11:09 "Because he is a.. master with the words. He has that Silver Tongue." So I guess you could say he's a Cunning Linguist?
  • @atlasllm
    absolutely new favorite episode; equal parts knowledge and experimentation, the continuation of "stankpat", and the utter shock in santi seeing all the fruit punches aren't even deep red
