Gee, where do we begin with this product? Well, let's start with the obvious: appearance. A black colored glass product that's shaped like a WWII pineapple grenade -- complete with pin -- isn't exactly the best of ideas in this day and age. For your own safety, it might not be best to carry or open this product in any public place that has armed security. As far as the taste, this product suffers from the same bitterness that we noticed in the berry variety, but the sweetness is a little more intense, thus making the drink somewhat more palatable. Unfortunately, the tasteless – if not ridiculously shortsighted -- nature of the packaging wipes out any sense of refreshment that one might have from the formula. In reality, this is one of those shock-value products that will join the ranks of the Sum Poosie's and Lava Gina’s, etc., whose only merit is in their ability to offend. Selling one oddball container to consumers for use on their bookshelves is not the road to success.
