Kool Aid Poll!
 
I just had to get in on this poll fad. ;)

I think he's cherry.

tynan88 05-02-2005 06:19 AM

Sorry but what is KoolAid I have heard the name begore but what is it?

irishgrl 05-02-2005 06:41 AM

its a flavored powder you add sugar and water to, to make a sweet drink with.
its mascot is a big glass picture with a face on it.http://images-partners.google.com/im...laidbobble.jpg

tynan88 05-02-2005 06:44 AM

Haha i dunno but my initial thought would be raspberry not cherry.

skcin 05-02-2005 07:56 AM

Cherry. Definitely cherry. :D

I don't think the essence of the Kool Aid Man can truly be defined.

When I was a kid, we had this awesome plastic Kool Aid Man shaped pitcher, and some little cups. I want one now. *off to eBay*

Me, too. :thumbsup:

I had Kool Aid Man sippie cups to go along with the Kool Aid Man pitcher.

DrummerDeanna 05-02-2005 09:16 AM

Um - you didn't put the best flavor on the polll...

GRAPE!!!!

I can't drink the stuff now - but as a kid!?! Man oh man....the more sugary the better for me...I used to basically drink Kool Aid and Tang goo because I wanted it SO damn sweet - I'm amazed that A) I still have teeth and B) that I don't weight 500 pounds...

amber 05-02-2005 10:52 AM

Yep, Deanna, i can't believe he left off Grape!!! GRAPE!!! :] although, of course, I wasn't allowed to have Kool Aid as a kid. Had quite the little addiction going my first semester of college, though. "Hey, I'm on my own now, what better way to live it up then to drink sugar water?" :laugh:

hayley 05-02-2005 10:55 AM

Uh, he left off grape because the Kool-Aid Man is clearly red? And grape is dark purple?

I always hated grape. I was a cherry or lemonade fan.

I was more of a Tang kid when I was little....my aunt and unlce ALWAYS had Tang at their house lol...so I used to drink a lot of it---then when my mom would buy me my own Tang mix? Well I'd eat spoon fulls of the sugar powder lol....

I seriously can't believe I still have teeth :laugh:

xdreamsunwindx 05-02-2005 11:00 AM

Kool Aid is the best stuff ever. I drink it all the time, and use it as a haircolour. It's awesome. :thumbsup:

I seriously can't believe I still have teeth :laugh:

:laugh: :lol: me neither. I was more of a "water" kid, or a "milk" kid. Occasionally an "orange juice" or "apple juice" one. :rolleyes:

ontheEdgeof17 05-02-2005 11:06 AM

Fruity stuff breaks out my chin and around my lips. :( It looks pretty, though.

lol - water!?! What kind of weird ass kid likes water!?! :laugh: I'm kidding...

My mom was pretty lax..I LOVED soda and anything that wasn't water or milk - unless, of course, the milk had lots of chocolate powder in it - or the water had lots of colored sugar in it :laugh:

GypsySorcerer 05-02-2005 11:09 AM

I never drank much Kool-Aid. I drank Hi-C like my life depended on it, though. :laugh:

The kind of kid who's mom says "drink some god damn water if you're thirsty!" :laugh:
sometimes we got chocolate milk. It was good, I ate the powder. :D

Okay - I know...I used to HATE when my mom did that....I'd say, "I'm thirsty" knowing there was soda or something bad nearby and she'd say, "drink some water..." grrr.....lol...I'm so glad I'm no longer a kid :D

Of course now I can't drink any of that stuff - except for Chocolate milk, which I still enjoy from time to time....

Now I'm all about the Crystal Light lol and diet soda lol...

Do you remember the Ghostbusters Ecto Cooler? I used to love that stuff, partly because I thought it looked like pee.

Christ, this is weird. You had a Kool Aid Man pitcher like me and you drank Ghostbusters Ecto Cooler, too. That **** was divine. I had Ghostbusters Ecto Plasm slime, too. :laugh: My grandmother put tons of Ecto Plasm canisters in my stocking one Christmas; I had all the colors.

ryan8472 05-02-2005 01:25 PM

Ecto Coolers were the best drinks ever. :nod:

I remember those! I used to stick them on my sister's forehead. :nod: :laugh:

Do they still make Ecto Coolers? I wish they did...

wondergirl9847 05-02-2005 01:34 PM

Yum!!
 
Cherry!! I haven't drank Kool-Aid in God knows how long! I need to get me some. :nod:

Ahem...it's not colored water, it's colored SUGAR water. :rolleyes:

:laugh:

CreepingDeath 05-02-2005 02:41 PM

The Kool-Aid man is definitely cherry. Sheesh. :rolleyes:

One of my friends had the cups and pitcher shaped like him. I was so jealous of them too.

DrummerDeanna 05-02-2005 02:55 PM

OH!!

I'm an idiot.....

I thought the poll was what your favorite kind of Kool Aid is :rolleyes:

I'm dumb lol.....so yeah - he's Cherry - :laugh:

I seriously can't believe I still have teeth :laugh:

when I was a kid (back in the dark time) WE used to eat jello out of the box. we'd pour it in our hands and eat it dry :] it was good!

btw: koolaid as hair color, that really surprised me but when I saw the neat teals and turquoises and pretty fuschias I was a convert! :nod:

I also ate Nestles Quick out of the can/box. In fact, I used to eat the cake mix before I added the eggs and liquid, I'd shake the bowl and make all the big lumps rise to the top and eat those puppies! One time, I ate so much that I had to add Nestles to the cake mix to make up for all I had eaten! Im surprised my mom let me in the kitchen :laugh: One thing I wasnt crazy about tho was that DANG OVALTINE! That stuff was NASTY! In my house, it was a law of nature, if I liked something it was gone in a flash, if I didnt, it sat around until it got moldy. I saved my mom the humiliation of leftover leftovers MANY a time...I was the guinea (sp?) pig on her "experiments" too :laugh:

Grape is the worst Kool-Aid flavor evah! ;)

Man, we used to drink that stuff all the time when I was a kid too. I can't stand it now. bleghhhh

Oh, and I think Kool-Aid man is his very own special flavor
