"fanta orange" news and stories

How could we have missed it?

Those catchy (some might say annoying) Fantanas are back with their fourth member for the "pop" group touting Fanta.

After nationwide auditions, Summer, Melody and Isabela (who knew they had names?) found their fourth Fantana in September in New Jersey. Her name is Shakira Barrera and she is assuming the role of the yellow pineapple Fantana for this girl supergroup that drinks only Fanta.

To kill time during the weekday a la "Elf Yourself," you too can be a Fantana. And if you're feeling Fanta-inspired, you aren't alone: behold Sanka "girls," the Fanta Halloween costume, Mario Batali's pants and the Fanta robots.

The Diet Blog has a list of the seven drinks that have the most sugar in them. I don't drink any of these (though I did go through a weird phase several years ago when I was drinking Sunkist Orange Drink all the time) because I drink diet soda and tea, and if I do have juice it's low-sugar orange juice or Ruby Red Light.

Sunkist Orange does make it on the list, at No. 4, with 87.5 grams of sugar in a 20 oz bottle (35 grams in the 8 oz). Other drinks on the list include Minute Maid Cranberry Grape and Sobe Adrenaline Rush. I'll let you click on the link above to find out what number one is.

Read what readers say at the link too, some interesting comments there.
