Unsavory Palette / Palate

Only twice have we predicted the demise of a product based on its name and brand positioning; Song Airlines and Gap’s Forth and Towne. We are confidant that the inevitable failure of Crayons juice drinks will put our record at 3-0. On the surface the name seems plausible – crayons are fun and multi-colored, much like these fruit drinks. But we all have the visceral memory of chewing on a crayon as kids, and well, not good. The final nail is the fact that the juice is even using Crayola design cues. Ugh.
