I read on a Snapple cap that 100% of Snapple facts are true. For whatever that’s worth….

Snapple fact number 1, I believe, is the one about fish and their attention span.
Mythbusters proved that false.

@PretentiousArtist Thank you! That is entertaining. I always thought that goldfish thing was wrong, too! Mine would follow my finger and would come up to get “petted”

So, how do we tell true facts from false facts if they are both facts?

SpatzieLover's avatar

@pdworkin I guess now I’ll look at the caps as mere entertainment, and check out the “facts” if I’m interested.

@uberbatman Lurve! My goldfish used to swim at me when I came into the kitchen or went into the cabinet that I kept their food in…NOW I see I should trained ‘em ;D

There’s a nice list of incorrect ones on Snapple’s wikipedia entry.

I was so sure this was gonna be a question about whether it was true that Bin Laden’s family owns a Snapple franchise (which they do!)!

@filmfann joking? If not…link? scary!

@uberbatman If you read the entire page, you will see it says Osama bin Laden doesn’t own Snapple, but his family does have ownership of a company with distributing rights, which is what I said.

@filmfann i honestly didnt even read the whole article, I did see a bit saying how snapple cut ties with the Binladen Group distributors though.

Of course, everyone knows that 47.3% of statistics are made up on the spot.
