And You Thought The Yellow River Was In China

Yum-yum! Makes me want to go out and buy some Sunny D:

Around 8,000 litres of concentrate used to make the drink leaked into a watercourse on Wednesday morning, turning the river bright yellow.

Dozens of fish were found floating on the surface, poisoned by the lurid mixture.

Bottoms up!

Well, in this case it was their bellies...

I could never stand that stuff. Give me real juice, please.

Looks like the Jolly Green Giant was just a tad bit dehydrated there.......

Was there a vodka spill as well?

I thought all the rivers in Jesey were that color.

I had friends who just loved that stuff. Grown adult friends. I drank some to see what the big deal was. It tasted like liquified Johnson's Baby Aspirin. I think my friends may have done some bad drugs once.

While we do have some rivers that approach that color, John, we have the good sense to decorate them with 50 gallon drums. This scene is sadly lacking barrels, dang it!
