Well that was fun! Sorry if I caused any big concern with anybody. But in finding out the truth, and having had the possibility of a beloved company switching course in such a way, I imagine you’re even more glad it’s still alive and kicking.

Considering the fact that I have hundreds of Capri Sun pouches from my local school sitting in my dining room waiting to be sent to Terracycle, this is pretty funny.

I’m sad to hear that. I wish grassroots locally based businesses could survive and thrive while staying grassroots and local.

I’ve been in touch with their publicist Albe Zakes who said that by 9:30a their time, they’d gotten 3 phone calls and 4 concerned emails. I thought I’d filled it with enough BS to be sniffed out. Oops! As I said to Albe, any publicity is good publicity.
