Tropical strawberry?

[fbhjr]

Things that are supposed to be “Tropical Flavored” should not have strawberry in it.
It’s just not tropical. I think they’re just being cheap. “We’ve got a ton of strawberry flavoring, what should we do with it?” “Pour it in, no one will care!”
Mango, banana, even oranges I could take as tropical.
But not strawberry.



I should point out I only posted this at Nate’s request. There are only 3 (maybe 4) people who would know why he and I think it’s funny.
But, that’s pretty good compared to most of the jokes I post here.
As I said to him the other day, “Things might go better if I could keep my mouth shut and not make stupid jokes. But, I just can’t." So there it is. He and I can laugh. Holly will frown. No one else will have a clue.

Oh, but I can imagine.

I agree, strawberry is overused as a flavor...Isn't it because it's such an easy flavor to create?

maybe it's because of the word - straw...maybe there's a visual the marketers are going for, for festive straw sunhats you wear in a tropical setting...And berry, well berry sounds tasty. Yeah it's a stretch. But covering for marketers is hard to do ya know.

Unlike the others, there isn't going to be a friends only explanation of the joke.
So, you've got to figure it out on your own.
Ha! That will teach you! No strawberry for you!

But what about things that are flavored "Red"?

If they marked it "tropical red" I wouldn't have minded.
After all, there is red in the tropics...



Well, that made me laugh, how about you?
