What a cute ad!

Too bad there isn't a peach flavor, then we'd have "peachy Keen!"

I'll see myself out.

There should totally be a peachy Keen! What a missed opportunity!

Yeah why didn't they make a peachy keen? :P

Note that orange isn't imitation flavored. I guess it's because citric acid is really easy to make?

We never had that so I don't remember it (we used a powdered drink called Funny Face), but the Keen looks tasty and refreshing.

I think it's a variation on Kool-Aid is all :)

Looks like a cross between Kool-aid and Tang.

This cute ad devilishly plays to my weakness for color charts.

[tanwen.livejournal.com]

Color charts, yes! And those paint sample strips you get at Lowes!

[cionaudha.livejournal.com]

Oh yes! All of it! Even when I'm waiting at the dealership for my car to be healed I get a little fixated on this year's color chips. Don't even think of trying to walk me past the MAC counter without stopping to marvel.

I cry every night about the Pantone books and Munsell color tree I had at my disposal at my old job. Though in my new line o' study I do have access to the Munsell soil color books! Woo!

Ah Pantone books! i still get confused looks when I mention PMS.

It's simple, but still cute, happy, and colorful. And I agree with plumtreeblossom, Keen does look refreshing.

This ad makes me think of this song from the show Weird Science: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yqq1zOyXvZI

"She's mean! Drama Queen! She bruised my spleen... I think she's KEEEEENNN!!!"

Is Keen made from people or androids?
