Offhand I think "grape" is my least-favorite artificial flavor of all time, but lookie there-- that's a rather pleasant photo!

Maybe because it sort of balances secondary colors of purple, green, and off-oranges.

Can you imagine how much photoshopping work it took to get that hue? And photoshop was probably only available in black and white at the time.

Photoshop was literally a photography shop back then, with some scissors, paint brushes, paste, and another camera.
