About Hawaiian Punch
Hawaiian Punch is a fruit punch flavored beverage brand owned by Keurig Dr Pepper, sold in ready-to-drink jugs, pouches, and concentrate formats at grocery chains and mass retailers across the US. It is positioned as a fruit punch beverage for children but contains minimal actual fruit juice. Hawaiian Punch is banned from sale at Whole Foods Market.
Common concerns with Hawaiian Punch products
Hawaiian Punch Fruit Juicy Red contains Red 40 and Blue 1 as the primary synthetic dyes giving it its distinctive red color, along with high-fructose corn syrup, potassium sorbate as a preservative, sucralose, and artificial flavors. Whole Foods Market bans Hawaiian Punch from its shelves for containing HFCS, artificial colors, artificial flavors, sucralose, and potassium sorbate. The combination of multiple synthetic dyes plus artificial sweeteners in a children's beverage is a significant additive concern.
