Untitled
Prehaps the part about the football team should be moved to its own artice with a simple acknowelege in this one? - Defunctzombie 22:33, 18 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, definitely move it, but make disambiguation page listing both. Gekritzl 23:23, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Not sure if this is relevant or notable enough to mention, but the band Barenaked Ladies had an early song called 'Careless,' which included the line, "What're the five fruits in Five Alive juice?" Later in the song, this is answered with "Apples, cheese, broccoli, pimento, and piglet." --Patteroast 11:23, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
 * If they had written an entire song about Five Alive, maybe, but the fact that they just mentioned is not noteworthy.--Nonpareility 16:12, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Why not mention it in a "References in Popular Culture" section or something like that?

Not a source of vitamine c?
I find the nutritional info confusing, how can something that is a mixture of citrus juices have no vitamin c? I checked line #2 of the references and it say 60% of your daily vitamin c, isn't this significant?
 * Only the frozen concentrate has vitamin C (most likely an additive). I did a double take when I read the can for the first time, and was shocked to see no vitamin C. QBasicer 13:50, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Main ingredient?
I'm lazy to research the history but I removed the extremely dumb claim that HFCS was its main ingredient. The source says nothing of that sort and it is clearly not the case. Water is quite obviously its main ingredient. (Can you imagine how sweet it would be if HFCS was its main ingredient?) It has HFCS as a sweetener, flavours and juice concentrates Nil Einne (talk) 10:48, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

'Mango'?
Just .... Mango?

Should we remove this, then? 193.63.174.10 (talk) 11:32, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Removed POV
I changed the phrasing on the ingredients section. Reading the talk page, it seems there's someone intent on making some point about the HFCS content in Five Alive. Having five fruits on the label is not any indication of the juice content; think about all the juices that have negligible fruit juice yet display fruits on their labels. If anything, having a 41-42% fruit juice content is uncommonly high for a reasonably-priced juice beverage. --Genya Avocado (talk) 02:12, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
