The doesn't make me want orange juice at all. It looks like something you'd find in a 3rd world country sitting on a rusty bare shelf in a lukewarm cooler. The juice in the glass looks watered down and doesn't look cold or juicy.

Thanks, Joseph. Now I'm mad at Tropicana.

In this economic climate, more people will be going after the store brands, since they are historically cheaper than the name brands, so if Tropicana positions itself to be identified with the store brands, they could, in fact, end up bringing themselves more business by lowering their perceived worth! It's so crazy, it just might work! You might be right.

It's a sneaky move, but I'll be willing to bet that is their reason behind the poor design. Have you ever seen a store brand that had great design? Just a thought.
