Snapple is an American beverage brand founded in 1972 by Leonard Marsh, Hyman Golden, and Arnold Greenberg in Valley Stream, New York. Originally named Unadulterated Food Products, the company began by selling all-natural apple juice to health food stores before developing its signature line of flavored iced teas and juice drinks. Snapple gained national popularity in the late 1980s and early 1990s through grassroots marketing and its association with radio personalities like Howard Stern and Rush Limbaugh. The brand became famous for its 'Made from the Best Stuff on Earth' tagline and the 'Real Facts' printed inside its bottle caps. Snapple has had a turbulent ownership history, being acquired by Quaker Oats in 1994 for $1.7 billion in what is often cited as one of the worst corporate acquisitions in history. It was subsequently sold to Triarc Companies in 1997 for just $300 million. The brand later became part of Dr Pepper Snapple Group and is now owned by Keurig Dr Pepper. Headquartered within Keurig Dr Pepper's operations in Burlington, Massachusetts, Snapple continues to offer a wide range of iced teas and juice drinks that remain popular across the United States.
