![]() I’ve talked to people online and in real life who have blatantly admitted to never even having one sip of Ecto Cooler in their lives, some never even heard of it before. What’s even more remarkable about this whole thing is that it’s also reached kids and adults who weren’t even familiar with it, but they’ve since been indoctrinated into the legend. It’s obvious that not only Ghostbusters fans were ecstatic about the Ecto Cooler comeback, but basically everyone who was a kid in the late ’80s and early ’90s. The return of Ecto Cooler has meant so much to all of us. Often, the hunt is the best part, but in this case, the end result would be overwhelmingly satisfying. She didn’t have to twist my arm, I live for this shit. It was like they were peppered throughout the country with no rhyme or reason. At this point they were only getting discovered sporadically. As we were about to head home on the NJ Turnpike, Miss Sexy Armpit mentioned that maybe we could stop at a few ShopRites or random grocery stores on the way home to see if we run into any Ecto Cooler juice boxes. It was a fun albeit short visit which you can read about here. We had just left Six Flags Great Adventure. By the time you read this, you’ll probably have gulped down 3-4 cases of juice boxes already, but let me tell you about the night that I finally found them. And I pretty much did just that. Those color changing Ecto Cooler cans were procured on a wild goose chase that you can hear on a recent Purple Stuff Podcast, but the elusive juice boxes were still, well…eluding me. Ecto Cooler hasn’t been on store shelves in so long that having the opportunity to suck that ectoplazmic green elixir out of that beautifully retro Hi-C container is worth going to the ends of the earth for, or in my case, New Jersey. It makes sense though, it’s sort of similar to finding the fountain of youth. ![]() Adults traversing their entire state chasing down juice boxes is normal right? Who knew we’d be grown ass adults searching feverishly for a tiny box of green juice that we used to bring in our lunch boxes as kids.
