Holy crap, look at the massive Capri Sun Big Pouch

Is one Capri Sun never enough in your household? This upscaled pouch can hold 24 ounces of juice.

If your kid is like mine, they can down a Capri Sun in like ten seconds. At that point, they’ll ask for another pouch. And while we do have a healthy stash of Capri Suns in our fridge, it’s always a hassle to go get another one. (At least our daughter knows how to punch the straw through the pouch on her own.)

But what if there was a solution to this problem? What if there were a bigger pouch? You could even call something like that the Capri Sun Big Pouch ...

Clocking in at a whopping three times the size of the standard Capri Sun pouch, the Big Pouch stands at 9 inches tall and 6 inches wide. Unlike those wimpy regular Capri Sun pouches that can only hold 6 ounces, the Capri Sun Big Pouch is ready to deliver 24 ounces of cold, refreshing Capri Sun.

The cost

The Capri Sun Big Pouch will cost you $6, going live on Walmart’s website beginning Sept. 21, with limited drops between then and Sept. 24. Each pouch comes with a coupon good toward the purchase of actual Capri Sun to put in the Big Pouch.

The thoughts

OK, so a few caveats when it comes to the Capri Sun Big Pouch. Yes, it’s a very large Capri Sun pouch complete with a bigger version of that classic yellow straw, but the Capri Sun Big Pouch does not come filled with Capri Sun.

When it comes to the Capri Sun Big Pouch, juice is sold separately.

For this test of the Big Pouch, I received a 64-ounce bottle of Capri Sun Strawberry Kiwi. I opened up the Big Pouch, which can zip closed at the top, punched the straw through first, and then proceeded to fill the sucker up from that bottle of Capri Sun.

There’s something very satisfying but also kind of terrifying about having that much Capri Sun in a single pouch. A 24-ounce serving of Capri Sun goes a long way — but it’s also a massive threat to just about every rug and couch in our home.

If you have a Capri Sun-loving kid, though, absolutely try to buy one of these when they go on sale on Monday. Our daughter thought it was the coolest thing, and I definitely broke the illusion when I showed her the bottle of Capri Sun in the fridge. For the record, though, I gave her the regular-sized pouch of Capri Sun Strawberry Kiwi to enjoy. I wasn’t ready to let the Big Pouch wander our house.
