Yellow or Green? The Gatorade Conundrum

-

Have you seen the Lemon-Lime Gatorade? What do you call it? Personally, I think it is yellow but is that what your classmates think?

This poll will end the controversy about the color of the lemon-lime Gatorade.

Gatorade Flavor in Question

Background

Earlier this week, Seniors all across the courtyard were asking each other one simple question: “What color is the lemon-lime Gatorade?” Everyone was sure they had the right answer.

“It’s obviously yellow,” said senior Connor McSorley.

“Nah it’s green,” exclaimed Antonio Vela ’22.

All over campus, this question drove students crazy. Nobody knew the right answer, yet everyone was so sure.

Even the underclassmen got involved. All of them trying to showcase their opinion on this great debate. All of them fighting to come up with the right answer.

The debate still rages on, seniors with their bright phones out, rush to fellow classmates, asking them one simple question: Yellow or Green?

Photoshop proved to no avail. The color dropper failed to identify the color of the mystery liquid fueling a conspiracy. Will we find an answer? Nobody knows.

Even among The Roundup, there is dissent.

“It’s yellow, anyone who says differently is wrong,” the Managing Editor, Ajay Bhavan said. Now tell me, has a news source ever lied to the public?

Another twist to this story is the fact that Gatorade has been silent since this controversy was sparked. Officially, it is listed as yellowish-green, skirting the main question.

The real question that must be asked is, what color is the lemon-lime Gatorade? That, my fellow readers, is why we need you to fill out this poll to identify a definitive answer to this puzzle.
