The carbonated beverages will be available in lemon lime, green apple, sweet orange, and hot dog flavours.
Is 7-Eleven's Big Bite Hot Dog sparkling water an April Fool's joke?
In a news release on March 27, 7-Eleven described its latest hot dog-flavoured sparkling water as “a twist on one of 7-Eleven’s most beloved snacks, the Big Bite Hot Dog.” The company explained that the unusual flavour “combines the delicious and mouthwatering experience of 7-Eleven’s iconic Big Bite Hot Dog into one refreshing beverage – ketchup and mustard included.”
7-Eleven's statement further went on to say, “Gone are the days of alternating bites of a hot dog with sips of a beverage, now those on the go can swap the bun for bubbles.” Given the odd product description and vague details on how to purchase the Big Bite Hot Dog sparkling water, netizens believe it to be an “April Fools' prank.”
