# Slurp Juice Slurp Juice is an Astro Ape NFT accessory that became a Twitter copypasta in May 2022, after Rare Candy IO tried to clarify that ape holders could combine multiple slurp juices with a single ape. Readers found the sentence so absurd they parodied it for two days straight, until Buzzfeed News and Input Magazine linked the project to racist edgelord accounts. ## Origin The original tweet went up on May 3rd, 2022, from the Rare Candy IO account, which was promoting that evening's Slurp Juice mint event for its Astro Ape holders[2]. The full text read, "a lotta yall still dont get it. ape holders can use multiple slurp juices on a single ape. so if you have 1 astro ape and 3 slurp juices you can create 3 new apes. Tonight's slurp juice mint event is essentially a minting event for both Lab Monkes and Special Forces"[2]. According to Know Your Meme, that post picked up more than 210 retweets, 400 quote tweets and 280 likes inside 24 hours, almost entirely because people were laughing at it rather than buying juices[5]. Rarecandy.io itself hosted both the Astro Ape and Slurp Juice collections, priced in the Bitcoin Satoshi Vision alt-coin, with items ranging from roughly $200 to $3,500 or more[3]. - **Platform:** Twitter - **Creator:** Rare Candy IO (@rarecandyio) - **Date:** 2022 ## Overview At its core, Slurp Juice is a line of NFT consumables tied to the Astro Ape collection sold on Rarecandy.io, where combining one juice with one ape mints a new ape such as a Lab Monke or a Special Forces unit[1]. What turned the product name into a meme was the earnest, lowercase explainer tweet from the Rare Candy IO account, which read like it was translating a game manual into customer-service English and only made the concept sound more ridiculous[2]. Quote-tweets of the original post reused its exact math problem structure, swapping apes and juices for unrelated nouns to mock the overserious tone of NFT marketing[3]. Riffs ranged from the Katie Notopoulos "30-50 slurp juices" mash-up with 30-50 Feral Hogs to a Seinfeld-themed rewrite by @stepheniscowboy, both leaning on how clinical the sentence sounds when read aloud[4][5]. Within days, Input Magazine traced the Rare Candy IO account to what it called a web of crypto-fascist sympathizers, and the joke effectively died once the association became public knowledge[3]. ## How to Use A typical Slurp Juice riff reuses the "so if you have 1 X and 3 Y you can create 3 new X" math-problem cadence, often with the deadpan lowercase phrasing of the original. People commonly keep the opening "a lotta yall still dont get it" clause intact and change only the nouns, since that first line is what signals the reference. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What is Slurp Juice?
