The sweet relief of fire safety.

A red Kool-Aid branded fire extinguisher that says ‘very very cherry fire suppressant’ floating over a stylized firey background. Pictured: ‘very very cherry fire suppressant’ the top-selling fire extinguisher / flavour ignitor.

There was a short circuit in my janky time machine and some electronic components started to spark and and sizzle. Luckily there was an extinguisher nearby to avert certain disaster that would have left me stuck in gosh knows when.

In this future is appears that the Kool-Aid company fell on hard times at some point and let their trademark expire. One entrepreneurial mind at a fire safety supplier snapped it up and started producing branded fire extinguishers that got more than just the job done. Putting out fires while turning on the taste.
