this must seem a very silly question to you, but as a viewer
of the german sync version of M*A*S*H there occurs the
question of the subject. Let me explain:
In the german version, Radar orders Grapefruit juice, but
the bottle he always gets contains rather dark liquid.
Therefore I suspect a sync fault.
Does he drink grape juice or grapefruit juice and if it
really was grapefruit juice how come it is so dark?
Greetings, John.

Radar's beverage of choice is Grape Nehi. Nehi was (perhaps still is) a
flavored soft-drink (soda-pop). Being grape flavored would explain the
colour. I would guess 'Nehi' didn't translate well.

This must be a sync fault. The name of the stuff is "Grape Ne Hi"
(or is this a pun on "knee high"?). I think it is supposed to be some
kind of grape juice, so that would be "traubensaft" in German I guess.
Must be a "grape <-> grapefruit" error. I have seen the same kind of
mistake in Dutch subtitling, but then I could still hear the original.

He orders Grape Nehi...A grape flavored soft drink popular in the 50s

Neither, it's grape ne-hi, or simply put, grape soda. Wonder why they'd
call it grapefruit juce?

An error, I think. They translated "grape" to german
"Grapefruit", aka "Pampelmuse" in german. The correct
translation would have been "Traube".
Thank you all for your verifications.
>IMHO, happens either in the series finale or during one of their bugouts
It was a bug-out, esp. since Radar wasn't around for the finale.
And that's a classic scene, indeed!!

No, it is called NeHi. In fact, I have been told it is still sold in
certain parts of the US.

Just wanted to mention that several folks have spoken of Ne-Hi in the
past tense here, I've seen it for sale several places as recently as a
couple of years ago, so I do believe they still exist and it's still
manufactured. I just don't know if it's widely distributed.
Radar orders "Grape Neehigh" . I believe it is some sort of grape soda.

"Nehi" was the brand name of a soda pop. It was popular when I grew up in the
western US in the 60's. It came in orange and grape flavors as far as I remember,
there may have been a cherry flavor too. Anyway, Radar is drinking a
"grape Nehi".

Here in Chicago Ne-Hi is available. I get it whenever i need a change from
coke.

I believe he drinks grape n-hi soda. I am unsure of the correct
spelling of N-hi.

Delurking just long enough:
Grape Ne-Hi
The brand stopped being offered I believe sometime in the 60's.

It's an error in the translation. What he drinks is actually
'Traubensaft', which explains the colour.

It is the same song. They just removed the words and play it as an
instrumental song, with a little bit more speed. But that's really easy
to hear.
