I was trying to look back on my first 5 year or so that i lived in Russia and was trying to figure out what were my favorite drinks and candy. It turns out one of them was fanta (orange flavor) and accidentaly i saw some at my local magruders i bought a pair of 2 liter bottles and finished it in a few weeks and man is it the best soda ever!!

The other item is bounty it SO GOOD! its like Almond joy but much better!! you can get some of it HERE

what are some of your fav. rare/other country candy/soda?
 
I've had plenty of Fanta 🙂

There's a soda type drink they call Sangria that tastes sorta like the real thing...very good but hard to find 🙂🙁
 
Chocolate from See's Candies ...mmmmmmmmm.. (Homer drool sound)

I actually prefer "normal" soda most of the time but the Thomas Kemper cream soda and black cherry soda are both a nice change of pace.
 


<< Ahhh...and of course it's not underground but a lot of people don't like it...

But I enjoy Red Bull

<< Whatever happened to Now&Laters? I absolutely LOVED those, and can't find a pack to save my life now. 🙁 >>


We get them for kids every halloween, never had a problem finding em
 
when i took a trip to china with some friends, we were all in awe of the "crystal strawberry" popsicle. yum. only 2 yuan too (25 cents).
 
I had a lot of Fanta and Bounty when I was a kid.

Onf of my favorite sodas now is by Natural Brew. It is their Winter Brew made with ginger and cinnamon. Shame it is only microbrewed in the winter.
 
In Greece I had a drink called Pepsi Max. I never heard of it anywhere else, and it was only out for a very short while. It was supposed to be sweeter with no sugar. It was pretty sweet, but I still prefer Diet Pepsi.

Oh yeah, there was also a drink called Ivi, which was basically like Fanta. It came in lemonade and orangeade flavors.
 
The mountain dew I had in korea came in a really cool can, and tasted different, but maybe not, I couldn't tell 😱

For candy I'd say cola pez (europe somewhere), not because I like it, but because it tastes like cola with a little fizz too.
 
Here in Aussie we have Fanta (I cant tell diff between this and Sunkist), Bounty (I agree better than Mounds) and PepsiMax (the BEST 'diet' soda I've ever had by far).
 
I can buy Fanta Orange here in Colorado, too. (@ Target) I, however, can't buy the other flavors I know from Germany like Pink Grapefruit and others.

Pepsi max uses a sweetener that was not approved to be distributed in the US. You can actually still find Pepsi Max sold in Canada, I just saw some in BC not to long ago.

my favorite pop is a tie between Mountain Dew and Wild Cherry Pepsi, both are oh-so-good.

as for candy... not sure on that one, I don't actually eat much candy. I guess my vote would have to go for anything reese's (sp?) as I love peanut butter and chocolate

Wow, I was not aware of that. Thank you.
 
well, if I was stuck on a desert island....

All time favorite pop (soda is the sissy name) is Dew. I've had some very good old fashioed fountain cokes (lemon coke, lime coke, vanilla coke, CHOCOLATE coke) however Dew is always reliable.

As for candy, hmm, I can't think of one, I like all candy.
 
party stores here in michigan have several flavors of fanta...although i've never had it, might buy some tomorrow.

want to try something unique for a change? try some of the jones brand soda in glass bottles...their cream soda rocks, and for something really different, get their bubble gum flavored pop :Q😛
 
Most effective pop: JOLT!
Best tasting pop: Stewarts Orange Creme
Candy......Tough choice, it's all good. I'd have to say probably........aw crap, I love it all!
 
Favorite sodas...hard to decide but i like those foreign sodas that are hard to get...like Ginseng Up (not sure if they still exist) and those spanish sodas like manzana and columbiana(?)

Fav candy: I can only think of Nerds candy
 
Creme soda (don't even think what you are thinking... it IS a soda)
Abba-Zabba , taffy and peanut butter. How can you go wrong with that.

Pixie Sticks, cleverly marketed pure sugar. Good thing they didn't have the term ADD back then, LOL
