Wow, 7up tastes like junk now.

[biggestmuff]

Nothing to add, really. I never enjoyed 7up.

However, anyone remember 7up Gold?

There was nothing wrong with classic 7-up. They didnt need to fuck with it.
I havent enjoyed it for years because they decided to change a perfectly good product.

I think we should beat Orlando Jones.

it looks like someone is hurtin' for a squirtin'

how bout those generic sodas... Remember SHASTA!!!

and what about samschoice...etc and grocery store brands.

they rock

 

[jaqie]

Shasta? didn't they used to be VESS? I love the old vess black cherry and also orange sodas. If I could still find vess black cherry I would drink way too much of it. xD

show us your can!

I bought a 6-pack of 7-up last year for the first time in years...NOT crazy about their "new & improved taste"

Sprite is MUCH better...Sierra Mist is an acceptable substitute for Sprite.

Jagie, Shasta has been around for about 50 years, (actually, since 1931) so if VESS is now Shasta, it's because Shasta bought them out...(but I don't know if that's the case or not)

that weird Cafiniated 7-Up with the upside down logo, dul or something? was pretty good, much better than normal 7-Up. Had a different taste that I couldn't quite put my finger on. It didn't do too well because I only saw it around for a few months and never again.

I know they have, and that's what I think happened, though I can't find any information at all on it one way or the other. I havent lived around the saint louis area in years, and back then is the only time I ever saw it... It may just be a local brand but it may have been bought out, I really don't know which.

it was dnL, or 7up upside down, made by the same company.

I just had a Sierra Mist w/ orange. Pretty good stuff.

 

[xboxist]

I forget about the entire existence of Squirt for years at a time. Then when I re-remember it, I drink it for about 2 weeks straight. Then I forget about it again because I'm sick of it.

rofl. You win.

I do love the sugar cane cokes hy-vee sells. They are just amazing.

Yeah, "natural" just like cyanide which exists in minute quantities in almonds.
Have a nice cup of cyanide, why don't you?
Just cause a substance exists in nature its "natural". However, that doesn't mean its healthy or good for you or even that its not fatal to you.
Perhaps you would like a nice cup of "natural" hemlock?

 

[jaqie]

I never once even suggested that natural is inherently good for you. For what it's worth I totally agree that natural is overused and overgeneralized as healthy. You are assuming far too much from your additude, and assuming wrongly, about my additudes.

its always tasted like crap
