So he ^^^^^ may have been banned, but he had a good point.

Jones Soda is freaking amazing.

 

[Talisker]

It may just have been a myth. But I heard one of the ingredients caused it to be banned in the US. Could have been the caffine issue.

I love jones soda, I have it all the time. I also live near a Coca-Cola bottling plant and they still sell it in glass bottles so I can get those crates that they used to come in full of pop in glass bottles, and why does it always taste better in glass bottles? I think its the chemicals they use to clean 'em out...yummmm
but jones is the one with turkey and gravy flavor right? has enyone ever tried that?

 

[Sexual Harassment Panda]

I'm drinking some right now. I'm sure this stuff will inevitabely be the death of my teeth.

 

[the monopoly guy]

ive been dirnking about 2-3 cans of soda a day and have yet to get a cavity, I am addicted to caffeine.

Another food/drink from the UK that has a distinct taste and a 'love it or hate it' reputation is Marmite. I've always wondered how well known it is in America, and seeing as this thread is along the same lines, has anyone in America tried it before?

Marmite rules.

I have always thought about this I don't know why, I only thought of it now due to the Pepsi vs Coke poll.
Have any Americans heard of Irn-Bru?
It is a Scottish fizzy drink that has a unique taste.
Also I reccomend watching it's advertisements on Youtube

Yes I have.
When I went to a Scottish heritage event there was this one vendor that sold Irn-bru and Haggis.

 

[fat american]

I think Americans drink entirely too much soda as is.

I am addicted to soda. It's just so good. We can't have it in the house or I'll drink it all. So this Irn Bru you speak of would probably make me pick at non-existent bugs under my skin if I go without it for too long.

It's cause in the metal bottles they have a metallic taste.
You know, aluminum cans.
Plastic bottles, plasticky...
Glass: No flavor!!!

Ok, I'm well aware that this thread is dead and buried in the vaults, metaphorically speaking, but I'm bored as crap and came across it. I'm from Saint Paul, Minnesota, U.S.A. and I gotta tell you, I love Irn-Bru and I warmed up to Marmite after a couple tries. But Irn-Bru? God in whatever heaven you believe in, I love that stuff!!!

 

[FranzTyphid]

[Eldritch Warlord]

Where is the poll?

And no, never heard of it prior to reading about it just now.

 

[EMFCRACKSHOT]

Well, I'm from Aberdeen, not America, but my father always used to tell me that Scotland was the only country in the world where a brand of cola wasn't the most popular canned drink. Probably not true, like most of the things my father has told me, but it's still the world's best hangover cure.

Yes, yes it is. Tastes nice too. WAy better than coke and piss(pepsi)

 

[ArcWinter]

I'm from america, and I've never heard of it... or any other things that aren't Pepsi or Coke.

By the way, both Coke and Pepsi taste horrific. Sometimes it's too bland, sometimes it's taste is disgusting and too strong... bleugh. Never drink the stuff.

However, root beer is god's gift to mankind.

 

[OddOzZy666]

Can we cut a deal? The British give America Irn bru and in return America gives Britain Mountain dew. I love that stuff

 

[El Poncho]

I was goin to mke this thread about the best drink in the world if you havnt heard of it you must find it! It's fizzy it's ginger its phoenominal!

 

[El Poncho]

Why, yes, I have heard of Irn-Bru. Although I have never actually tasted it, I've heard it has a unique flavor and color.(bright orange? I'm not sure)I learned about it after a long procrastination on Wikipedia looking up minority soda companies. Isn't it Scottish?

Yes it s scottish Sorry for posting twice. i need to start reading the whole forum before i post

Agreed on both counts.
Root Beer is ambrosia for me. Ever had birch?

 

[SecretTacoNinja]

I think it tastes like battery acid. :\

They don't say it's made from girders for nuthin'.
