Another odd soft drink I've enjoyed -- Canfield's Diet Chocolate Soda.  Tastes like a Special Dark melted into club soda.  Or something.

If this is actually good, I may have to try it. I've always wanted to try a good chocolate soda, but the ones I've had have been disasters. (My mother favors a Cherry Chocolate thing that's really just exceedingly vile.)

I'm assuming Yoo-Hoo doesn't do it for you? I bet you could make a good one yourself. If you have never had a chocolate soda made correctly at an ice-cream shop soda fountain (and the art is dying...I usually have to shout instructions from across the counter) try it. And then try it at home with smaller amounts of ice cream til you have a tasty beverage of soda and chococlate. You might like it pretty good!

See, I've never thought of Yoo-Hoo as a soda, just as a sort of quasi-chocolate-milk-thing. But I like Yoo-Hoo pretty well.

Yoo-Hoo is good.

There was another brand of chocolate drink that was also carbonated and the combination was just awful.

When I was a kid the CVS up the street sold O'Doul's (or however you spell it) non-alcoholic beer, which was awful then and awful now.

So what about the other flavors? Goodness or crime against the good name of Yoo-Hoo?

The search for turkey soda continues.  So far, I've been to several grocery stores (2 Safeways, 2 QFCs, a Fred Meyer and an Albertsons) and two 7-11s with no luck.  I'm thinking that many retailers are not interested in stocking meat-flavoured novelty sodas.  Damn them.  But, I'll try and hit the string of independent convenience stores between campus and my apartment on the way home tonight.  If that doesn't work, I may call the search off.  We'll see.

(And it seems this isn't Jones' first foray into the meat beverage area.  Mmm, ham)

But, in the interest of having something interesting to say, I did try an odd flavored beverage, found at a local 7-11.  A green-tea flavored cola.  It actually wasn’t that bad.  Not to sweet or syrupy, with kind of an odd herbal flavour, presumably from the tea.  Not bad, although I generally refrain from purchasing things with tie-dye-esque labels.

Representin' for Dr. Brown's Cel-Ray soda.  

Celery-flavored soda.  Mmmmmmmmm.

Where is this sold? I think I may have next year's birthday present for the SO.

Most delicatessens and grocery stores that have a section devoted to the more Jewish end of the food spectrum ( matzos, gefilte giraffe, Manischewitz wine, etc. ).  

Dr. Brown's also make the best soda ever ( Black Cherry ) and what most people consider the best cream soda ( not to my taste ), so I guess they have to balance it out with something vile.  Better than chicken fat flavored soda, I suppose.

The Greenberry's Coffee by me sells Cricket Cola (now in diet!) that's made from tea. I refuse to try it because I detest both tea and coffee but my SO thinks I'd like it.

I can't believe they have diet Cel-Ray. They always have it at delis I visit but I've never seen anybody buy it. Does anybody else think that 7-Up from a can tastes vaguely like celery?

What about Liz-Blizz?  The milky-ish fruit flavored drinks?  I used to like that drink until my boyfriend started referring to it as Jizz-Blizz.  (Is that how you spell Jizz?)

Yes, that is the proper spelling of jizz.  

I always get Jizz-Blizz and Spodie-Bang confused.

I can't think of Dr. Brown's Cream Soda without imagining some groupie getting off on it.

Damn you, Frank Zappa.

I have the same problem with mud sharks.

[AugustWest]

How do you feel about the Telefunken U-47?

[Limmo]

Or Steve Vai's hairbrush?

[AugustWest]

Or perhaps the state of Illinois and some hot soapy water?
