Favorite Defunct Soft-Drink

[ChoralScholar]

Not necessarily defunct, but no longer available where you live.

They quit selling Cheerwine here about 10 years ago. I ordered a case on the Internet for myself as a Christmas present.



I also enjoyed 7-up Gold and Crystal Pepsi.



Anyone else like drinks they can't get anymore?

http://www.usasoda.com may jog your memory.

[BigMcLargehuge]

1. Coke testmarketed "OK SODA" here in NH

and I liked it. It only lasted about a year before they pulled the plug on it though.

[ChoralScholar]

2. They gave us a whole bunch for a yearbook signing party

when I was in high school. It coincided with its inclusion in the campus Coke machines.

To me, it tasted like a suicide, with too much orange soda.

[Ediacara]

131. OK Cola was GREAT

And their ad campaign... weird...

[last_texas_dem]

135. O.K. was cool

I only managed to have it 'cause I was in Austin (one of apparently only a handful of cities that it made it to) during the summer that they started pushing it. I got it out of the Coke machines a few times at the hotel where my family was staying. I was disappointed when it never made it to southeast Texas. I liked the weird slightly fruity, slightly cola-ish taste and the strange cans it came in.

[Craig3410]

3. Tab. -nt-

[Taverner]

6. It still exists...do a search and you shall find

[Deja Q]

13. They brought it back. Fresca disappeared for a while too.

[Taverner]

20. OMG! A CYBERMAN!!!

Is that the Cyberman from the new Dr Who shows?

[politicat]

24. It's not the same - reformulated here.

It used to be one of a very few diet sodas I could drink because it didn't have aspertame in it (aspertame gives me heartburn)... just good old saccharine. But no.... they had to go and mess with a classic and add aspertame to the saccharine!!

So now it's Diet RC - splenda only.

[ChoralScholar]

9. We still have Tab here in Arkansas.

I used to drink it some.

[musette_sf]

10. My local supermarket gets a few cases in every week

If all you want is a six-pack they will go in the back and get it for you.

They prefer that you place a standing order.

They call us "The Tab People".

Markets in the NYC area still carry it and allot it shelf space.

[Frank Cannon]

63. Mr. Pibb + Red Vines = CRAZY DELICIOUS

I don't know if Mr. Pibb is still available west of the Mississippi River, but dang if that stuff isn't great. It's just a tiny bit sweeter than Dr. Pepper. It's perfect. I miss it more than any other soft drink.

[ChoralScholar]

71. Yeah.. It's all over here.

What they sell now is called Pibb Xtra. I have a friend that insists it's different from original Mr. Pibb, but I'm not so convinced.

[Taverner]

4. I mis Tribeca Cola from Vietnam

Looked exactly like a Pepsi bottle

[Beware the Beast Man]

5. Surge.

That stuff was addictive . And cheap.

[ChoralScholar]

8. It held on for a while in a few fountains.

But alas, it is gone. One of the few products Coke has discontinued. Usually they leave it up to the bottlers to decide if they can sell it or not.

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

45. Mmmmm...Surge

"It's Limey" That's what we called it.
And man, was it green!

[last_texas_dem]

136. Double post

[last_texas_dem]

137. I liked that one a lot

I thought it was going to last as it was particularly popular among my age group at the time it was introduced (eighth graders!), but was disappointed to slowly see it disappear over the next couple years. I also remember a slightly odder drink Pepsi apparently tried to market for a while, called Josta.

On a mostly irrelevant note, I remember that my best friend was severely allergic to Surge. After drinking it for a couple days his face was bright red and broke out in a lot of bumps that looked like zits but weren't. I'm not sure what was in it in particular that might have caused that, but it made me a little wary about drinking it for a while!

[ChoralScholar]

138. I didn't drink Surge based on principle.

Over one weekend, Surge replaced Mello Yello in all the machines on campus. I guess I blamed Surge for my lack of Mello Yello.

[last_texas_dem]

144. I can understand

I'm a big Mello Yello fan. It's always been pretty hard to find in my part of the country, though. The first time I ever had it was actually in Wisconsin.

[last_texas_dem]

143. Josta

Here's a site to "save" Josta if anyone here remembers it (it lasted from '96 to '99 according to the site) and was a fan.

http://www.murrayhead.com/josta/josta.html

I remember liking it myself, but it probably had a little too odd of a taste for most people.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

7. Hires Root Beer, the best ever

A restaurant in my neighborhood has an old Hires Root Beer sign, and when I asked if they actually serve it, they said no, but that someone asks that question nearly every day.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

54. We still have Hires in a few stores around DC

Let me know when you're coming to town, and I'll get some for you.
Of course, It's not the same as the old Hires...when they used sugar instead of this corn syrup crap; but it's pretty close. :hi:

[FuzzySlippers]

11. Snapple Sodas.

Yummy intense fruit flavors.

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. We have them here...If you ever want a case sent. Say the word.

:hi:

[FuzzySlippers]

14. Wow! I googled them and it said they were discontinued.

Thanks for the offer!:hi:

[XemaSab]

15. New York Seltzer

Black Cherry flavor.

[ChoralScholar]

17. I'm a big fan of Black Cherry flavor. Pretty good, huh?

[XemaSab]

19. It's a fact

And I haven't had it in AGES.

[donheld]

107. Rumor has it that Coke will be bringing out a black cherry coke

That sounds good.

[AntiCoup2K4]

40. Do they still make New York Seltzer anywhere?

I used to drink that stuff religiously. And yes it was black cherry most of the time.

[William Bloode]

16. Eeeeek!!!!

I could not dream of living without my Cheerwine! I live in it's home area so we always have plenty. I did kinda like Crystal Pepsi though and do miss it some.

[me b zola]

18. Cactus Cooler

I still crave them :D

[me b zola]

22. OMG, they still make it!!!

I did a search for a pic, and found that I can order it!!

Mmmmmmmm, Cactus Cooler, gonna buy me some:9

[Touchdown]

25. Watch out! It's like Twinkies.

It tasted much better when I was a kid, than it does now. Sort of like Buck Rogers. Greatest show on TV in the 80s...as an adult watching it..."Damn, this show really does SUCK!"

[SoCalDem]

66. Your taste buds may have changed too

Lots of stuff we had as kids, tastes odd now..Of course if you are my age or older, there are a lot more "additives" in things than there were when these products first came out.

[SiobhanClancy]

21. Pepsi Light...

it was lemon flavored and was around back in the 70s...really good,light but not quite "diet".

[ChoralScholar]

26. This it?

[SiobhanClancy]

33. Yes,that's it!

Don't tell me they still have that somewhere?

[ChoralScholar]

67. .

[ChoralScholar]

68. What if I were to say I'm drinking a can of it right now?

[SiobhanClancy]

72. Well,I would say I hope you haven't had it around since the 70s..

the dates on soda may not be as critical as those on milk,but still....:)

[ChoralScholar]

81. It's really really flat. :)

No, I'm just kidding. I got that off the site I posted earlier.

I remember it, but I never had it. I'm not a 'lemon in anything' fan.

[JVS]

155. I preffered that stuff to regular Pepsi as a kid and totally rejected...

Pepsi Free

[smirkymonkey]

165. I loved Pepsi Light!

Also, used to be a total Tab and Fresca addict as well.

[RevCheesehead]

142. Pepsi Twist.

Is Pepsi Light, redone. (well, that would be Diet Pepsi Twist)
But I can't find the regular Pepsi Twist anymore.
Now I just buy my own lemons and add them myself.

[Moosepoop]

160. I loved Pepsi Light!

I drank it constantly in high school, until I developed what acted like a bad ulcer. It turned out to be hypertrophic gastritis, which my doctor at the time explained in simple terms as "not AN ulcer, it's more like your entire stomach lining is one big ulcer". Pepsi Light got the blame for my condition, and I had to give it up.

I just googled "hypertrophic gastritis"... and it was NOT caused by soda, unless the amount of caffeine in it may have been the culprit. I'm not buying that, not with the amount of coffee I drink with no problem.
My doctor and parents were wrong about the Pepsi Light. It was framed!!!

Now I want some again.

[Touchdown]

23. Aspen.

Pepsi made it in the 70s around Star Wars time. Apple favored, clear like 7up, no caffiene. It was fantastic! Only lasted a couple of years on the market in California though.

I found a petition on Google for Pepsi to bring it back. LOL!

http://www.petitiononline.com/aspen/petition-sign.html

[politicat]

27. Jolt.

The markets used to sell it, but now if I want it, we have to buy it online - and shipping is expensive.

There was also a dark red, guarana laced product that had a jungle type name in the mid nineties. I don't remember the name, but I liked the product.... when I moved to Colorado, I couldn't find it anymore.

[ChoralScholar]

28. I always enjoyed Jolt cola.

They came out with Jolt Extra, or Extreme, or Extraneous, or something, and just ruined the whole thing.

[AntiCoup2K4]

46. Jolt is back now (sort of)

It's now an "energy drink" in a big 24 oz aluminum can with a resealable lid.

[politicat]

115. That's not jolt....

That's a marketing gimmick gone bad!!!!

[EstimatedProphet]

108. Jolt was good stuff

Like lightning in a can

[CanuckAmok]

152. Jolt sponsored the Beastie Boys "License to Ill" Tour...

Imagine 10,000 teenagers all wired on free Jolt, plus the Beastie Boys!

[JVS]

156. I was on a Quizbowl trip in 2004 to St. Louis, and on the drive we found..

Jolt in its original form at a gas station in either Ohio or Indiana. When I announced its presence everyone loaded up. It is the perfect beverage for a 600 mile drive

[unsavedtrash]

166. I was a serious Jolt junkie until it disappeared from the stores here

[graywarrior]

29. TAB. My diet in the 70's

Tab, Marlboro's and rum martini's for dessert.

[benny05]

102. Coke Zero

is very similar to Tab.

[graywarrior]

112. I gave it all up.

It's water for me now. :party:

[Kat45]

133. Tab is still around.

They just don't bother advertising it anymore.

[maveric]

30. Is Fresca still around?

My parents drank that stuff by the gallons.

[ChoralScholar]

31. I still see it around here.

Many people use it for mixed drinks.

[tishaLA]

32. I love Fresca

but it's hard to find. When I see it, I go crazy and stock up.

[blockhead]

151. they even have a peach and black cherry Fresca now.

[underpants]

34. Yeah in fact I think they really started marketing it again

I see it all over the place.

[ghostsofgiants]

48. Yeah, new packaging design and everything

Good drink. Only artificially sweetened drink I've ever liked.

[HEyHEY]

35. You can't get 7-up anymore? I didn't know that

[AntiCoup2K4]

44. The original poster was referring to "7UP Gold"

It was a ginger-ale type offshoot of 7Up they had in the late 80's. Not sure if it ever existed on the other side of the border though.

But, speaking of weird Canadian pop flavors, what the Hell is up with the Mint flavored Sprite???

That shit's nastier than Crystal Pepsi was. :puke:

[HEyHEY]

47. Mint flavoured sprite?

Never heard of it... in Newfoundland they have Pineapple Crush, which is weird.

[AntiCoup2K4]

84. I found the mint flavored Sprite in Hope BC a couple years ago.....

...So I would guess it was pretty well circulated within BC, at least. They had Pineapple Crush in the States for a little while, along with Grape, Strawberry, Cherry, and of course, Orange. But I think they discontinued all of the other flavors except Orange around here.

[HEyHEY]

124. I grew up in BC and live here now

Strange, guess I just never came across it

[ChoralScholar]

69. It actually was an experiment in a cinnamon-flavored cola.

It came in a red can (as i remember) with yellow lettering.

[AntiCoup2K4]

80. It was supposed to be cinnamon?

I remember it having a spicy taste of some kind, but I always thought it was closer to ginger ale. I tried it a few times, but it didn't impress me enough to switch from Coca-Cola or New York Seltzer. I do miss the original Cherry 7-Up though.

[ChoralScholar]

83. Yep. Cinnamon. Strange, huh?

It was similar to Ginger-Ale, and is compared to Vernor's. One of the test markets was the great lakes region, where Vernor's was big at the time. Apparently central Arkansas was a test market also, because even our little mom-and-pop (no pun intended) store had it.

[davidinalameda]

36. my ex-roommate in Florida loved Cheerwine

usually with rum

[Ron Green]

37. Pommac.

Anybody remember where and when that was?

[Ron Green]

93. I found something online about Pommac:

A Dr. Pepper product of the 1960's. It was packaged in a clear bottle with white lettering and was light amber like apple juice in color. It had an apple-like flavor but could also be compared to ginger ale in taste. It may have obtained its name of the French translation of "pomme" which means apple.

I remember Dr. Pepper's trial marketing of this product in the Dallas/Fort Worth area. All the teenagers thought it was cool because it was sorta like beer or wine.

[TheCentepedeShoes]

146. Drank it in college (late '60s)

Something similar you can find today is Vernor's.

[AntiCoup2K4]

38. Anything made with REAL sugar and not High Fructose Laboratory Poison

Fortunately, I found a local grocery store that recently expanded their Mexican food aisle and among the new additions are bottles of Coca-Cola imported from Mexico, made with actual sugar. As far as I know it's only the US and Canada that use the refined corn syrup crap. The rest of the world still uses real sugar.

[ChoralScholar]

74. The US Bottlers really fight the importation of Mexican Colas.

But there's really not anything they can do about it.

They are selling some retro Dr. Pepper made with cane sugar around here. It is a different taste.

Many people think that New Coke (Coke II) back in the mid-80s was just Coke's diversion to switch original Coca-Cola to HFCS. I can't say that's completely off base.

[GirlinContempt]

169. Coke in Canada is made with sugar

[Left Is Write]

39. Rondo and Caffeine Free Mountain Dew.

[EstimatedProphet]

110. RONDO!

I was just going to bring that one up. Good stuff, that. Like Mountain Dew but less sweet.

[maveric]

41. That Vile Swill, Moxie!

My Dad would drink that piss and actually tried to convince us kids that its great.
It tastes like Methyl Ethyl Keytone mixed with juices from the bottom of a port a potty.

[MN ChimpH8R]

50. I kinda liked Moxie

when I was a kid. It was around Minneapolis/St Paul for a few years in the late 1960s-early 1970s.

Bubble-Up was also a childhood favorite.

[qnr]

60. Moxie is still around. If I remember correctly, just last year it was

made the official soft drink of Maine.

[Left Is Write]

79. We can get Moxie here too. I haven't tasted it, but I've seen it.

[qnr]

106. It's an acquired taste. Vaguely herbal. n/t

[jmowreader]

92. And you have experience with this concoction?

Not Moxie. MEK mixed with portapotty contents.

[maveric]

113. My Dad tried to push it on me about 40 years ago.

Told us that its a "real" soft drink.
I dont think so!

[jmowreader]

129. Your dad drinks pee?

[Redstone]

119. So, how is it that you know what the bottom of a Porta-Potty tastes like?

I'm curious.

Redstone

[mainegreen]

127. Blasphemere! Infidel! Moxie is drink of the gods!

Also comes in a new energy drink! Citrus flavor with that same herbal tang we all love, but milder!

Seriously, I love Moxie. It has by far the most complex flavor of any soda!

The energy drink they put out is the best flavored on the market, even if you dont like regular.

However, this makes me sick:

[LSdemocrat]

42. I liked Crystal Pepsi

Then again I was about 11 when it was out, so my tastes may have changed since then.

[ChoralScholar]

75. They swear the only difference was the color,

that there was no difference in taste. Is it all perception? I dunno.

I was about 15 when it was out. I liked it, but then again I'd always give new stuff a chance.

[ncrainbowgrrl]

118. no way- there was definitely a difference in taste.

I liked it too.
:hi:

[qnr]

109. I liked it too. I kind of liked Pepsi Blue too, but I like berries in

general. There were times when I thought it tasted great, and other times when I didn't really care for it.

[Celeborn Skywalker]

43. It was a cherry, Dr. Pepper-like soda.

I can't remember the name though.

[ChoralScholar]

147. Was it Red Fusion?

[ThomWV]

49. Ne-Hi Orange

That shit was so sweet bugs couldn't eat it.

[underpants]

51. Mr.Dangle's Drippings

Hard to believe that one went under

:sarcasm:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

55. That reminds me of that

whale sperm thread somebody posted yesterday...

[tishaLA]

52. When I lived in Philadelphia, they marketed Pepsi Kona

a coffee-cola hybrid. I guess the test marketing didn't go too well because it never got a national launch, but I loved the crap. Then again, I love cola and I love coffee. It didn't really taste like either, but I deluded myself into thinking it did.

[ChoralScholar]

76. That amber bottle didn't help much, I imagine.

Or did the cola stain the plastic?

[commander bunnypants]

53. tab

:puke:

CB

[GoddessOfGuinness]

56. Tiger Brand ginger ale

had a nice kick to it. Schweppes, Canada Dry, and all the others taste wimpy in comparison.

[libodem]

57. Ni-Hi grape

I associate the smell and taste of it with the swimming pool, in my small home town, during the summers in the '60's. Ahhhh :)

[Skittles]

173. LOL I associate it with Radar on MASH

wasn't that his beverage of choice? :D

[catmandu57]

58. Kickapoo Joy Juice

It was around when I was a kid, kind of a lemon lime soda. They used cartoon characters to sell it, so naturally all of us kids wanted it.

[Frank Cannon]

62. Kickapoo Joy Juice was the poor man's Mountain Dew

Oh, yes, I remember it well. Guess that was because I was a poor man, and I really did love that Kickapoo Joy Juice.

KJJ was, indeed, a neon yellow lemon-lime concoction, very similar to "the Dew", but somehow different. It tasted particularly good with Screaming Yellow Zonkers--which were, coincidentally, the poor man's Cracker Jacks, so if you ate your Yellow Zonkers with a dose of Kickapoo you were truly the coolest of all.

Those really were the days. Thanks for all the great memories.

[LoZoccolo]

59. New York Seltzer

That was cool around 1986.

[Jamastiene]

61. I think I would die if I couldn't have my Dr Pepper.

I know it's not defunct, but I have been drinking it for a hundred years now. It has an interesting history. If you pay way too much for it, you can get a six pack of the originial with real sugar cane for the sweetener. I'd love to get some of that and drink it.

[ChoralScholar]

77. It's good, but very very different.

[tuvor]

64. Coke. The "classic" stuff tastes different.

And Coca Cola slurpees never burn my mouth like they used to.

[democracyindanger]

73. Could be the sugar

Try a Mexican Coke. Those are still made with cane sugar, not fructose like US Coke.

[djeseru]

65. The original Fresca.

The one they marketed back in the 1970's - not that overly sweet stuff they keep trying to re-introduce. The original stuff actually tasted nice and chemically...:9

[targetpractice]

82. and it was grey.

Now it's clear. :(

[djeseru]

85. Yes!

And I can still smell it!

I knew it was wrong when they first re-introduced it because the aftertaste was no longer the same. :-(

[targetpractice]

123. I think grapefruits were involved, somehow.

But the Saccharin and carbonation made it difficult to identify any fruit. It's strange that I liked it so much, since I was less than 10 years old.

[DancingBear]

70. Birch beer

The clear variety was the better of the two.

If you grew up on the East Coast in the early 60's you know what it is. :)

[nytemare]

126. Target sells it here.

The Super Target, that is. It is sort of pricey, but some good stuff.

[Burma Jones]

78. Delaware Punch

No Longer Available, but I have a case from Mexico........

They do sell the concentrate and Pennsylvania Punch is identical.....

[BrotherBuzz]

91. Mmmm, Delaware Punch in 7 oz bottles...

with enough sugar crammed into it to wire a kid for twenty-four hours. I seem to remember developing a purple/red tongue, too.

[bertha katzenengel]

86. Bubble-Up reminds me of spending the night at my Grandma's house.

Sweet memories.

[ChoralScholar]

87. Bubble-Up?

That's lemon-lime right?

The first think I think of is a Bubble-Gum flavored soda.

[bertha katzenengel]

90. Yep. Lemon-Lime. Here's a photo:

[Z_I_Peevey]

95. Just keep drinking that free Bubble Up

and eating that rainbow stew.

[bertha katzenengel]

99. sounds vaguely familiar...

old bluegrass?

[Z_I_Peevey]

101. Merle Haggard

I believe.

[AntiCoup2K4]

97. Big Red is the stuff that tastes like bubble gum

It's easier to find in some parts of the country than others. Don't care for it myself, but I've just observed the bizarre distribution patterns.

[Strong Atheist]

122. I assume you were responding to my post. nt.

[Strong Atheist]

88. Big red. Though Inca Cola tastes the same. nt.

[ChoralScholar]

89. ooh.. I think I'm going to go buy some Big Red.

I saw a gas station across town selling RC, Big Red, Sunkist, and A&W in glass bottles earlier.

[Strong Atheist]

121. You must be out west. They do not see it here on the

east coast ...

[ChoralScholar]

141. Northwest Arkansas. EOM

[hyphenate]

94. The one I'm bummed out about

is that Cactus Cooler, which you can get in California, is not distributed here in the Northeast. And I miss it very much. I was going to order some online, but the expense wasn't worth it. It would have been like $60 for a case, which is way beyond ridiculous.

[GCP]

96. Dandelion and Burdock

Seriously- it was a soda in the 50s in the UK. It was black and tasted vaguely of licorice :D

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dandelion_and_burdock

[AntiCoup2K4]

98. Sounds pretty good as a medicinal drink....

...but I'm not so sure it would sell for recreational use.

[GCP]

100. We were happy with what was available at the time

(Doing my Monty Python Yorkshiremen impression!)

[Parche]

103. soda

QUENCH WAS THE BEST

[donheld]

104. 7-up is not gone

It's owned my Carlyle sadly.

[ChoralScholar]

116. I was referring to 7-Up Gold.

[DelawareValleyDem]

105. Bubble Up and Brookdale Soda

[donheld]

111. Check out this website - they still have some of the oldies

http://www.sodapopstop.com/home.cfm

[GirlinContempt]

114. Pic A Pop

[dryan]

117. Barq's...

great!!!!1

[GirlinContempt]

120. Barq's is around

[RayOfHope]

125. I remember Like Cola n/t

[mac56]

128. Shasta Red Apple Soda

or Apple Beer, the drink of the year.

[patsimae]

130. Virginia Dare

Ginger Ale.

Brings back memories....

[WCGreen]

132. Frosty Rootbeer....

[ChoralScholar]

140. I think they still sell that here.

I'm pretty sure I've seen it recently.

[WCGreen]

145. I haven't seen it in Cleveland for years....

[ET Awful]

134. As of earlier this year, Vanilla Pepsi.

I LOVED that stuff, but can't get it any more :cry:

[ChoralScholar]

139. That was pretty good too.

Pepsi is pretty quick to pull products, unlike Coke, who lets it die on the vine for a few years.

[CatholicEdHead]

148. Holiday Pepsi from last year

and the seasonal and soon to be defunct Mountian Dew Pitch Black.

[qnr]

162. I liked the spice too n/t

[Magrittes Pipe]

149. I LOVE Moxie.

You gotta special order it in the Midwest, though, and it costs about $30 a case shipped. :(

[musette_sf]

158. I live Moxie too

in NoCal they have it at Beverages And More (known locally as BevMo). I just tried it for the first time a few months ago. I wish they made Diet Moxie, I would get seriously addicted.

[qnr]

163. Ah, but they do:

http://mainegoodies.com/beverages/dietmoxiecansoda.shtml

You can get them cheaper, that was just to show that it is available.

[Dees]

150. Any Nehi or Grapette...n/t

[khashka]

153. Pepsi Light

Kinda diet with a lemon twist.

I also liked Fresca before they started using NutraSweet.

Khash.

[CanuckAmok]

154. Orbitz (non-Canadians just don't understand this):

Nor did most Canadians, apparently.




http://joelavin.com/orbitz.html

Person who thought to put Round Floaty Chunks in a drink: " Sir, would you like to hear our idea about a new drink with round floaty chunks in it, eh?"

Chairman of the Board: "Round Floaty Chunks! Round Floaty Chunks! That's brilliant! What this company needs are more ingenious people like you. We'll be rich. Rich, I say."

http://www.lanceandeskimo.com/chefelf/bev_orbitz.shtml



Fuck the nay-sayers. Orbitz was delicious, and it was like a disposable lava-lamp. When it was discontinued, I bought three flats from Costco, and rationed them to last six months. The last one was particularly delicious.

[JVS]

157. That stuff was heinous

[CanuckAmok]

159. I loved it!

I can't believe anyone else even remembers it... but Google "Orbitz drink", and see how many pages pop up!

[LeftyMom]

164. I remember that

Orbitz and Crystal Pepsi were both really popular for a year or so when I was in school.

Crystal Pepsi was pretty good. I never was brave enough to try Orbitz, but we did some tests on the stuff in Chemistry.

[GirlinContempt]

167. "Person who thought to put Round Floaty Chunks in a drink"

Bubble tea anyone?

[CanuckAmok]
