1. I like it.
My mom got me on that kick. I like some of the new flavors they have out.
It's been "back" for awhile I think.

3. No warnings
Yeah, flavors. Like raspberry, something or other. Can't think of the exact name. It was pretty good.

6. My grandmother used to drink that. They pulled it because it was sweetened
with Saccharine (that's the same reason you don't see Fizzies anymore).

But why would anyone want to have it with any other flavors? The fact that it was the only grapefruit-flavored soda was the ONLY thing going for it.

7. Saccharine
Edited on Fri Dec-30-05 11:12 PM by chookie
Saccharine was found to be a carcenogenic ingredient, and Fresca had egg on its face for a while.

I don't know what they're sweetening it with now, though.

I like it, even though I do not drink soda very often.
