Okay, regarding the Crushes:

Orange - still good. Not like my 30 yr old memory of it (involving hot summers, swimming pools, october sundays watching the Broncos), but good.

Grape - very good. Really grapey flavour, realistic, not Nehi but way better than Shasta.

Strawberry - eh … I don’t know. Has a better taste than “red” sodas, but still not a realistic flavour. Maybe I shouldn’t compare a strawberry soda to real strawberries, 'cause it was kind of close. It’s just, I don’t know … Look elsewhere.

There’s a ton of [Green River](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_River_(soft_drink)) around here right now; it even comes in diet!

Grape Crush is totally the best grape.
