Lots of sodas I’ve never even heard of. Who ever it was that said cream soda, I’m with them. Who would have ever thought of reproducing the taste of vomit in a soda, or that it would remain popular for so long?
Growing up we weren’t allowed to have soda that much. So I remember one big family picnic when I was maybe 5 and there was a big cooler full of ice and soda cans. I was so excited. I grabbed one and opened it and took a big swig of DIET CHOCOLATE SODA and I haven’t tasted anything so horrible since. Finding out that it comes in CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER is tramatizing me all over again!
Why do companies even make stuff like that? And who buys it and leaves it laying around where innocent little girls who can’t read yet might get ahold of it? :mad:
In the years since this thread was started, I was lucky enough to go to Malta (coincidentally, the subject of my first SDMB thread). The less lucky part was trying their popular local soda, Kinnie. If you like bitter oranges and wormwood, this is for you!
It’s not for me.
I, for one, love Cel-Ray. Too bad they discontinued the Diet.
Have you tried Orange Vanilla Coke?
It tastes like it *should *get your drunk, in a bad way.
I’d have to go with Orangina. It tastes like they turned Orange peels into a soda.:eek:
I have to say energy drinks. Red Bull is vile, can’t see how anyone drinks it. (5-Hour Energy is worse - all the flavor of a Red Bull in one swallow.)
I also can’t stand Mio, that drink additive stuff that is taking over the Kool-Aid market. That stuff tastes very chemical to me.
I’ve never tried an energy drink. Partly because I asked my college students if they liked any of them…
“They taste like ASS!” yelled one kid, and this started everyone else chiming in with stories of how Red Bull or Monster tastes “Worse Than Ass”. The whole class drank them, but only to stay awake. Not one single student would even say “It’s ok…” The votes were 100% “Ass”.
Speaking of Malta - my vote goes to Malta Duquesa. I thought it was a brand of beer. It ain’t.

Tab. 'Nuff said.
I ran across Orbitz once. Once.
While it isn’t quite on point, this Simpsons quote gets the basic concept of Orbitz down pretty well:
My kid went through a stage where she would make “Kamikazees”, the 7th-grade term for putting random quantities of various sodas into the same cup.
So, I vote “Kamikazee” flavored soda. 
I remember doing that at about the same age. Meh, I still say energy drinks are much worse than any kamikaze.
I seriously can’t be the only one who saw this name and pictured a drink of “Orange with a hint of Vagina.”
i read where the guy who invented red bull back in the early 80s said he never drank a full glass of it as he thought it tasted disgusting and if he did sample it it was for quality control …
theres also the infamous banana soda from Canfield that supposedly tasted so bad they only sold a couple dozen cases and it sat there until canfield himself sold(actually pretty much gave it away) it to a lady who had a banana themed museum
she tried it and said it was the worse banana flavored item shed ever tried
and dear lord who other than someone from or descended from mex or further south want tamarind soda?
It tastes like a caffeinated, melted Dreamcicle.
I saw cinnamon Coke at the store the other day - any brave soul give it a whirl?
Have you ever tried it?
