SEATTLE - Jones Soda takes the idea of a liquid diet to a new low. How does Green Bean Casserole Soda strike you? And how about an aggressively buttery-smelling Mashed Potato Soda?
Even the creators of the fizzy concoctions at this small Seattle soda company can hardly stomach the stuff. But last year's unexpected success of the Turkey & Gravy Soda means another round of bizarre food-flavored soft drinks. As an added bonus -- they're calorie-free.

This is gross.
Did they make it with the Bass-O-Matic '76?
Hope it doesn't last long. Here in SEAsia, Fish Ice Cream was big last winter. I have not seen it lately. Of course, a local fruit called duriem and which has all the inviting aroma of an open sewer, has had its ice cream, cookies, bread, turnovers, etc. Also, durien has great staying power.
I doubt anyone would want to drink 12oz of it though.
Maybe they should make butter flavored chewing gum.
"PATENT PENDING!"
The buttered mashed potatos beat out sweet potatos.
It doesn't come close to some of the things we've tried from a local Asian market (the Great Wall Mall for Seattle area folks). The other day I had an egg flavored soy based soda from the Vietnamese deli. Interesting.
It's a dessert topping!
What is that?
The whote fungus drink isn't hald bad.
I'll have to look for that. So far the only thing I've rejected out of hand are the stewed chicken feet in gravy they serve at the market deli. It's not the taste that concerns me, how in the heck do you eat them?
Doesn't sound any worse than some of the protein drinks I had to stomach while trying to rebuild my red blood cell count. Some of that stuff was wretched...like drinking a meat milkshake.
heard it gives you a lisp.
Iron Chef French Sakai made salmon ice cream once.
What part of SE Asia? Im in Malaysia
You should see Harry Potter Jelly Bellys:
Vomit
Booger
Dirt
Ear wax
Spinach
Sardine
They claim they really taste like the names.
Eww...
At Disney's Epcot, they have this igloo pavilion owned by Coca-Cola where you can sample sodas from around the world. Most of them are horrible....especially "Beverly"(don't ever drink Beverly! ;-) ) I remember them having watermelon soda which was pretty good, but nothing as wacky as Greenbean soda!
I've only had chicken feet at dim sum places. You basically spit out the many bones. It's mostly skin.
Thailand. Im sure durien is big in Malaysia but I only know it by the Thai -- Durien. It looks like a soccer ball with big spikes (not to be confused with jackfruit which is great). I have not seen the fish ice cream since I got back from 7 months in USA this September. The ice cream was featured in the Nation and Bangkok Post newspapers and was said to be well recieved by the Japanese tourists. I will stick with Malaysian satay -- none better :>
