HAha, that’s interesting. A few years back, I was at the grocery store, and they had a soda chugging contest to win a case of “Jones” (namebrand) soda. It was a special holiday case. If you like/know “Jones” soda they have funny pictures and funny names. Well, the soda I drank tasted like sweet potatoes. Another tasted like Turkey, another antacid, and I think stuffing, etc. It was a big surprise, luckily I didn’t taste anything much except at the end. I almost won too, but I paused when I got the first taste in my mouth because I was so shocked! After having one of them, I decided I didn’t really mind losing, haha.
In case anyone is interested, this year’s flavors are:
“This year’s 4 Holiday flavors to include: 1) Ginger Bread: made from only the smiley faced heads of 100% organic, free range, gluten free gingerbread people. 2) Sugar Plum: fresh squeezed a la the aforementioned fruit of legend, and plucked from the only known remaining Sugar Plum tree in existence, nestled deep in the Foja Mountains of Indonesia. 3) Candy Cane: a drink so crisp and winter fresh, you’ll have no choice but to exclaim “By the beard of Santa!” in a crowded library, and finally 4) Pear Tree: a nectar so refreshing Zeus himself was known to sip it from his silver goblet, whilst wearing headband antlers”

They sound much better than the turkey and antacid the year I tried one!
Jones’s Green apple soda is excellent!
I love their fufu berry LOL.. hate the name though. It conjures up images of hot pink sprayed poodles.
Last year I got some Bacon flavord Jones soda for Christmas “fun” gifts. Everyone who tried it, hated it after one sip.
I kept a bottle for myself, but never had the nerve to try it. Finally tossed the unopened bottle last week.
