Bairnardo Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I'm often not a fan of dismissing certain foodstuffs as being "for kids" because its usually nonsense, but I cant imagine a grown up being able to tolerate the sweetness of red kola 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior Pub League Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Oh yeah, Pineappleade is a good one. The worst is Bubblegum, looks like something sold by Colgate and somehow manages to taste as bland as possible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 I don't know if my tastebuds have changed, or potentially the recipe, but although I loved American Cream Soda as a kid, the last time I had it, it was utterly vile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Barr's red kola is the drink of the devil. Absolutely awful. Curries beats it hands down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipa Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Ever since Still Game's "If life gives you melons, make melonade," I've been quietly hoping for Barr's to do just that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if you are being sarcastic, but cans of red cola are beguiling in the shelves of chippies, alongside cardboard boxes of space raiders and the likes. None of which are particularly good for life expectancy Edited March 27, 2021 by Cosmic Joe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking as someone who has tried both approaches, it's the keepers that are in denial. Get it shaved aff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
