Awful.. absolutely awful!

I personally miss New York seltzer. I remember as a kid riding my bike across town to get a cold bottle at the local Hy-Vee. loved some black cherry. Another one I really liked, as a young adult, but don't see anymore was Stuart's orange cream or cheery cream soda. That **** was like crack.

Agree Stewart’s is great.

Keep eye out for NY Seltzer, started seeing it all around LA a few years ago and now somewhat common. I like some of the odd flavors.

World Market chain has a lot of these. I know Sioux Falls and Omaha have one, not sure if Iowa has any.

West Des Moines has a World Market.

I remember them handing this out at Trice after a football game once. I took one, tried it, and made a mental note to avoid it from then on.

Do they still make Jolt cola?

They had that at ISU food service in the 90's. We'd mix an ounce of it with an ounce of milk just to watch the chemical reaction.

No. Sadly. Double the sugar, double the caffeine was a helluva ad slogan though.

I like about 3 of them once a year.

I feel this would be a good Friday OT thread. There are so many things that I like maybe once a year. Circus Peanuts, Long John Silvers, etc.

**** is fire, bro.

A local brewery in Omaha used to have a bomb banana bread beer, I'll have to look for this one.

Hell yeah. We had that in the fountain at the food service job I worked back in high school. Think it was essentially carbonated Ecto Cooler.

Only 2 liter bottles counted.

This thread alone should bring a resurgence in RC sales.

We got what was cheapest. Anyone else drink this back in the day?:

I knew RC had been around for awhile, but what I didn't realize is that people craved it or that some thought it was hard to find/had disappeared. I worked in the grocery business for a long time, and RC was regularly available in 12-packs, 6-packs, and 2-liters, at least up until I left the industry 5-ish years ago.

I like it fine, but don't generally buy pop unless I'm at a restaurant/fast food joint, in which case it's always Coke or Pepsi as your options. I just assumed RC was widely accepted/tolerated as a distant 3rd option to the big 2.

Had a wrestling coach that gave out a RC and a Moon Pie to anyone who won a tournament. Nothing beat a nice RC on the ride home.

How you supposed to open that? Where's the pull tab?

I'm old now (40) but I can still make fun of those older

Beef liver and coffee would fit this description for me.

RC is underrated. Very tasty drink.
