Royal Crown Cola is a brand you don't see on the shelves much these days, but I've always appreciated the unique flavor profile their original cola contains.
Recently I've seen a lot of chatter online about this berries and cream version that's been showing up at gas stations and convenience stores across America, so when I ran into it myself, it was a no brainer.
Now, berry soda is hard to get right. I've seen Coke, Dr. Pepper, and Sprite (among others) fail to find a good way to integrate berry flavors into their drinks. They end up tasting artificial in a way that inspires thoughts of dumping chemicals on your tongue. Not good.
Royal Crown dunks on the mainstream sodas with their eyes closed by quietly putting this on shelves. It's the PERFECT berry soda. It tastes natural and links up nicely with the cola flavor. I'll admit I don't taste a lot of the "cream" mentioned in the name, but I'll take what I can get.
If you run into one of these, it comes highly recommended.

I need to try this. Love being from Chicago and having RC Cola on tap at so many bars and restaurants.

Seeing Faygo on the west coast is really rare, so seeing this bad boy sitting in the same fridge as the RC Cola from my last review was another level of exciting.
Faygo started in Detroit in the early 20th century. It's a staple over there, so I needed to know what the hype was about.
My conclusion is simply that it does what it sets out to do. This very much is a cotton candy soda. Not any better than you'd imagine, but not unpleasant either. It's lacking a little bit of fizz, but I wonder if it's maybe just been sitting on a shelf for too long.
It also stained my tongue blue, so I don't appreciate that a whole lot.
Faygo enjoyers; what's your favorite flavor in their impressive arsenal? Which ones should I be hunting down?

see i love a classic sugar free redbull…
but for some reason the coconut-berry flavor is SO GOOD. i know this is an unpopular opinion but i swear guys it doesn’t taste like coconut. it tastes like berry. but for some reason it is better then the regular berry one. i would never choose a coconut flavor if given the option not to but this one just hits different.

Aw man the breeze is so nice, the sound of kids playing and adults chatting is a nice ambiance, and wow, it's so pretty out.
How come no one ever told me how relaxing it was to have your window open?

Buckled in this giant thing of popcorn my cousin gave me after our movie on this fine evening.
Not only did it keep my buttery perfection safe,
But it also made me laugh the entire way home.
More buckling up of random things please.
