TMH Chapter 48: Fizz

Ever since I discovered it, I’ve really enjoyed pop…or soda for you Americans.  The only flavours I am not into are Cream Soda and Dr. Pepper.  As for the Coca Cola / Pepsi debate.  Pepsi tastes like disappointment every time, in the way that I could have had coke.  Hoever, it is not as disappointing as the other two.  From the burping contest at my tenth birthday party, to the time I discovered that you could get free refills at restaurants, I’ve always enjoyed it.  Except for the times when I discovered that I had a limit and ended up throwing up in bathroons or parking lots after three big glasses.  Then people would ask “are you ok?”  I would accidentally lie to them and say, “yeah.” while I threw up a second time.

I should also point out that I really like regular water a lot, not to mention the other regular drinks, like juice and milk, that are actually healthy for you.  So you don’t think I’m insane.  What I haven’t been able to get behind is the “Flavoured Carbonated Water” thing.  I’ve tried twice so far.  One was orange, the other was lemon.  I didn’t taste any of the advertised things.  I finished both of them because I’m stubborn like that.  All I could taste was carbon, and the metal of the can.  Similarly to when I drink V8, all I taste is salt.  I’m not getting what other people get out of the experience.  Regular water is much more tasty to me.
