7up; > 7 Up (or Seven Up) is a brand of a lemon-lime flavored soft drink, and is now a 100% Natural Lemon-Lime Soft Drink. The rights to the brand are held by Cadbury Schweppes Americas Beverages in the United States, and by PepsiCo in the rest of the world (sublicensed to Britvic in Great Britain and C&C in Ireland). Sierra Mist; > Pepsi began selling a drink known as Storm in 1998 to test in some markets. The drink was primarily lemon-lime, but some consumers thought it tasted too much like a hybrid between lemon-lime and Pepsi’s own Mountain Dew. In 2000, Pepsi reformulated Storm and changed its name to Sierra Mist. A Diet Sierra Mist was introduced during this time as well. The product was sold in two thirds of the continental US and had better sales success compared with Storm. In 2002, just two years after hitting the market, the drink had a redesigned package resembling itself more like a lemon-lime drink. Sprite; > Sprite is a clear, lemon-lime flavored, low caffeine soft drink, produced by the Coca-Cola Company. It was introduced to the United States in 1961. This was Coke’s response to the popularity of 7 Up, which had begun as “Lithiated Lemon” in 1929. It comes in a primarily green and blue can or a green transparent bottle with a primarily green and blue label. Sprite is also found in 8oz. glass bottles. Currently, Sprite is sold in over 190 countries. ---

I WILL NOT drink any soda from plastic bottles, they are always trying to push those on everyone.:banghead: Always piss warm and they don’t taste the same. So no more Mr Pibb there. Do they have it outside the Tops by the Ritz anymore? ---

Mello Yello never died off. You just don’t see it in NY very often for some reason. I used to love surge back in middle school.
