Waiting for Hachiko |
At the grocery store, I decided to buy some Fresca. Only stocked in cans. After chilling , I tried a glass, nothing like I remember from years ago, when my stepfather and I drank it in glass bottles. Then reading, I found out why, the type sweetner has been changed 3 times since the original. I didn,t think it had the "tang" of the original. 美しい犬 | ||

I remember the saccharin stuff. An old couple who were friends of my parents used to always have it when we visited. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

Link to original video: https://youtu.be/XDFCL5Oiqk0 That stuff could really cut through a dry dusty thirst. As a kid, I used to get one Fresca, a 32 oz Gatorade and a Coke after riding a dirt bike over hill and dale for a few hours. Drank the Fresca and Gatorade fast and then enjoyed the Coke. Good times. I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. -Ecclesiastes 9:11 ...But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by Him shall glory, but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped. - Psalm 63:11 [excerpted] | |||

I've generally increased the vodka content of my drink until the Fresca taste is tolerable with breakfast. They don't think it be like it is, but it do. | |||

I've become a Coke snob, I only drink the Mexican version because it has no High Fructose Corn Syrup. Better taste, not syrupy sweet, little more "bite" to it. At least in my opinion. -------------------------------------—————— ————————--Ignorance is a powerful tool if applied at the right time, even, usually, surpassing knowledge(E.J.Potter, A.K.A.

3 parts Fresca, 1 part silver tequila, wedge of lime, and a dash of salt over the rocks in a Collins glass is called a Paloma. IMO, it's better with Fresca than Squirt.

Maybe it’s a sin, but I’ve fount Absolut Citron and Fresca is a nice refreshing drink. They tend to go down nice and easy.

I haven't liked it since they stopped putting lithium in it. | |||

Go Vols! |
When I was a kid my grandpa had a building covered in metal sheeting with Fresca advertisements. I always wondered what it tasted like. When they finally started selling it again ... yuck! Grapefruit | |||

Ding ding ding ding ding! In my yute, I discovered Squirt (in green glass bottles) was a pretty decent hangover treatment. Never cared for Fresca, had a nasty saccharin taste. Probably the formulation in use at the time. Even worse in cans. Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||
