Do you have weird "soda" products in your area?

I put soda in parentheses since I know some of y'all call it "soda" or even "pop" God forbid. In Alabama everything is a Coke, but I felt I should be more specific We have Sun Drop, and I think it is only available in the South. If you can find it in a bottle there are little nasty flakes of yellow shit at the bottom you can shake around. I think it's the crack that they must put in there

lol, naw it's probably just saturated with sugar, which is kind of nasty still. I'm in the PNW and I've heard of Sun Drop. I never buy it, and not sure if it is in stores but I think it's around..
Google says Sundrop was made in Missouri and is now owned by Arizona tea company, which sells plenty of stuff here.
I think Jones soda might be limited in its reach. Used to see it around here all the time, but that business isn't doing so well.
In the PNW we have the more microbrews than anywhere else in the country (probably the world even), so we have a TON of beers that you can't find nationwide. Session is my favorite, and they have a few varieties.

Ok, you got me on those...
I've only ever seen sarsparilla in the Fallout games. That stuff is straight out of the 30's lol.
Actually... Google says one company has been making it since 1844

If you never heard of Cheerwine I don't you've heard the song "We Don't Have to Take Our Clothes Off" by Jermaine Stewart.

lol this thread is great..
I know we're talking about soda, but this is my favorite beer, and I know they haven't made it national.

First time I saw someone drinking one I thought he was drinking cough syrup

Session is awesome and very reasonably priced. Their export beer is pretty good too.
Jones Soda did a Thanksgiving soda pack one year - they had sodas that tasted like Green Bean Casserole Soda, Mashed Potato & Butter Soda, Cranberry Soda and Turkey & Gravy Soda (thanks google) I wish I had the opportunity to try it

Cheerwine is in the PNW you can find it at Fred Meyers or Safeway. There's also many other weird sodas there. Also found a store that is dedicated to bottled soda and they have everything from chocolate to cotton candy flavored soda.

it's broken glass. the funny thing is, when you eat broken glass it tastes just like blood
when i was a kid there was a place outside of Atlanta called Soda Pop City, you go straight to the plant and buy bottles of soft drinks in several dozen flavors, you take the empties back and get the deposit back or use it toward your next purchase. it wasnt some warehouse, it was actually a manufacturing plant so you were getting it fresh from the line

Session is great man, but its pretty national now. I live in AZ but have family in Maine and I've gotten it in both places.

cherry dr pepper is like the only good cherry soda. Mexican sodas are usually pretty tasty and cheap and def some interesting flavors for sure. Ive always been kinda disappointed with jones.

Jarritos is pretty common. It's just straight Mexican import so you can get it in almost any large grocery, or any practically any Mexican store or restaurant. If you don't have any Mexicans in your area, you probably don't have Jarritos.
