nosweargamer Posted August 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Ha! You and I disagree on the Rock & Rye! flavor. So...what exactly does the "rye" part refer to??? I have no clue.

nosweargamer Posted August 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Time to ketchup Artic Sun First of all, props for using a blue plastic for the bottle. Really gives it a cool look. Once again, this one is a bit too sugary, and the grape fruit flavor is too strong for me, but then again, I don't like grape fruit.

nosweargamer Posted August 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Dr. Faygo This one is for Justin. What we have here is a Dr. Pepper rip off that is good in a pinch, but not as good as the real deal.

nosweargamer Posted August 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Diet 60/40 Apparently this is supposed to taste like 60/40 mix of grapefruit and lime. The initial taste reminded me of Squirt, and I like Squirt, but then came an awful, terrible, no-good aftertaste that made me wonder if I just drank Diet Rubbing Alcohol. Rating: TRASH!

nosweargamer Posted August 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Orange! For years I ignored Orange! in favor of Root Beer and the various cream sodas, but I shouldn't have. Orange is great, and even has a slight creamy taste to it. Why did I put you down so long?

nosweargamer Posted August 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Vanilla Creme Soda! To this day I like cream sodas, and this is a big reason why. It's just a simple, but very good pop. What else can I say. Rating: Hall of Fame Fun Fact: Faygo used to also make a Diet Chocolate Creme Soda. I don't recall a regular version though, which is weird.

dauber Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 (edited) Oh man...totally forgot, I had some of that orange stuff recently and took a picture. To me...it wasn't any different from Orange Crush or Sunkist. Basically, if you've had one orange soda, you've had 'em all. But I liked it!

RickR Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 Only slightly related to this post...but there is a brand of apple soda called "Manzanita Sol" that is one of my favorite things. It tastes very much like real apple. Not fake, not too sweet. Give it a try if you ever see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbuck66 Posted August 20, 2018 Report Share Posted August 20, 2018 Look NSG, Rock n Rye ice cream! I haven’t tried yet, but next time I’m on the east side I’m going to check this place out! https://www.mlive.com/food/index.ssf/2016/09/this_is_the_best_ice_cream_ive.html Justin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dauber Posted September 20, 2018 Report Share Posted September 20, 2018 So here I am going on about how I can't find Faygo...well, turns out that there's a convenience store that I walk by every day on my way to take the CTA Red Line train to work (that is, when I don't ride my bike to work)...and not only do they carry Faygo, but they have a huge sign in the window advertising such! Heh. I'll probably be posting more about my Faygo experiences here. Justin 1 Quote Supernatural, perhaps...baloney, perhaps not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atarifan95 Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 Surprised I missed this thread all the times I've been here. I live in Michigan, and Faygo is a great drink. The shop at my college had a bunch of them when I was there too. Justin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
