Root Beer, Mountain Dew and Iced Tea are all the Devil's work. Can't stand 'em.

Haven't yet tried Iced Tea, but the concept just seems wrong

An American friend of mine asked for an iced tea in the UK, he was given a cup of hot tea with milk in it with an ice cube on the saucer by a very confused waitress.

That reminds me of the time I served a cream tea to some Americans who (kind of understandably) put the clotted cream in their tea.

Root Beer is delicious, if done right. The old Dog&Suds was the best. If you want a nasty soda, go to Maine and try Moxie.

chartreuse is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Re: Has anyone noticed...

I don't mind root beer, but I used to like Dandelion and Burdock. Or Dandelion and Burglar, as somebody once called it.

Leave the Moxie alone. It is nectar of the Gods.
