A world without Fresca would be like a world without sunshine.
I really liked the Fresca with sugar, but they stopped making it years ago. Iiked Tab when I was little, but when they changed it from cyclamate to saccharine I couldn't drink it any more.
How do you feel about Squirt, which is also grapefruit flavored? :buddy:

I don't drink a lot of cola. I don't drink a lot of lemon lime soda, either. When I do, there is no substitute.



I think this guy was in a James Bond movie. I may be wrong.

Yep, he was Kananga's voodoo witch doctor henchman Baron Samedi, in Live and Let Die.

Been slowly watching all of the Bond movies in chronological order with my daughter over the past year. Just watched The Living Daylights last night.
