    • wtf is the 1901 version? even viler than the toxic orange waste they sell now?hans_glib
    • Sugar-free-free, but apparently without the caffeine, which is a bit odd.Nairn
    • Here you go: https://amzn.to/3qux…shapesalad
    • I don't buy stuff like this online, and I especially don't use Amazon.Nairn
    • ANCIENT BUBBLE GUM WATER (lol, couldn't resist)garbage
    • hehe, the amazon link was specifically for you..shapesalad
    • ha, 'thanks'! It was on Amazon a year or so ago when it was just a special edition. I was very close to capitulating on my 'principles'.Nairn
    • as a pop fan (i'm from the country called the midwest, sue me), what's the flavor profile on irn bru, in general? I've always wanted to try itkaiyohtee
    • I hate to say it, but Garbage isn't far wrong. It's like 'Bitter Bubble Gum' - like if you mixed a mediterranean style sweet bitter (eg. SanBItter) & BubbleGumNairn
    • A colleague blew my tiny little mind in my twenties when he derided Irn-Bru as 'bubble gum juice' as it'd never crossed my mind 'til that point. The cunt.Nairn
    • Since the sugar tax came in to the UK, screwing up all my favourites with artificial sweeteners, my 'Adult go-to' was an Aperol Spritz :)Nairn
    • I just looked this up. Wow.monospaced
    • @Nairn I think we've had this conversation before. There's a Peruvian soda called Inca Kola that tastes exactly the same. I actually like it if it's ice cold.garbage
    • The secret incredient is lemon verbena. It's the main in both of them.garbage
    • Lol, I was stood outside a South American supermarket last week, desperately trying to remember what it was supposed to buy in there :)Nairn
    • That, and some kind of green sauce, was all I could remember :)Nairn
    • haha, amazing. Aji verde is the good sauce if you want to have some Peruvian roast chicken and fritas.garbage

    • Really simple to make, and everything becomes delicious.garbage
    • I tried IRN BRU out of interest one day. It's a sugary as fuck orange soda. Nothing more. Really odd that you guys have latched onto it.inteliboy
    • It's orange because it is made from girders. Apart from my family, Bru is the only thing I missed when I left Scotland.face_melter
    • But if you think Irn Bru is sugary, Curries Special (Red) Kola - another Scottish staple - from the 80's would have melted your teeth.face_melter
    • It's orange because of food coloring and nothing more.monospaced
    • Girders. Stop being a miseable pedant.face_melter
    • There's one thing better than Irn Bru, Buckfast

    • Disappointed Mono didn't come back with
