help! jolly good soda flavor

[chadomac]

Love 50/50! Forgot about that soda...

Jolly Good was the Corey Hart of soda, that's for sure. Great bargain, underrated and underappreciated. I used to love putting together my own case with a hodge-podge of varieties. Beside the aforementioned cream soda, my personal favorite was the cherry soda. It's a crying shame that you can still find Faygo products in nearly every grocery store, but Jolly Good is no more.

ahhhhhh, New York Seltzer...Forgot all about that stuff, they had a cream soda flavor too!

 

Memories...

Not necessarily. I always felt that the cola left something to be desired. I thought that the orange wasn't quite up to the level of Crush either. At the same time,there were quite a few 'home runs' in their cornucopia of flavors.

Yeah, the cola was like a poor man's RC.

I think Woodman's might have Jolly Good. You should make a run, hawing, since I don't have one within 90 minutes of me.

 

If it has been produced in the last decade, it's at Woodman's. I actually recall seeing a five year old bottle of DFH 120 minute IIPA on the shelf there. Boy must that be a stale IIPA!

 

Jolly Good Soda takes me back to elementary school, when it was almost always the soda provided for field trips, probably because of the price. We didn't drink a lot of soda at home but I loved getting Jolly Good Grape Soda when I would be at a friend's house.

Might have been New York Seltzer, that is ringing a bell. Maybe I'm thinking about a knock-off of NYS that came out after NYS reached it's peak, maybe NYS went to plastic in their later years. I know it wasn't Clearly Canadian or anything else that anyone has mentioned.

Retro and oddball soda fans may find this interesting:

It's the online home of a Los Angeles store that I saw several years ago on Unwrapped.

 

They claim to have the largest selection of sodas around.

 

I can't see ordering soda online to have it shipped to my house, but it is fun to see what products are still being made.

50/50 is definitely still available...at least in the Stevens Point area.

 

Was the soda-flavored water you are referring to New York Seltzer? I used to love those when I was a kid.

 

On a separate note, does anyone remember the PB Maxx candy bar? In my opinion those were the best candy bars of all time.

 

The Pig in Delavan always has it stocked.

We went to a place just outside OKC called Pop's that had about 600 flavors of bottled soda, arranged by flavor. Real good food as well.
