food, soda 

i don't know if this is actually an old brand of soda or if it's just trying to look like an old brand, but we got a bottle of this fancy soda that calls itself "macfuddy's, the distinctively strong pepper elixir" and claims to "cure timidness and satisfy the daring"... and claims to be "luck-infused" whatever that means

tastes alright, nowhere near as strong as you'd expect from what it claims though. can't taste the pepper at all, though, mostly get a cherryish flavor with a hint of cola. Weirdly, slightly reminiscent of cough medicine while drinking it, but doesn't have anything close to the horrible aftertaste cough medicine is infamous for, which makes it actually not unpleasant?

re: food, soda 

ah, it has "pepper extract" in its ingredients list.... *after* sodium benzoate, which if you know much about food preservatives you know that *VERY* little sodium benzoate goes into stuff, you barely need any of it for the preservative effect
