Are we all aware that <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_Dry">Canada Dry is owned by Schweppes</a>?

Weird. Their ginger ales and sodas have such different flavors. Used to drink Schweppes cola in high school in Jerusalem a lot. Had a nice lime-ish flavor.

I dithered between 6oz. and 8oz. It's true the tallboy is a common beverage container in Allston; I think one sees many more 15-packs of PBR.

I once drove to New Brunswick with the express purpose of stocking up on delicious Canadian cream soda (aka "dessert in a can"). Loaded about $150 worth into my Celica and headed back home.

Border Guard: Did you purchase anything in Canada that you are bringing into the United States?
Tommy: Uh, yes. About $150 worth of cream soda
BG: Cream soda, huh?
T: Yes.
BG: Did you get any ginger ale?
T: No.
BG: Too bad. The ginger ale is better up there, too. Have a safe trip.

Mmmmmm.... canadian cream soda.
