A couple of hipsters opened a store that stocks all kinds of American soft drinks. I went there today for the novelty of tasting whatever nerds on the internet like to drink. I can sure tell you that Dr Pepper tastes gross to my euro palate, and A&W Cream Soda is somehow even worse, like rancid carbonated custard. I poured both of them down the drain. Mountain Dew is kind of 7up-ish, but sweeter and with a really cool color. I might buy that one again. But, I'm not here to rant about sodas. The dude that works there, a bespectacled young man sporting an Islamic State style beard, told me they will be ordering snacks and sweets from the US soon and that I can suggest whatever I would like to try via their Facebook page. So I'm asking you kindly to recommend some typical snacks representative of the American culture. Preferably vegan. Not a bowl of dick please.

gently caress the ROW posted:Dr Pepper has 23 flavors and is generally considered a pretty good soft drink, its possible this iranian or whatever you're getting them from might be buying old ones I got the plain one, they stock at least a dozen flavors so I'll try another one. The expiration date on the bottom of the can is almost a year from today, I think that means it's fresh.

gently caress the ROW posted:Personally as an American my favorite snacks are Mexican soft drinks and beef jerky. And jalepeno chips Are the Mexican sodas made with actual sugar? Because I've noticed it makes a big difference to me. That's why I always get the imported Coke from Bosnia, not the local one that's made with fructose syrup. And jalapeno chips, I can confirm they're delicious. Although I've grown quite fond of the premium British brands that offer thick cut, kettle baked crisps. Event the vinegar ones, it's madness.

Ben&Jerry's ice cream, Bud and Miller are confirmed. I will definitely ask for fancier beers. Are the ones mentioned a few posts up common enough to be widely available?

MondayHotDog posted:Sierra Nevada probably is, the others, no. Sam Adams is a pretty good beer that's widely available. I remember Sam Adams, that's Obama's favorite beer, right? I kind of like him, so I'll ask for that one.

Disco Infiva posted:Give me the address OP, I wanna check that place. Also no, local coke is also made from regular sugar, not corn syrup we aren't animals. Petra i Tome Erdodyja 6. Knock yourself out. And read the labels. Our Coke is made with syrup. Bosnian Coke, available at Spar, and sometimes specialty German Coke, available at Muller, are made with sugar.

I don't know, must be an acquired taste. Mountain Dew tastes a bit like 7UP, but sweeter. I can live with that. Dr Pepper is just weird to me. Looks like Coke, tastes like bitter almonds. I like Fanta, though. Talk about cultures clashing.
