Never could stand:
1 - Dandelion & Burdock
2 - Tizer
3 - Vimto
4 - American Cream Soda
5 - Sarspirilla (or however you spell it)
6 - Panda cola
Maybe I don't like pop?
Co-op own brand orange squash was good. I think they took it off the market for making kids insane...

Vimto the pop is wrong. Vimto the dilutable cordial is Oh So Right.

Dandelion and Burdock... you guys are showing your age!
Cream soda... in small quantities, depending on one's mood, I think.
Nice with a ball of vanilla ice-cream in it, no?
Vimto... well known that it's an anagram of VOMIT, and that's no coincidence. Reeee-volting!
"Never did me any harm..."

Oh dear. I'm quite sure you don't qualify as a pedant if you're
wrong.
Don't feel bad. It's a common mistake.

Cream Soda tastes of pink
Dandelion & Burdock tastes of dirt.....
Vimto is the nectar of the gods (an being purple should be a goth delight
)
There is only one soft drink and it's the 'real thing'
