The phone number is 4 digits. I realize we added area codes. I didn't realize we had already done it once before that wet the other 3 digits.i wonder if they still have a xxx-xxx-3577 phone number floating around the company somewhere
Wouldn't this curdle? I can kind of see how it would be a distant cousin of a creamsicle or a root beer float, but I think it's going to get chunky. Maybe the "natural lemon flavor" is refined enough that it wont, I don't know. I don't have either ingredient on hand to try it for science.
It's not literally 7up mixed with milk, but Milkis is a fairly popular drink in Korea, and can regularly be found in vending machines—or at least could when I lived there in the mid '00s.
The description of this combo being similar to lassi made it instantly 180 from vile to tasty in my mind. Now how long until I find myself buying 7up and milk at the store..
Second, given when this add is from, it is likely that the milk consumed by many who read this ad was close to or equivalent to the best "artisan farmer" organic milk you can find today, and the 7-Up was likely still using pure cane sugar rather than high-fructose corn syrup.
Not wholesome, but also not the toxic sludge it would be today.
The swill milk scandal was a major adulterated food scandal in the state of New York in the 1850s. The New York Times reported an estimate that in one year 8,000 infants died from swill milk.
I'm happy that their food ingredients were such high quality back then. Leads me to wonder how the heck they spiraled downward into eating hot dog jello.
The product, originally named "Bib-Label Lithiated Lemon-Lime Soda", was launched two weeks before the Wall Street Crash of 1929. It contained lithium citrate, a mood-stabilizing drug, until 1948.
I was a kid growing up in 80s Japan & they had this drink called “Calpis” and it was milk and orange soda. And yes, the Japanese pronounced it like “cow piss”. I hated it.
Calpis isn't carbonated tho, at least none of the Calpico branded stuff I've had. Milkis is very similar and is carbonated, so it would probably be closer to this. Personally I like both Calpico and Milkis, they are definitely not my favorite but they are good to have every once in a while, owing especially to their unique taste.
We also had a milk-orange jus drink in france in the 2000's. Absolutly disgusting. Danao, launched in 1998, nerver consumed by anyone, still available today!
It sounds like the end result would be similar to a French soda, which is delicious. I don't love the flavor of 7up, so that wouldn't be my first choice, but dairy and soda aren't a new combination.
led my mind on a train of thought and I was curious how infant mortality has improved over the years so I found this graphic:
I'm most interested in the colorful squiggly lines that show a downward trend in infant mortality over the years, I'm not interested or care about the racial disparities, and I have no idea what that black jagged line going the opposite direction is.
But I'm most interested in the colorful squiggly lines that show a downward trend in infant mortality over the years.
It sounds awful. But I once took a half-empty can of diet Squirt and added it to a half glass of orange juice, and it was AMAZING. Very citrusy and actually very delicious. So - ya never know what might work.
I had some friends from the middle east that loved any drink that had citrus flavoring, like 7-up or Sprite. It's a taste they prefer to cola and other kinds of soda.
Yeah i don't know if they even make "Squirt" anymore but it was a citrusy soda that came in regular and diet flavors. Mind you I didn't buy the diet, someone else did and left a half a can in my fridge.
But if you get a chance to try it with orange juice, it's really good.
