The Knowledge For Thirst is where Kevin Fanning and Joshua Allen sit around and jaw about beverages.

Asides
A good article about Cel-Ray, at Nextbook. Do all religions have their own special beverages? I wonder. Imagine what a funny list we could make, if we were so inclined. But we're not.
- #But if they're not going to deliver the random stuff that's hard to find at every single grocery and gas station in town, I'm not 100% sure what the point is. Yes this is another veiled reference to Baja Blast, so what.
- #The folks at Second Rate Snacks are doing top notch work in the field of Beverage Research, offering insightful analysis on topics such as "Mello Yello vs Mountain Dew", "Fresca vs Squirt," and "Sunkist vs Fanta vs Crush." This is exactly the kind of scientific inquiry that is going to put America back on top.
- #I had one of these the other day. I might review it, might not. The point I want to make is that the website really stresses me out for some reason. I don't know if it's the confusing flash interface or the ultra-hype techno assault, but the panic attacks that ensue definitely provide accurate synaesthesia for the effects of the beverage.
- #Some Russian variations on the new Pepsi logo.
- #Josh I know you were ready to make the new Coke designs your special girlfriend for a while back there, so I wondered if you had opinions on the new Pepsi stuff they've been talking about at Brand New. Like here and here and here.
It's interesting that Pepsi is trying to reinvent their look by pushing it in new and different directions, whereas Coke seems to be simplifying and looking backward. What does it all mean, I wonder.

So weird, I almost posted this. I was all fired up about it until I learned that High Fructose Corn Syrup is one of the five all-natural ingredients.

!!! I thought to myself “I wonder if they are considering HFCS as natural.” But then I thought, how could they, when it has to be created in a test tube. Once again, I assume too much.

I really hope this helps out 7up in the marketplace. I’m a fan and I consider Sprite to be just a too-sweet imitation.

I think it was in Fast Food Nation where I learned the real difference between “natural” and “artificial” flavors.
Basically, artificial flavors are made entirely in a test tube, from molecules bought at the store or something.
Natural flavors are made in exactly the same way, only with molecules from a potato.

I was excited also because I thought it would be made with sugar which not only taste better(I have had both coke and 7up with sugar overseas)but is more filling. You can only drink about 8 oz. and you are totally full. I hope they change. I would drink it then.
