Rootbeer in all forms

Our family loves root beer. That was one hard
part of being in NC is that it wasn't as
available everywhere as it is here in Utah.
Those of you that live or have lived in
Utah know that the key ingredients to
the state are root beer, fry sauce,
ranch dressing and ice cream....very
healthy food. I have often heard people
who don't like root beer say it tastes
like toothpaste. The other day we were at the grocery store
and Charlotte saw this "root beer float"

and felt we needed to have it. They
came in a pack of 4. I am always
happy to experiment with different
types of rootbeer, but this was a little
sketchy. We came home and got out
our special rootbeer glasses, added
ice and took our first and only sip.
This drink is truly hideous to say the
least. The color itself is repulsive.
Even Charlotte and Simon thought
it was disgusting, which is a lot for
children who instantly love anything
with sugar and/or carbonation. In
this case I really don't think they
had anyone taste the drink before
bottling it up.
