This was basically my 1st thought as well, stuff is awful. It really shouldnt be possible to mess up lemonade so maybe its actually impressive what theyve done on some level.

From the comments, it seems they have baking soda, just under different branding.

Whats wrong with Calypso?

Other than being over priced, it tastes good for the most part.

Their blue lemonade is some of the worst blue lemonade on the market, but the blackberry and the purple (has some kind of tropical themed name that escapes me) are top notch.

It looks like the strawberry flavor of Fluff, which I've never eaten. The regular Fluff was a childhood classic for me.

Am I the only one that has never heard of Calypso? What is that and why is there so much.

Usually they try to justify it by claiming that they have cuisines from all over the world, as if that isn't the case for everywhere else too.

As an American, I have never heard anyone ever say we have the best food. If anything, we argue amongst ourselves over which other countries have the best food (Italy, Mexico, China, Japan, etc).

We all tend to agree that British food sucks though, despite like 90% of us probably never trying it before.

Haha, thats pretty funny. The whole idea of comparing between entire countries when it comes to cuisine, particularly in our modern homogenized world, is a very bizarre concept to me in the first place.

Who in the hell is in a foreign country and in dire need of bazooka gum?

Every time I go to Italy the shit that my family requests the most of that I bring is chewing gum. I usually just get packs of Wrigley's. I don't know why bazooka is there. It might have been the most popular at one point but nobody really uses that stuff anymore. American Gum is just strangely popular in Europe I guess.

We tend to agree. Problem is its more profitable to use processed food items, so corporations take shortcuts. Also, most people dont check the ingredients, and therefore, they dont know that corporations are adding sugar to everything in an effort to make their food more addicting, because honesty, why would someone suspect that sugar is being added to stuff like bread, or tomato sauce?

I have eaten Mexican food in the US. It's not like I've never been.

I'm also not claiming It's impossible to get decent food. However, I think the quality of what the average American eats is fairly dire.
