review of colæ
I enjoy that my long-running idiotic idea - "if they can fortify milk and orange juice with supplemental vitamins, why can't they fortify soda, HUR HURRRR" - has become reality with the existence of Diet Coke Plus. Diet Coke with magnesium and zinc and a handful of B-vitamins thrown in. It tastes as one would expect: like Diet Coke with the faintest hint of multivitamin aftertaste. Which is fine enough, I suppose. Need to plow through a full twelve-pack before I can do a more substantive analysis.

Also, finally got around to consuming our holiday-themed novelty Jones Sodas - you know, the ones with flavors like "Turkey with Gravy". Better late than never, I suppose. They were suprisingly non-bad, on the whole, sticking mostly with vague allusions to the purported flavors than anything tongue-burstingly awful. I mean, not that I'd want to make a steady diet of consuming beverages that taste faintly of Pepto-Bismol... but I can see the "antacid-flavored soda" appeal.
