12 Sep 2006An important part of my American odyssey is my persistent search for soft drinks. Any semi-regular reader of this blog should probably know that already. The US is the motherlode of carbonated beverages and sweetened sodas, so it shall come as no surprise that I’ve been consuming a wide variety of these drinks in the past few weeks.
The first one I’ll talk about is Cream Soda. I don’t know why this never made it to Israel – it’s like a normal soda but with a creamy aftertaste that probably comes from the cane sugar – or the cane sugar substitute, I suppose.
The first one I had, and still my favorite, was Jones Cream Soda. The Jones sodas are available in Starbucks and the occasional posh deli, and are really realy good. I had both the regular Cream Soda and the Orange and Cream, and they both rocked. The non-creamy artificially-sweetened diet Black Cherry was icky, though.
More cream sodas to come.

Well, there was this store in Haifa, but it closed. Someone mentioned that he can get some, and someone else told me that you can get it atBar-Ilan Uni (?). Never heard about it since.

So at first you toss a nonchalant “Oh, yeah, you can get some in Israel too”, then backtrack and squirm and try to weasel your way out of it with a “I know someone who said they were once told there was a store who sold it, but they closed”.
For shame, Amir. For shame.

Re: There’s Cream Soda around here
I used the unobligatory word “some”, meaning from zero to filling up the universe with cans. Anyhow, I think it’s quite managable for the really wantings.
