    Did they finally kill sobe? I used to chug that stuff as a kid, tried one a few years ago, not sure if it was always that sweet, or it went the way of most good indie (that was bought up by conglomerates) beverage distributors.

      It was always that sweet. Everything we drank as kids was SUPER sweet, mostly still is. Once you break the sugar addiction and try those things again later the sweetness is shocking.

        I quit drinking pop in my late teens to early 20s. It is genuinely difficult for me to finish a single can of pop now, no idea how I drank 2 litres of it a day as a kid without getting fat or diabetic.

      As a kid? You’re making me feel old. Sobe was invented when I was an adult.

          As a 31 year old, it’s true. 30 is the mark when people are allowed to start calling you old. Welcome, tapioca is on the shelf.

        Sobe first came on my radar around 2000, imma look it up for it, because I feel you aren’t that old… Idk maybe you are old, founded in 96, bought by Pepsi in 2000.

          Yes and SoBe. It was just a popular product for a lot of drink makers in the early 2000’s. Too much sugar for me now, though.
