Fatness First: Pepsi Mont Blanc

Pepsi has done it again. This can be added to my "Fatness First: Soda Collection". The Fall 2010 flavor is Mont Blanc. This tastes like coffee ground and a hint of chocolate, in watered down Pepsi.

Fatness First: My Soda Collection

Some of the weird, tasty, and cute sodas I’ve come across in the grocery store includes:

Sparkling Strawberry (yummy)

Sparkling Chocolate (which would be great as a float)

Tabasco designed bottle with bright red soda (no it doesn’t taste like fruit punch, it tastes like regular Pepsi, but nasty)

Fanta’s “Hip Hop” soda that is brown and supposed to be fruit punch flavor. My inner Black culture censor is telling me not to even try it-boycott-but I had to. They failed-it tastes like peach soda more than anything.

(What else would Hip Hop taste like? But we all know fruit punch is red!)

Pink ginger ale in a “Sex in the City” wrapper (it was so cute I had to get it, I never even tried it)

Japanese “Soda”-not sure what they were aiming for but the bottle was brightly decorated with Mt. Fuji and it tasted like soda flavor-sweet blue is all I can call it.

Japan makes everything marketable to men and womens’ eyes regardless of how it tastes. I do wonder why they have thought certain flavors would be tasty, and put so much emphasis to dress up the bottle. It sure does make my trips to the nearest 7-11, Lawsons, Sunkus, or Family Mart an adventure!

Fatness First: The Exclusive Pepsi Collection

Because my grandmother loves Pepsi, I have made it a hobby to collect and mail her 2 bottles of the newest Pepsi flavors, only marketed in Japan. I first started with the release of:

Cucumber Pepsi: Taste-extra sweet fruity flavors-not a cucumber taste, Color-light marine green

Blue Hawaii Pepsi: Taste-lemon/pineapple-ish flavor, Color-aqua blue

White Yogurt: Taste-should have been a soft Calpis taste, but it tasted as hard and strong as regular Pepsi despite the color-cloudy white

Shiso Pepsi (Japanese word for Perilla "mint family" herb): Taste-like fresh ginger, Color-light green

~See my brother Josh’s pictures in the August 2009 archive when he came to visit-not a fan of Shiso. Actually noone was and they sat for months in crates and the price dropped to 88yen (80 cents) a bottle. It should have been 2 for $1!~

Azuki (Red bean): Taste-sweet and weird, Color-burgundy

I wonder what we’ll drink of next…?
