I think i'm really a fan of this company, uh, they have two flavors that Ii'm really interested in one being this as I love root beer, if you've watched any videos before I've done root beer several times now, and I just love root beer. It takes me back to a place in my childhood in the early to mid-90s where we would go to Mug'N'Bun, which is a drive-in place next to Speedway in Indianapolis, it's I don't know 70 to 80 years old at this point, multiple owners and you know you just drive in kind of like Arf and barf Dog and Suds or Sonics but just, just an old school drive-in and you know they have a great pork tenderloin and hot dogs but they make their own in-house root beer it is so good and you would go get your root beer float or whatever and you know, so root beer takes me there and I like it and some root beer is absolute hogwash cow urine disgusting vile stuff, and some root beer is just an experience and wonderful so let's get some of this root beer, um what was it called, sparkling tonic into Mr. Moose.
Normal can sound.
First, let's smell it. Oh yeah, this, this, this smells just like a good, not like Mug'N'Bun's, kind of like Mug'N'Bun's, maybe um like Dog and Suds or IBC root beer.
Yeah, I'd say it's going from memory here it's probably close to Dog and Suds. I don't know if they're still around or if you can still get it in the bottles but we used to get it at the convenience store, yeah.
Get some in the Moose.
Um, I love these guys so much, and this is not sponsored at all, um these things are expensive at about three dollars a can shipped, so you know they're definitely a treat, but they do have that fiber and stuff in there which is nice I've been enjoying the orange ones I think I'm halfway through my 12-pack.
How did you smell so lovely, you can smell, you can definitely smell the vanilla in there a little.
Oh man, sorry I could sniff this all day. Let's try it. That's pleasant, um, like I said with their orange whatever it's called, it does have like a, a light taste to it. Not necessarily watered down, that would not be fair at all to say it's watered down, but it's, it's the taste you're expecting but lighter so it's not overpowering. There's no slimy sticky sugary feel because it doesn't have a lot of sugar but it still is, it's sweet enough.
Man, that is good. I need to try this with some ice cream, that would um, I feel horrible, I've dripped little drops of my precious root beer!
All right, I gotta put that down or I'm gonna drink it all. I'm gonna slurp the can, that's better, oh actually it looks like I've got some on the table too. All right we'll have to clean up, um yeah, I would buy more of this. I would absolutely buy more of this, it feels wrong paying three dollars ish for something that's 35 calories a can but I mean you are getting 36 percent of your fiber for the day, and I can, and yeah I have, I bought a 12 pack of these so I'll be trying not to drink them all, you know in a couple of days. Try to make them last, I'm definitely going to order some more though it'll be a couple of weeks probably, but yeah, Olipop man. Watching that commercial on the Buff Dudes for Olipop, because the buff dudes were sponsoring Ollipop may have been the greatest thing I've ever done. Now I kind of wonder if that fancy cereal they're always, you know, trying to promote is any good that's, that's so good. I'm gonna have some more of this. I, just sorry Mr. Moose, this is all mine!
That felt really wrong drinking it that fast, I should have savored that but I got about a half a can left. Um, yeah, like, comment, subscribe, check out the Patreon, the audio is not the best you're probably getting some of the glare off of my lenses. I'm still working on that figuring out the best angles for my lightboxes, I need to work on the sound in here, it is pretty echoey but making do just using my iPhone SE 2020.
Thanks for stopping by check out some Olipop, again not sponsored, um I don't have a discount coupon code or anything. They do have this in stores some places, go to what was it drinkolipop.com, look it up, from the store locator, see if they've got something near you. Fresh Thyme near me is supposed to have this but they didn't, instead, they had a cola one which has caffeine and the orange one which I tried and liked. So yeah, check them out, like, comment, subscribe, Patreon, doobley-do, check out other videos. I'll see you guys next time!
