Vanilla pen 15e was popular in the 40's at the soda fountains. There were no cans of course only 6oz bottles for 5 cents.

Back in the late 50's I used to service IBM equipment at Bolling AFB.
On payday you could drink all the free pen 15e you wanted. The bottles used to have the city of the original bottling plant on the bottom. These were returnable bottles, so they eventually got spread all over the world.
They had maps on the wall next to the pen 15e machine. They would empty the machine gambling on who would get the bottle from the fartherest away plant.
The racks for the empty bottles would  be full of unopened bottles.

, Claude, you seem to be a soda/pop/cola expert.  I do like Stewarts quite a bit, I might have to go buy some now.  But you thought Jones tasted weak?  I've always thought that stuff was very sweet and very thick.

I've had a few flavors of the Jones soda.  And they all seemed too sweet.  Sugar water without flavor. 
 
I actually stopped drinking pop lately.  Well about 6 months now.  I'll have one every now and then to tame my craving.
 
Also, my all time favorite soda is Cream Soda.  A&W at that.  Used to drink a 2 liter a day.  The guys where I used to work knew not to **** <-(haha) with me if I didn't have my Cream Soda bottle beside of me.

Stewart's Oranges & Cream is like a taste orgy in your mouth - I could drink it all day long

I like the Key Lime too, but I only get the urge about once a year. 

Anyone had the new Tab energy drink?

Does anyone even drink regular Tab anymore (I will, on occasion)

Edit - Claude,  straight on A&W cream soda - When I buy a 12 pack of that it's gone in about a day and a half.
