Fanta: Your Nazi Drink
 
:lol: I think it's funny to look back, and look at them again today.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanta

Fanta was invented by the Nazis since that the Coca-Cola company in Nazi Germany had trouble with Britain and France distribution. Naughty Coke! :nono:

Rather, in an effort to preserve Coca-Cola company assets and protect its people by way of keeping local plants operating, he formulated a new soft drink when it became impossible to produce the company's flagship product.

It was still invented in the Third Reich though. :p

Exactly. I didn't care about the fanta itself, but about the history seems funny to look at.

It's a proven fact, liberals prefer Pepsi over Coke.

I personally think it's the flat, stale, impotent taste and the blue can.

Re: Fanta: Your Nazi Drink
 
Agreed, coke is rich and excellent in flavor... while in the meantime Pepsi is too "fucky-fucky" and surgary as fuck.

i like pepsi.......have drank it ever since i was a little kid at my grandparents house (they would let me have soda, by parents wouldnt........)

Coke has a certain bite to it. I saw one poor bastard take a big gulp, and his eyes started to water.

Coca Cola is a man's drink!

Stalker, you were brainwashed. Put down the Pepsi products, you knave! I don't even want to see a bloody Gatorade around you. Henceforth, you're on a strict Powerade and Coke regiment.

i will admit that Barq's has bite........but i dont like coca cola

You are going to be so dissapointed when you come to the Netherlands... though on second thought I don't think there will be any non-alcoholic beverages on the menu. :naughty:

I'm glad you linked me to that Snopes article. Up until just now, I had thought that stuff was true about Fanta.

False, I prefer Dr.Pepper.
Then Coca-Cola...

Then Pepsi. (funny how Quebec is the only place in North Am. that drinks more Pepsi per capita than coca-cola) (but then, yea... the blue can...)

:p


I actually tried once some Fanta, my dad was inspecting a dutch boat, he brought back a can of lemonade fanta. I felt authoritarian while drinking it.;)

Re: Fanta: Your Nazi Drink
 
The only Fanta I've ever tried was Orange...have had better orange drinks. Dunno bout the other flavors though.:confused: BTW, I could't tell if the orange Fanta was made by nazi's or not....not that I really care, since I never drink it LOL :lookaround:

fanta is good , specially in a glass bottle. on the topic of companied started durig the Nazi era in Germany, lets not forget VW. the original beetle , originally known as the KDF wagen, was a design comisioned directly by Adolf Hitler as a car for the working man that would be cheap and able to go fast on the autobahn and its engine not freeze on cold german winters. VW is still around and very succesfull. many dont realise also that Volkswagen literally stands for "people's car"

Why wouldn't any realize that? Maybe on your side of the pond it is like that. Over here, every body knows what Volkwagen stands for.
And is it any controversiol with its meaning:confused:

Bah, fanta, tango and pepsi all suck.

Coke is okay.

Sprite and 7up for the win.

The meaning is known to every Dutchmen, the reason: The Dutch translation for Volkswagen is the very same. :p

The whole VW thing by Hitler is thought in history classes in primairy and secundairy school too, so there shouldn't be many people out there who don't know about it except uneducated people or those who kinda forget about history classes.

Re: Fanta: Your Nazi Drink
 
Yeah, Coke is way better than Pepsi. :p

It's funny, though, because I just read about the whole Fanta and the Nazi thing on Snopes the other day.
