Title: Race and beverages
Post by: J Bananas on May 07, 2005, 06:11:21 PM
whatsup folks now there's been something on my mind for a while and while someone will probably take it as racist i dont give a fuck. but i been noticing lately that black people drink alot more fruit beverages than whites, i know were all the same as humans so im wondering what it is, because there definetly is a variation in what peole of different colors buy. I've noticed that white people tend to prefer root beer, coke, ginger ale, pepsi, more darker dinks while black people are always buying orange soda, fruitopia, little apple juice bottles, country time, etc...Do other people notice this or do I spend too much time hanging around liquor stores? I'm interested as to what influences drink decision making for different races seeing as there obviously is a dfference.

I used to drink Flavor Aid, but once I started making my own money, shit I decided that I would rather have only 3 packs of Kool-Aid for a dollar rather than have 8 packs of Flavor Aid for a dollar.

On the real though, I noticed white people are unwilling to try many things, and one thing they stick to is soda. Black people like more fruity drinks, and we Latinos, well, we like fruits, vegtables, Coronas, Tequila, Rum, and well most anything with alcohol. So it's all good. whatever people like, that's their business, I stick to my Kool-Aid.

I used to like Dr. Pepper, but I hardly drink pop anymore. If I drink it, I get that Jones Soda stuff.

Otherwise, it's strictly Gatorade, milk, Nantucket Nectar, or berry Juicy Juice. I used to have some nasty looking teeth cause I don't have enamal like everyone else, and drinking carbonated stuff just makes it feel like my mouth is getting wrecked. It doesn't help that I smoke a pack a day either.

They used to look bad. Now I just have to brush a lot to keep them from getting yellow. I had the worst time with my teeth. I had 12 pulled cause they didn't come in on their own. I had braces for 4 years. I don't even know why I still smoke. Shit was terrible. You wouldn't want to see them if I had a picture anyways. I'm all good now though.

First of all, you're not denying you love the sweet pruny taste of Dr. Pepper. There's always exceptions though, and you can brag to your friends now why you're that much more down with black folks than the rest of those fools perpetratin tha game.

Most fruit drinks have just as much sugar as a sodie pop.  I think Sobe has a bunch of organic natural no preservatives type drinks too tho.  I always laugh when I see people drinkin the white one, it looks like cum.
