Those who know me well are accustomed to my international food collection. My curiosity knows no boundaries so long as there are no raisins or dried meat involved. Most recently I have been collecting juices and sodas from around the world. I think this has to do with the nostalgic appeal of childhood juice boxes and a general distate for American soda, although I do love a cherry Coke when at the movies. Overall this new experience has been a success, although some versions were a bit too sweet, there were new favorites from fruit that I never even heard of. Plus the packaging is incredibly bright and inspiring. I now find myself coming home from class with a bowl of yogurt pretzels and juice, watching re-runs on tv - just like the good 'ol days.
