5 Repulsive Pop Flavors

Categories: Lists

There's something really special about pop--I mean soda--I mean soda pop? Whatever you called it as a kid, it was always a sticky, messy, carbonated treat leading, inevitably, to the infamous burping wars with your siblings and friends. (Not to brag, but we could get all the way to the letter F on one burp in the AlphaBurp game.) Whether your favorite was something classic like root beer or a little more rampage-inducing like Mountain Dew, chances are you had, or still have, a go-to. Our personal favorite? The "tornado," which combined every flavor in the fountain-drink dispenser. I'm sure our parents probably thought we were a tornado after drinking that 32 oz. cavity in a cup. We researched some of the most repulsive flavors on the market now, and the kid in us just couldn't help but share them with you!

Calling all bacon fiends.
For whatever reason, bacon gum and Band-Aids weren't enough, so the folks over at Jones went ahead and stepped over the line (in our opinion wayyy over), with the gag-maker now known as Bacon Soda.

Who the heck is Beverly?
(Insert puking noise here) No, really. We heard from reliable sources, and also saw on YouTube, people's stomachs literally rejecting this bitter Coke product. Found primarily in Italy, it contains quinine, a quirky little alkaloid that has pain-killing properties--if you can keep it down. If you're stateside and making your annual pilgrimage to Epcot, you can find Beverly on the fountain machine at Club Cool.
