Where’s the study, Simon? Where is it?? I must know!!
Is... is this Skynet?
Ramune is pronounced "Ra-Moo-Nay"
Not "Ramun"
Sigh the end of days
One of the first such drinks I am aware of was invented by quack physician-dentist "Doctor" Samuel Birley Rowbotham, the flat earth promoter. It was called something like "Dr. Birley's Mixture" (or something like that). I actually found ads for it in digital archives of 19th century newspapers (or maybe they were medical journals, I don't remember lol). Details on its flavor are scant, but IIRC it may have resembled Dr. Pepper. No, I am not confabulating. I swear. Google it. It was one of the first "phosphate sodas", which were a popular item at period druggists. Phosphoric acid is still a common ingredient in colas today. I haven't watched the video yet, so there's a chance you covered this, but I'm leaving this comment anyway. This historical nexus should be remembered!
People centuries ago: "This tastes nice. Must be a cure for something!"
Me today: pizza tastes good, makes me feel good. Nuff said.
“Cough cough mercury.”
No, it was more like, "This seems to have some slight health benefits. Market it as a cure for cancer."
@Stumme-40203 wait... does mercury taste good????
Centuries ago? The whole chinese traditional medicine is based on that... that and exotic animals parts
TLDR: "Soft" drinks are the opposite of "hard" drinks, hard drinks being drinks with alcohol in them. I.e. hard cider etc.
Yeah, I thought everyone knew that.
@@jd-no7rwdef did not. Had NO idea why they called them soft drinks.. mikes hard lemonade didnt even make me think ‘well why do they call it hard?’
This is what I always deduced without any actual validation.
No one calls them hard drinks though. Just drinks
I'm pretty sure this is the first youtube sponsored ad read I've ever actually wanted. Why yes, I do need a pdf editor that doesn't suck.
Birch beer is a tragically underrated flavor of soda. I make it a point to not drink soda regularly (it's a treat, not a staple) but when I do, birch beer with real cane sugar is a favorite.
It straight up tastes like wintergreen and I love it!
Traditional sassafras rootbeer (not sarsaparilla as they erroneously said) is my all-time favorite soda. Unfortunately it can only be found at specialty soda shops.
Agreed!
I prefer Root Beer; Hires if I can find it.
@@navret1707 Americana rootbeer is my favorite (if I can find it). It's the only rootbeer that still uses sassafras to my knowledge. It's a slightly different taste than modern rootbeer, but much better and more complex in my opinion.
Hearing him say Ramune made my neck snap lol
Yeah, it hurt my ears too.
Same.
My head nearly exploded
ラムネ...
Although I am sure whoever the first native English speaker who heard "lemonade" rendered into ramune also snapped their neck.
Re-Myoon 🤣🤣🤣🤣
In beverages, "soft" means sweet or not fermented. It comes from brewing, where fermented juice tastes sharp or harsh compared to raw/plain juice. Raw sweet juice has a softer feel in the mouth/palate.
Heard you can only buy 7.5 oz cokes in Minneapolis/St Paul because it's Mini-soda.
Ha! But i feel like this one would be entirely lost on the brits, you know how they insist on mispronouncing everything.
Fun fact the toothbrush was invented in Missouri, otherwise it would've been called a teethbrush
Get out
😂
@@brandonberner5467 are you just pulling our teeth on this, or is this actually true? Maybe a follow up video documenting this, if true.
For every soldier: bottles of Coke, packs of Lucky Strikes, and a Zippo lighter. Not self-serving at all.
Don't forget the chocolate bars.

Cans of Beer as I mention in a Comment -- in WW2 the I.G. Farben HQ in Frankfurt was not bombed, being preserved to be the Abrams HQ bldg for U.S. Army in W. Germany
(I.G. Farben are best known as the makers of Zyklon B ~~~)
& the Licher Brauerie near Gießen was also preserved from bombing
Can't deny for just one moment makes you think: damn, where do I sign up?
And they were greatly appreciated at the time
“Whats soft about them?” Your teeth if you drink them often enough
Some people don’t have teeth problems.. actually seemed like a good question for me. Just saying
I brush once a day, no floss.. 39 years old.. missing only 1 wisdom tooth
I drink water and soda.. that’s basically it..
Best comment yet.
The term “soft drinks” probably dates back to prohibition.
Apparently I'm not normal. I specifically avoid most carbonated drinks because I don't like the feel of it in my mouth. The only pop I do like to drink is A&W's root beer, and I learned recently one of the ingredients in it is a natural detergent, causing it to fizz way more and making it neccessary to carbonate it less. It still gets 2-4 inches of foam in every cup.
This is not an insult: you could potentially be autistic.
A tell-tale sign of autism is evaluating foods by “mouth feel” (not the same as texture). If you find this as something you do frequently, do some research on symptomatic characteristics.
Godspeed!
This is exactly me. The feel of the carbonation is almost painful. A&W was fine, though, and I loved the foam. Now I know what some of the difference is i guess, i never knew about this detergent thing.
It's not nearly as good as it used to be, A&W. I stopped being interested in it sometime between 1996 and 2004. I don't know what happened to it.
A&W is passable substitute for HIRES! Hires is what I grew up with. Hires Root Beer or Birch Beer.
Thats funny man @Exandria
@@Exandriainteresting, but mouth feel is major part of wine and beer tasting.
The "soft drink" has no drugs or alcohol. Coca Cola originally had cocaine and was a headache remedy. Dr Pepper started as a way to deliver medicines.
7-Up originally contained, and is named for, lithium citrate. It's now used as a mood stabilizer and treatment for bipolar disorder.
A little fact check on a can of Coke having the equivalent of 10 tbsp of sugar. In the US, it's 3 tbsp (39 g carbs/sugars) per can and less than 3 tbsp (34.98g carbs/sugars )per can in the UK. 1 tbsp of sugar has 13 g of carbohydrates.
16:48 aluminum cans have a plastic inner liner, thus everything is in plastic or glass. Aluminum cans are just a container for the plastic bag.
There's a video by the UA-camr Chemteacherphil in which he dissolves the metal can (using NaOH solution) to reveal the plastic liner.
Yes, the film or plastic coating is apparent?
The can is to stop the plastic from exploding the plastic to keep metal from leeching into the drink.
@@thesuncollective1475
If you etch away the aluminum, that is what is left. Do be careful if you try that as the NaOH is a very strong base, it is used for turning fat into soap, and the process not only releases a lot of heat the bubbles are hydrogen. Which is a tad flammable.
It has since been revealed that the inner plastic liner is full of bpa - bisphenol A - which is a no-no plastic in any other container. Sure, many things are bad for you, but this is proven to be a bad one.
12:16 The channel: Our Own Devices makes excellent often detailed videos about a wide range of devices both modern and older items/devices, even a wide range of military devices. As a lover of more biological and geological things he made me really look forward to his videos.
In Finland during the prohibition 'hard tea' meant tea with booze.
Had no idea other countries outside the US had prohibition. Bonus fact
In US we call that a Hot Toddy
I'm beginning to think Simon does this on purpose 🤣
Quinine: kwī-nine
Ramune: rah-moo-nay
Mispronounced words drive people to comment.
More comments on a video causes the UA-cam algorithm to move the video up.
Therefore, it is entirely possible that Simon mispronounces words intentionally. But since he natively speaks British English instead of American English, I honestly think it’s just the way he speaks.
It's almost like British English pronounces things differently.
@@SilverionX neither of those words are pronounced different in British English, you git.
Outside of all the "general" stuff, the thing that really blew my mind was when my Scottish almost-stepfamily referred to full-fat Coca Cola as "JUICE"! It took me far too long to realise they weren't asking about Tropicana or even Vimto, but frickin' Coke.
"Full-fat"? You mean "regular". There is no fat in coca cola.
@@wmdkitty considering that people commonly refer to fat as where all the flavor comes from in real food, "full-fat" can easily be understood as full original flavor with no regard for healthiness. and here its clearly being used for that emphasis, as "juice" is commonly used to refer to beverages that that are usually far healthier than a Coke.
I read that at least three times as well. I've never heard original flavor referred to as "full fat," and I certainly wouldn't guess that's what it meant. Like the other respondent, I'd assume that someone didn't know that Coca Cola has no fat, just a load of sugar, which is far more unhealthy than fat, but I digress. Full-fat vs. skim milk, yes. Full-fat vs. low-fat yogurt, yes. Full-fat vs. diet Coca Cola, we've got a communication problem.
@morrigan908 @wmdkitty Fair enough, and fair assumption. "Full fat" was more often said than "regular" etc when I was growing up.
@@jordanwalker2804same. It’s still widely used in Scotland to this day. “Full fat” is not meant to be taken literally. It’s quite clear that sugary drinks makes you fat and so it’s referred to as full fat.
Glass bottles need to make a come back
Plastic does all kinds of nasty things in the environment, not to mention the micro-plastics INSIDE you, whereas glass just turns into eg sea glass
A beach covered in sea glass is a heck of a lot nicer than one covered in plastic
but a beach covered in recently broken glass bottles is a heck of a lot less nice to try to walk across than either
@@bobjoe1593 Its also easier to recycle
What is wrong with microplastics? They occur naturally as well.
@@drg9812 You would think that, but melting glass is almost as expensive as creating new glass. Here in Belgium and neighboring countries, for some bottles, we pay a deposit, and after use, you can return them to the store to retrieve that deposit. The bottles get cleaned and reused, which is a good way to recycle glass. But for everything else, an aluminum can is the greener choice.
As kid in the 60's ~ 70's there used to be pop machines that dispensed 8 and 16oz.bottles. The machine had a glass door down the right side and allowed you to pull one bottle after you put your 15 cents in. Also used to collect 16oz. bottles from the side of the road and turn them in for the 2 cents and buy penny candy.
Sarsaparilla doesn't make rootbeer! It is sassafras root bark that makes rootbeer. Sarsaparilla was sometimes an additive, but usually is it's own drink, fittingly named sarsaparilla.
The roots of sassafras smell strongly of rootbeer, though getting the flavor right requires several other spices.
My husband lives getting the sticks, and he makes tea from them. I have no clue if it is branches or roots.
@@kreiner1 the roots make rootbeer, but the greener sticks make a nice lemony, floral herbal tea. And the leaves taste like fruit loops, and can apparently be used in gumbo.
I only get the chance to collect sassafras when I visit my lake house with my family (maybe twice a year if I'm lucky). Dispite only a 2 hour drive difference, it doesn't grow anywhere where I live in Fort Worth, TX.
Thanks for the information
While growing up, my grandmother used to make Sassafras tea and we visited the local A&W drive-in. Miss those days. Don't remember just when, maybe 20 or 25 years ago, sassafras was banned by the Food and Drug Administration because it contains safrole, a compound with potentially toxic effects. Many root beer bottlers had to reformulate with a replacement for the sassafras and the taste changed. Some manufactures may have added processes to remove the safrole.
@@freelance1213 I recently found out that the reason they were testing safrole in the first place was because it was used medicinally for a long time. In testing for how safe it was as a concentrated medicine, they found that mice had a higher chance of contracting liver cancer. But of course to get anywhere near that much safrole from drinking rootbeer, you'd be having other problems.
TLDR: They weren't testing for how safe safrole was in rootbeer by using absurd concentrations, they were testing how safe concentrated safrole was as a drug.
Americana brand rootbeer still uses sassafras, and it is by far my favorite brand. Unfortunately it can only be found at specialty soda shops.
A friend of mine had a horse that drank soda from a bottle. The horse would take the bottle by the neck and raise his head to guzzle it down 😂😂😂😂
I have also seen dogs and cats drink soda; so at least some other animals are crazy like us 😼
My local convenience store owner calls them poison.
I call water poison
He isn't wrong.
Nah, hard drinks (aka alcohol) is literal poison.
So it's an apothecary, then.

You could say he said "effortlessly".
Effortlessly!
Not funny?
Ok, I'll take my ball and go home.
The small town in Northern California where I lived in the mid 80's the pharmacy there still had an old-fashioned soda fountain. It was the first time I ever had a real cherry coke.

Why the fack didn't he just say "4 Cadbury Cream Eggs"? 🤣
It's not true anyway, he mixed up teaspoons and tablespoons. A can of Coca-Cola has 1.5 Cadbury eggs' worth of sugar (which should totally become the main unit for measuring sugar in food lol)

The over-consumption of sugar-sweetened soft drinks is associated with obesity, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, dental caries, and low nutrient levels. A few experimental studies reported the role sugar-sweetened soft drinks potentially contribute to these ailments, though other studies show conflicting information. According to a 2013 systematic review of systematic reviews, 83.3% of the systematic reviews without reported conflict of interest concluded that sugar-sweetened soft drinks consumption could be a potential risk factor for weight gain.
high fructose corn syrup being even worse -- it dates from Tricky Dick Nixon bringing in a cotn = maize subsidy ahead of 1972 reëlection

Cattle are not made to eat corn, so only beef steers get it -- longer-lived milk cows do not get it
Even if it wasn't I still avoid soda as much as I can. The main reason I avoid it is because it screws up my already bad insomnia.
I love RC Cola. I am from Pennsylvania and visited the bottling factory on a school trip. I can't get RC Cola around here, much of the time.
we have a thick-walled 19th C. bottle with a hemispherical bottom
so it can only be stored on its side, keeping the cork moist & firm
Soda cans have a plastic lining to prevent or at least lessen the effect of carbonic acid dissolving metal. That plastic lining has it's own controversy however.
"Ra-myoon" It's rah-moo-neh, Simon :P
Gairaigo "Lemonade"
Yeah that bugged me too
Yeah it was pretty painful

As I finish my third can of Dr Pepper, I concur
I immediately thought of Gilles once the seltzer bottle came up. So, not surprised at the authorship reveal.
@14:57 If I ever figure out what it is that makes plain fizzy water taste better, I will let you know, because I cannot stand the taste of sparkling water! When I was on exchange to Germany, they served sparkling water every day in the mess, but on one particular day we were late coming in and the water had sat for so long it lost all carbonation. I was so happy that I almost cried.
"Why do we love soda?" let me answer that with a movie quote "BUUUUUBBBBLLLLLESS!!! big bubbles, shiny bubbles, tiny bubbles; my bubbles."

Yeah, in Texas, everything's a "coke." Can you get me a can of coke from the fridge? What kind do you want? We have Dr. Pepper and Mt. Dew. (I do laugh at the people mocking our culture and tradition here in the South. There's no need to be unkind. Thanks! 🙋🏻♂️)
It’s all Coke in my family too. Kentucky/South Carolina
I know my dad wants Diet Pepsi and I’ll ask my mom, “What kinda Coke do you want? Big Red or Diet Dr. Pepper?” I’m sure you understand exactly what I mean.
All sodas are a "coke" on the Lonestar State!
As in all things, Texas is wrong and bad
It may be hypocritical of me, since I call every type of facial tissue Kleenex, but calling all sodas, even non-colas, Coke, is akin to calling all motorized vehicles on the road Fords. It's just confusing to me.
"the name of the place? Uh.... Bob's Country Bunker."
"What kind of music do you play here?"
"We have both kinds. Country and Western."😂
Wehey. First time I've heard Crayford mentioned outside of Crayford. Technically London nowadays though
The advertisement broke my brain
They add some acid to offset the sugar sweetness? How about just make it less sweet?
Heretic
That first mention of cocaine gave definite BB vibes
Here i am watching this while i enjoy a cold homemade kombucha...fizzy, sweet and sour...yum!
The combination of various Schweppes beverages and London Dry Gin are truly a match made in Heaven!!
I’m very proud of Simon for the way he has grown from treating Danny like a slave in his basement to letting this new guy get even a chunk of his video. Look at the importance of unionizing.
Interview for the guy doing the ad... Simon: say "effortlessly". The guy: effortlessly. Simon: You're hired!
He's actually Simon's boss
Pop is still a popular term in the UK and has been for decades, much more than the bland term "fizzy drinks". Kids waiting for the "pop man" to pick up your empty glass bottles and deliver new pop was second only to the ice cream man in many neighbourhoods.
Thought you would of known that!
I have watched a coulpe vids on soda and both missed one age of the opening on the can, the dreaded finger trap. It would have been in the early 1970s that someone came up with putting 2 raised bumps on the can top, surrounded by a weak rim, you would push the small bump down into the can to release the pressure then push the larger bump down to leave an opening for drinking. The second olpening was the diameter of a kids finger and fairly sharp edged.
I stick with mineral water whenever possible because it tastes better. Add black current or elderberry syrup to it & it’s a healthier treat.
It’s wild that we never questioned what this meant growing up.
If you look up the show Dr Stone, it has a fun creation in it that, that they do a fourth wall break to be like "this is something you can try at home, and you will be surprised how good it actually is". Don't remember the episode but it was in the first season.
Wait, the glass marble seal actually came BEFORE the bottle cap?
I always thought that was just a gimmick that that Japanese soda maker came up with to reduce litter. I guess I did find out something today.
Today i found out about ANOTHER channel
I remember a soda brand years ago
named Hires, such for Root Beer 🍺
and A&W , Root Beer, used to have
drive 🚗 ins years ago when I was
younger, being 80 now.
In the 1950's as a youngster, we had
pharmacies with soda fountains,
and one had a grill such as for burgers 🍔 and hot dogs 🌭 for about 30 cents.
We had an AW drive in in my town when I was a kid
@@calebbean1384 😊 Thanks,yes they
were fun 😁
Metal or Aluminum soda cans do not have any metal tasting affect on the drink, as the aluminum does not contact the liquid due to the lining of the inside of the can. You can dissolve a full unopened aluminum can by putting it is something like a sodium hydroxide solution and you will be left with a thin plastic bladder of sorts with the drink contained inside of it. The plastic liner is clear so the drink or soda is visible. I don't know how sturdy it is but it is enough to keep your drink safe from dissolved aluminum taste. I imagine the flavor of your drink would be revolting otherwise.
15:05 That's actually a common misconception. the tingling sensation is not from collapsing bubbles, it is the carbon dioxide being converted to carbonic acid directly on our tongues.
You can see for yourself that this is true if you pull the air directly above a freshly opened fizzy drink into your mouth. Even though no bubbles are present, since you are only sucking in gas, and no liquid, you still get a small amount of that tingling sensation (smaller because you also get a lot of air mixed in, decreasing the overall concentration of CO2)
Edit: ah, I see you mentioned it right after haha. weird that you decided to keep the part about the bubbles right before however, given that it is completely wrong.
"Re-Myoon" 😂 it's 'Ra-Mu-Nay' like Lemonade
I hate spicy foods. I don't understand why people put spice so hot you can't taste the food.
Same here. It literally hurts trying to eat it.
Everyone who likes spiciness are just closet masochists and you can't tell me otherwise.
Note: Ramune is not pronounced ramyoon, it's pronounced ra-mu-ne (rah-moo-nay), a brand name borrowing the word Lemonade from English. Lemonade was brought to Japan in carbonated form, so it has become a genericized brand name for soda, much like coke.
Don’t forget Moxie! It’s well known Maine, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and the rest of the upper north east.
I always find it interesting that soft drinks were initially marketed as a health tonic. But they had to abandon the health tonic angle before they achieved huge sales success.
The guy who invented carbonated water founded Unitarianism? That explains a lot…
The Cobb design of a marble and chamber are still in use in Asian drinks you can find in many countries and many brands.
It’s always very interesting to have.
Fruit juice is more popular than soft drinks? That’s shocking.
The term "lemonade" in the US refers to a non-carbonated drink. In the UK, it refers to a carbonated drink.
I have a soda siphon and I love it.
Opening Ramune bottles can be a trick. I always love introducing people to them snd watch them cause a ramune fountain.
I will never look at my Ramune the same way again.
En France, L'eau Mineral, avec gaz ou
sans gaz. 😅
Man I don't even know if that last thing is irony any more. That's just sad.
Im gonna make an educated guess. No tapping a can doesnt directly reduce fizz, but you may get that impression because nor does shaking a can make it fizz excessively when opened.
You can shake it all you want the can remains pressurised, the CO2 remains firmly locked away.
Im fairly certain you can still get a burst of fizz if the liquid is still agitated when you release the pressure due to massively increasing the potential for nucleation in the turbulent fluid, and this is probably why people get drinks fizzing up all over the place, but as long as you let the liquid settle, say, while going through a can tapping ritual, there is no reason I can think of that youd see much mess.
I hate carbonated drinks. I refuse to drink them. I don’t like the pain.
'soda' derives from Old English sogoda meaning juice, as in fruit juices. One curious use was in the term elf sogoda (elf juice) a frothy bubbly deposit found on plants which is created by the froghopper insect.
I don't drink soda. Maybe 1 or 2 cans or glasses a year. I prefer basic cold water or coffee w/creamer or tea - no sugar
In New Orleans, everything is “Cold Drink”

Huzzah for Royal Crown, the first with aluminum cans...LOL. Difficult to find these days, but still prefer it to the big two.
Alcohol = hard drink as in “hard cider” or “hard lemonade”.
I absolutely love coke zero products. Idk what they did but it took me 2 or 3 days to be convinced these are regular sodas. It was what got me into using Splenda instead of sugar. Like i owe so much weight loss to coca cola. Who else can say that? Haha with my work I literally lost almost 100 pounds in a year and half. I have a labor intensive job though, I do recognize not everybody has the luxury of working out while working
Splenda is sucralose, Coke Zero is aspartame. Sucralose is what is called a stool softener and can lead to an overly close need for a toilette. Or even clean underwear.
@@EthelredHardrede-nz8yvnot all substitutes affect everyone the Same!
I wish it did🙄
As someone who detests the feeling of carbonated fizz in my mouth I found this topic interesting.
One can imagine a future where CocaCola reverts back to the original recipe.
That would be one positive on the side of decriminalization.
There are already soft drinks with 1000mg of THC available at the local dispensary.
That is a plant-derived sedative, the other is a plant-derived stimulant.
On a side note... alcohol is a straight up plant-derived poison, and yet here we are...😊
14:42 Although public domain today, when introduced today's default beverage-can top was pronounced "stay tab". Humble Falls City Beer was the first because they were willing to experiment with this alien concept in exchange for several million can tops.

We have natural sparkling water in New Zealand and it gets made into a local fizzy drink called L&P ( tip say each letter, symbol out in order) so L and P

Yep. Deep South. “What kinda Coke do ya want?”
Mead has been marketed as a prototype of soft drinks for a long time and no one knows when and when it was invented. The oldest written evidence of mead production is from ancient Mesopotamia. And modern soft drinks can be seen in a way to imitate mead.
Why do I like soda? Burps. I love that first big burp right after the first chug of an ice cold Dr. Pepper.
Hehe. My grandson, never had any kind of soft drink until he was 3. His mother gave him a couple sips of Sprite. He has called it Spicy Water ever since. Now I do as well... 😁
Coke was originally was diluted with water. Soda water was later mistake by another
"5th after water, tea, fruit juice, and coffee" damn what else is left seems like almost everything falls into one of those. maybe sports drinks or energy drinks? but I think those are just offshoots of soft drink. so what your saying is it ranks pretty much last.
Grew up in Colorado and called it pop. In oklahoma, where I live, it is coke. No matter what kind, they just ask what kind of coke.
