[picture of cream soda bottle would go here but blogger is broken]
Why is cream soda called cream soda when really it should be called vanilla soda? I don't know. The entry in Wikipedia says that in the UK it was derived from the phrase "ice cream soda". Frankly, I think a lot of the stuff on Wikipedia is made up. Like the time I looked up information about the anterior cruciate ligament and it said "One of the ligaments that attaches the shin bone to the thigh bone." Or when I was researching Lyndon B. Johnson and it said he was the illegitimate son of a Chinese massuese and was born addicted to opium. What I do know is that the Squamscot cream soda is good. Very good. Like the root beer it deserves its own comparison against its peers. I wonder if I can get my hands on some of that clear Canadian cream soda. Probably not, but in my mind thats what I judge all cream sodas against.
