Hey Everyone
It's summertime in New York
and that means one thing,
Bodega sodas!
It's the time of year when it might be
a little too hot to walk down some place
or turn on your tap water and get some of the fine city water
from the public services.
So we have here,
refresco by Goya, fruit punch soda
and Jarritos?
Jarritos, from...
made in Mexico
This one's about 70 cents,
this one's about 80 cents.
This is made with 100% natural sugar.
Comes from Mexico in a glass bottle.
And this one is Goya
and this is made with High Fructose Corn Syrup
and comes to us from
Secaucus, New Jersey.
Not as exotic as Mexico
depending on how you feel about New Jersey or not
but this is from right across the street
or not street but the river
and costs 70 cents
and this is from Mexico. A third world country.
And costs about 80 cents
all the way from Mexico.
80 cents.
70 cents.
Comes in a glass bottle
and is half the price of a Coca-Cola
sometimes even more for about
actually, getting 12.5 fluid ounces.
Here is 12.
I think a coke is 12.
So you're getting more for less
in a glass bottle.
Alright, let's try it out.
Alright, first up we have the
Jarritos
I never had this before, by the way,
somebody at work said it's good (fizz)
(clang)
can opener
(smacking lips)
Yeah, it's pretty good actually
Subtle, subtle flavor
more perfumy. Tutti Frutti
and if I was back in Hawaii, I can get a 5 cent refund
Natural sugar.
Yeah, it's pretty good
(smacking lips)
Mexican water tastes nice and clean
Alright, let's try the Goya
Here we have the Goya refresco
one from the lovely land of Secaucus
(fizz)
(clang)
Tell ya, I don't feel confident about drinking this
if you've ever been to Secaucus, you know what I mean
Mexico has a lot over Secaucus
(smack lips)
This one tastes more "red"
more flavorful, more what you expect
fruit punch to taste like, not as subtle
as the other one
Mmm
Delicious Type 2 Diabetes
Ooh, stronger fruit punch
artificial
kind of flavor
I gotta say I like the Mexicans better
or, well, the Mexican drink better
Alright, so here we are,
back with the Jarritos,
much better flavor
just more of a, a natural flavor
the other one seems more carbonated,
more...you know like a ***'s perfume?
That's kind of what the other one tastes like
This one tastes more, I guess
I guess, natural is the only way to say it
I don't know, did you like this one, Camerawoman?
(nods)
Did you like the Goya one?
(shakes no)
So, it's definitely this one over the other one, right?
(nods)
Alright, yeah that's what I thought
So this is The Faustian Man
and I am endorsing Jarritos
I think you should, hope I'm saying that right
my Mexican Spanish is a little rusty
"Jarritos!"
"Hola Le Vato!"
"Me Gusta Jarritos!"
"Tutti Frutti" No that's, I just became Indian
This is why I don't do accents
Yeah, but what I'm saying is this is a very good soda
pick it up.
Alright?
And it's great on a hot summer day,
like in New York.
Skip the coke man. Get something new.
Anyway, I'm heading to Philadelphia
in a few days, I hope to have a video up on that
going to see the Royal Tombs of Ur.
They are just reopening that exhibit.
I'm very very excited about that
So, until then,
I'll see ya. Enjoy the weekend.
