Thank You to the Soda Machine from Outer Space

I have written several times on my blog about my disgust with restaurants and their limited drink choices for me.  When I go to dinner and everybody else has multiple options for something to drink, mine was always water, diet Coke / Pepsi, or unsweetened iced tea.  There were certain fast food places that gave different options, but it was always so irritating.  Good thing I like diet Coke.  This post has been almost a year in the making, but I am just now finally getting around to sharing my thanks with the people at Coca-Cola.

I’m sure you have all seen the soda machines from outer space that feature about 5-6 different kinds of diet soda.  You can even choose a flavor to go with it (even though the flavor syrup has sugar in it).  If you haven’t seen these machines yet, then you are totally missing out because not only do they provide me with diet root beer or Dr. Pepper or Sprite or many other choices, it also provides entertainment while you watch people try to use it for the first time.

I don’t know why it took so damn long to get these machines massed produced and put into the market, but thank you.

  1. Ok, Chris. You very well may not believe this, but here goes…

    When I opened up this post to read, I didn’t. Got distracted and left it up on the screen. Last night, we went out to dinner at a burger joint.

    And I experienced these Soda Machines from Outer Space for the very 1st time!!! It was simply fantastic. And I’m still high (but not BG Hi) from the experience. Entirely awesome, and I echo what you’ve said… Thanks, Coca-Cola, and it’s about frickin’ time!!!

    Ok. That’s it.

    I leave you now, to crack open a regular can of Diet Coke in the comfort of my own home.
