Sometimes something like this is good. Not this time. It tastes kind of like pop made fron nasty well water or something.

shieldgenerator7, hi, and welcome to the forums!

I haven't seen you about, so you must be new here. I hope you enjoy your stay, and the many personalities here in our little online family! Eek! Some are more prickly than others, but I trust you'll find your way! Have a simply GREAT day!

Bacon Soda - also sucks.

I am disappoint but not surprise. Do any of the sweet ones taste ok? Shieldgen, report back when you try it.

Oh man, I'm a sucker for anything new like this. I would try every single one if they had them locally here. I do like the Jone's sodas, don't know if they make them anymore though as they stopped carrying them at my local supermarket.

No no no. Nothing even close. Jones delicious. This is nasty.

Y’all clearly arose as a contraction of you-all. Y’all fills in the gap created by the absence of a separate second person plural pronoun in standard modern English. This absence arose when thou disappeared, and you came to signify both singular and plural. This absence similarly gave rise to the phrases you-uns, you lot, or you guys. (Cf. yous, an informal plural second-person pronoun formerly used in New York City, still common in Ireland, often rendered "youse" in Australia and New Zealand, and yinz, an informal plural second-person pronoun commonly used in Western Pennsylvania and the Appalachians); or vosotros ["you others"], the Peninsular Spanish second-person plural, the latter having arisen when vos [originally the second-person plural] became the prevailing polite second-person singular term.)

Though the you all contraction argument may make sense when considering current-day vernacular, it is prudent to consider the vernacular which existed at the time which y’all was likely invented. By the late 18th century, Scots-Irish immigrants had settled in the Southern United States. It is well established that Scots-Irish immigrants frequently used the term ye aw. Some evidence suggests that y’all could have evolved from ye aw due to the influence of African slaves who may have adapted the Scots-Irish term.

There is evidence that the original spelling was ya'll. The spelling of ya’ll could have originated from the contraction of ya-all because ya was a common spoken slang form of the word you. 19th and 20th century authors like William Faulkner, Ernest Hemingway, and Carson McCullers used ya’ll. Though becoming less common, the spelling of ya’ll is still used within the Southern United States.

i would remind thou that the English language was decimated centuries ago; frankly I blame the Normans, but to each thine own. I should point out, however, when you insult the South, you insult Scotland. When you insult Scotland, Duncan pulls a claymore from his raincoat and severs your head from your body. In the end, there can only be one (language). Y'all know what that one is.

Thanks for the welcome Serbia! As you all know, this is the first time I've ever posted on this forums, and this welcome is gold!

Totally agreed FT, altho I don't know if I'd try bacon. I have an (un)natural fear that it'd just turn out to be bacon grease

Wait... how do I order this stuff?! There's no paypal button!
