I do like Root Beer. But the kind I really liked as a kid is no longer available. It was made on-site at a stand (Smokey's) in my home town of Buchanan MI, right next to the entrance to the parking lot of one of the Clark Equipment plants, and across the street from the much-inferior A&W stand. When he ("Smokey") died in the early 1970s, his recipe went with him.

Depends on what brand. Better not be Mug. ... Or anything diet. =P

Actually...it was a Mug...I prefer Barq's or A&W, but Mug was all they had. It was still good, seeing as it was the only root beer I could get. ...

A single thread about root beer? I knew you were an awesome lady for some reason, but this confirms it! Root beer is my favorite drink.

mine also,though I mostly drink diet since I dont want to get too chubby.

It used to be made from the sassafras. but it contains safrole which causes cancer and liver damage. so root beer is now completely artificially flavored.

On that note, you should add some milk to your diet...

actually, there is a lot of research to say that milk is not so good for you (assuming you are speaking of cow milk?)

you don't get a buzz from all of the sugar?
