Pm of October is October of #soda.

It's the L@@K RARE! combo of Fantas. This vile container is filled with highly questionable banana chocolate soda. You read that right.

The smell is really disturbing, it really smells like childhood banana split ice cream. But that's where the good parts end. It has what I'd call an extreme artificial taste. It's like they were trying to do "fresh" and "chocolate" at the same time, giving it this extremely weird fruity taste that has after taste of how I'd guess a completely moldy bottle of soda would taste.

This may have the honor of being the worst ever soda I have ever tasted, beating all those crappy store brand colas and other horrors.

Look what I've got! The elusive Fanta 환타 멜론, Fanta Melon. I've been hunting this for some time now and got lucky today.

I first tasted the melon soda in Japan but these appear to be popular elsewhere in Asia too. This is the Korean take on the topic.

I don't know what melon this is supposed to taste like, definitely not water melon. I think Cantaloupe melon is the closest and the picture on the can also reminds me of it.

As usual, the melon taste is green in an Asian drink. Funny how different soda colorings have different meanings around the world, here I'd expect pear soda to be this color.

This is relatively sweet and the taste is pretty fresh, if it's artificial, it's very close to the real thing.

Anyway, so glad to get one of these rare Fantas around here off the list.
