Olvi has vanilla cola

Post by Hank W. » Sat Jan 26, 2008 7:21 pm

Well, spotted that in my local K, so had to buy to try. Might be disgusting (I'm more partial to pommac and mountain dew), but I doubt it can be more disgusting than Lidl's cola. (I drink rather even Afri-cola and that is bad)


Cheers, Hank W.

It's ok.... but I won't drink it, because they don't have the diet version...

my dreams of vanilla coke had vaoprized..but whats the deal with the mention of the Dew?? I am curious?
Now that takes me to the disgusting subject of Dr. Pepper and Mr. Pibb... As much as I used to hate them ( tasted like toothpaste-cola and a cough-syrup drink)..
Is there a chance that you could encounter them in vague places like Behnfords or the KKamppi..?? :roll:

Dr. Pepper is available in just about any Citymarket. Mr Pibb you'll never find and I've seen Dew
somewhere, but don't remember where.

Olvikola? Ewww.

I don't think I've seen any DP other than in cans and .5 liter bottles. Seems like I saw 1.5 liter bottles in Stockholm. Tallinn was already selling 2 liter bottles back in 2000. Behnfords has Dr. Pepper Zero and I'll stop in for a treat when I'm in the big city. I buy DP from a machine at school, but it has a "less sugar" recipe. I've seen "original" some place, but I can't remember where. It's too early for me to try to think. :lol: I have no idea why I thought I should even try to at this hour.

Umm, I vaguely remember starting a thread on Olvi vanilla cola last year when it was branded as Lordi Vanilla Cola.

Perhaps I dreamt it.

Was it not a nightmare?

OK, can say that after tasting it, it really is... hrm... not *that* disgusting, but a bit too much... something. I was thinking the taste would be excellent making popsicles.

Nope, neither dream, nor nightmare ... but actually a true fact ...

Mountain Dew has been available at least in the local Minimani here in Vaasa. I’m not sure about its availability now, though, since I don’t buy soda pop all that often... but I recall fairly well when it appeared on the shelves some years ago as I had heard of the brand before but never seen it “live”.
