Is Name Brand ACTUALLY Better? - Blind Soda Pop Taste Test

[@stephanieflorence8109]

Okay guys, when you have your bougie Shaaaaasta party, I expect monocles, top hats, and canes. Nothing less.

[@MelissaKae]

"Who loves orange soda?" I love that throwback to the 90s!

[@Hartkid176]

I do I do I do ooh, lol. Kel!

[@michellewilliams9675]

I think what is throwing them off is that a lot of the name brands have been reducing their sugar content, throwing off the flavours. The off brands have not.

[@Sarrahp1]

Who loves Orange Soda? Kel Loves Orange soda! Is it true?! I do I do I do I do-oooo! 😘🍊

[@mrspaisley1]

His name is Cam lol

[@emmac8867]

Cam*

[@Aneeqt]

mrspaisley1 they were quoting the original... from kenan and kel an old tv show

[@Sarrahp1]

I know his name but the quote was from Kel LOL

[@mrspaisley1]

Sarrahp1 ohhh haha

[@aj477]

You should try mixing two sodas together and see if you can guess which two were mixed!

[@brendajean623]

Great idea!!

[@frankieboi6020]

A SUPER great idea

[@nathankaye1577]

Stupid idea to be honest. Pointless 🤔

[@clgadd]

I LOVE the Kenan and Kel reference. Does today’s generation know that show?

[@samanthapatmore6079]

I would love to see men try v ladies and lattes that would be such a good video

[@Maddym365]

YES!!

[@Maddym365]

With Holly’s husband or Cam’s wife doing Jess’s job!

[@blakepoirier836]

love for the Kenan and Kell reference. I'm so glad I grew up in the early 90's.

[@shaneducholke364]

Best mix for sprite is pineapple and orange juice called the Jamaican Sunrise, some put a dash of cranberry juice

[@chelseamcdonald2676]

Random thought: There should be an episode that is commenting on your favorite and/or funniest moments throughout the show!

[@sheenatalks8529]

When you're so bougie that you think generic versions of Sprite are 7up and Sierra Mist 😂😆

[@thatonegirl4676]

7 UP is terrible these days.

[@Sarrahp1]

They all taste different to me I like Sierra Mist the best but put that to a blind taste test & you just never know. I'd like to think I could tell the diff 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Hellyeah88833]

I enjoy this format it's a lot like GMM

[@dagmarland]

...but much funnier than GMM.

[@shannonowen2016]

Im so glad you said this haha thats what i was thinking

[@mechelle9009]

I’m really surprised. I think I might start getting generic drinks. Wow. I’m honestly blown away.

[@lamplight1636]

You guys everything seem so fun. Your the funniest. Nobody makes me laugh like you two. I shared your video. Hope you make it to 400k soon!

Dudes do cereal great idea!!!

[@vickieholt7100]

You forgot ginger ale!

[@neverlookback75]

For me it was that Cameron kept licking the bottom of his straw and putting it in the drinks. There is no way that if one of these guys had Covid that they both don't have it now.

[@lesliemcnaughton7111]

Dollar store here has the 3 liters.. They are huge! Cant imagine how people fit them in their fridge lol

[@dechesino601]

Unless you drink a lot of soda, the 3 liter bottles go flat too fast.

[@normajean662]

When they started teasing her for how she said Shasta I almost died lol

[@catmyerin]

Thanks for the laughs first thing in the morning! Try lime or raspberry sherbet in sprite.

[@HalloweenFreak365]

I’d like to see more like this video! Maybe comparing dollar tree to name brand of anything. Foods, drinks, etc...

[@bambietennison255]

If you haven't done this already try sprite, sierra mist, 7-UP! crush, fanta, sunkist! Mug vs. A&W, maybe a blue raspberry challenge for Cam if there is multiple brand with that flavor!! Pepsi vs. generic cola(safeway if you have a safeway)!! love these challenges!!

[@hollyferguson5238]

I agree, orange soda floats are so Yummy!

[@adub_gaming]

I really hope more people get the orange soda, i do I do i do-oooh refrence. Lol

[@pinke112890]

You should definitely try the Shasta “California Dreamin” since you mentioned adding vanilla ice cream to the orange! It’s the best!!

[@vballprincess167]

My sister and I used to put snow cone syrup in Sprite. It was our favorite drink as kids!

[@Sandraudiga333]

Not gonna lie, HyVee has a generic Mtn Dew (Mountain Drive lol) and I like it better than Dew. It's a touch more tart and slightly more carbonated. If you like Mountain Dew, I really recommend it.

[@CherryGryffon]

For the mountain dew round, the reason you guys are liking Mountain Lightning more, IS the carbonation. Without carbonation, soda syrup is too sickly sweet. So since that one is cutting the sugar the most, by way of the most carbonation, it SEEMS the most refreshing and tasty. :D

[@navii7934]

It was mountain lightening and Dr thunder. thats where you got that from =P

[@thestarseeker8196]

I didn’t know that apparently the entire world also knows “who loves orange soda??” I always thought that was a deep cut from that show 😂

[@nolonlindataylor1689]

Jess, you do such a great job serving these two men. If we only knew what goes on behind closed doors. Lol

[@shastaflores331]

I was named after the Shasta sodas 😂...sprite good with coconut rum 🤣

[@classicerynn8452]

You should try name brand colas (Pepsi, Coke, RC); citrus drinks (Mt. dew, Mello Yello, Sun Drop); clear sodas (Mist, Sprite, 7-up); ginger ales (Schweppes, Canada Dry, Seagram's); and, fruit sodas (Crush, Fanta, Welch's) blindly and acknowledge their favorites.

[@stacyjob6279]

Love this . I'd love to see you do this with food there are lots of other versions of cadburys twix ,mars, Reese etc or even with lays verses different brands similar think it would be hard to pick but fun to watch

[@sarahphilibert9269]

Vanilla cherry coke floats are the bomb

[@lisafawcett5384]

Maybe it’s my age and experience, but I know the real thing any day. When I was little they had the Pepsi Challenge twice. Knew Pepsi right out the gate.

[@Troublethegremlin]

Watching you guys make me want to just partake in a video with you guys. Looks so funny and hilarious, plus you guys are hilarious. Just non stop laughs and never know what’s going to happen. The magnetic lashes challenge was by far the funniest video ever. Love seeing all new videos! Love ya guys you’re hilarious 😂

[@shaneducholke364]

Do another tasting comp with original and no name. KD macaroni, peanut butter, ketchup, sugar cereal, pop tarts, Oreos, cheese whiz, vanilla ice cream, bbq sauce, chips and gummy bears. Don't guess what is what, rank the from favorite to worse

[@trevorbocchino5061]

Mountain lightning is Walmart brand not Kroger. They may sell it at Kroger but it’s originally Walmart

[@robertasanders7564]

I wish you did more videos. You make me laugh all the time. Love your videos ❤

Barq's is the best root beer. A&W is always gross

[@Duelist037]

I came to the comments looking for this.

[@emilymartin7864]

Glass bottle old fashioned is the best Northwest brands that are hard to get because its not a chain and local

[@rebeccakincade6034]

I love Barq’s so much!!

[@rebeccameldrum8185]

My go to soda! Love the flavor plus it's got caffeine!

[@joshualee-gs9yv]

a&w has alot of vanilla hints.... barqs n fitz n what not is more closer to sasparilla then anything... im not a fan of a&w cream soda... i much perfer vess cream soda or big red personally

[@jennyfayeuk7342]

I'd love for you to do the one bite challenge what ladies and lattes just did, would be funny as 😊😊. X

[@sassafrassking]

Mug Rootbeer and Orange Crush are really good too!

[@brieromie7975]

I don't like soda...but for some reason this video makes me want it. Also I like you guys more than GMM. (I like them also) but i feel you guys are more honest and genuine.. And i love your vlog channels also. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

[@ambernicole7301]

The look austin gave cam after " you actually paid for those glasses?" I spit out my gum I laughed so hard.

[@TheeVixey]

What about a blindfolded taste test on chocolates, you could use the mini ones & I was thinking with Halloween coming up it'd be super easy to get a nice selection of a bunch... You'd have to put them on a spoon or something so all you could use is your taste buds to guess which bar is what.

[@angelabishop2004]

[@itsalexney]

Mountain lightening, twist up, and orangette are all sold at Walmart.

[@InvisibleAvenger]

The Mountain Dew round should have included Mountain Dew Real Sugar in the mix. Grapette and Orangette aren't really generics, the Grapette pop was developed by Benjamin Fooks and first sold in 1940. Fooks sold a line of flavorings called Fooks Flavors and saw that his grape flavor was popular, and because he was unsatisfied with the grape pops on the market he developed a grape pop that tasted the way he thought grape pop should taste. Other flavors like Fooks' Orangette quickly followed in the 40s. Fooks sold his company, called Flavette, in 1970 andGrapette and the other pops were actively produced until the mid-70s in the US when a series of buyouts resulted in the Flavette brands being bought by the Monarch Beverage Company who promptly shut Flavette down because Monarch already had NuGrape. The international side of Flavette became its own business in 1962. Grapette has actually been Wal=Mart's grape flavor since the mid-80s, it just that the company didn't have the Flavette brand trademarks until Monarch finally sold them in the early 2000s. Sunkist Orange pop has only been around since 1979.

[@rileyshae7896]

@mentryvideos you NEED to try sprite/7up with rainbow sorbet! If you have I hope you love it as much as I do. I use it at parties ALL the time 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 you guys should do a popsicle taste test next summer or even before summer ends

[@spurmarks]

Have you done a peanut butter comparison? Jif, Skippy vs generics.

[@macaelatice-loma1048]

peter pan my name brand knock offs it varies...

[@LesA.R.6568]

Mountain Lighting, and Dr. Thunder.

[@CassR25]

I know you guys were both talking about different floats. One talking about rootbeer floats and the other about orange soda ones. I actually combined that awhile back and it has become my favorite. Still use rootbeer but get orange ice cream instead of vanilla. It tastes sooo good!! Thanks for doing what you guys do! Always so entertaining and fun to watch your videos!

[@NoNames-vw3bq]

Oh you needed extra ones in the orange sodas to compare Fanta & Crush too. Need to do a guess comparison with caffeine free versions.

[@shelbyosborne6763]

Ocean waters from Sonic 😍 it’s coconut and sprite with blue coloring

[@Totallynotfroze]

Me casually drinking Shasta mountain rush.

[@megenthajenkins1357]

[@LennaBaby81]

My opinion with the root beers... Walmart version is more Mug then A&W. As for Walmart cola has more of a cinnamon aftertaste to me and I drink Coke mostly

[@samanthasnyder5916]

You should try lime sherbert and sprite. So good

[@PokeSharkYT]

usually the difference between name brand and generic is generic uses cheaper ingredients like more high fructose corn syrup

[@JenniferSmith-fo2zy]

You guys are seriously hilarious I’ve had a rough time recently and really needed to smile today thank you very much subscribed

[@tiffanidean1609]

You guys should do a name brand VS generic food (like cheetos VS store brand) love watching you guys!!

[@rileyshae7896]

I don’t know if it’s just me, but when they said mountain lightning has to be Mountain Dew because it has the most carbonation, that’s what would’ve made me think it definitely not Mountain Dew because I always add Sprite to any of my Mountain Dew to add more carbonation whether it’s a fountain drink or a can or a liter bottle I’m always adding a little bit of sprite to my Mountain Dew.

[@Sas_HeatherC]

Its absolutely hilarious how later in the video (at cola) how they are obviously sugar caffine rushing LOLOLOL

Orange Crush and Grape Nehi a blast from the past that was so good , and I love to use Sprite or &-up if I make jello sub the pop for the cold water part.

Sprite with sherbet for a float..... AMAZING!

[@eddragereon654]

I'm weird and can tell the difference of sodas. Orange sodas, I drank fanta, orange soda and sunkist. Sunkist is what I drink now. It's weird to explain but I can tell the difference.

i'm a huge Big K fan. I prefer it to any name brand. I don't like the great value ones at all. Shasta is ok, but definitely not as good as it used to be

Hey.. Put Ginger Ale instead of Sprite for the mixed drinks. Sunkist Orange has caffeine in it also along with Coke.
