Canada Lie

Post by DoomYoshi »

So Canada Dry Ginger Ale is:
a) not Canadian
b) quite wet
c) not made with ginger
d) not an ale

However, the recent lawsuit is only addressing one of the 3 points. I think we should start other lawsuits to address the other points.

Dry implies "not sweet" in the beverage world, but this also happens to be untrue of 'Canada Dry' so I support your lawsuit!

Since a can has the same amount of sugar as three Snickers bars, I'm not sure it meets that qualification either.

Dear Jerry

While the “Ask Jerry” columnist is American, the“Canada Dry soft drink is Canadian. What makes it “Dry” is its lack of sweetness (not its lack of wetness). For your reference, the answers are subject to interpretation and have varied over time.

Initially, Canada Dry ginger ale, the best-known of its soft drinks, mixers and other products, was produced in the country that shares its name. In 1890, a chemist and pharmacist named John McLaughlin founded a soda water bottling plant in your city of Toronto. In 1904, he created diverse flavor extracts to enhance the water. The same year, he identified the carbonated “Pale Dry Ginger Ale.” In 1907, the beverage received a patent known as “Canada Dry Ginger Ale.”

More recently, Canada Dry was purchased by the Texas-located Dr. Pepper Snapple Group. You can decide for yourself whether that makes “Canada Dry Ginger Ale” an American beverage or a Canadian beverage. In any case, the name has certainly enjoyed a global century-plus history

for those who are interested in whether ginger ale really contains ginger, the answer is “yes.” In Canada, the U.S. and worldwide, there is some form of ginger in virtually all brands of ginger ale. However, for those who wish to know the amount of “real ginger” in ginger ale, best of luck. That information will probably remain vague. The manufacturers of Canada Dry and other ginger ales continue to call it “propriety information.”

can you stop doing that armati?

everybody knows how to use google. put the info you copy-pasted in quote tags, comment something on the info you copy pasted too.

i know you're probably 75, but you learned how to use this forum, you could learn to use the quote tags.

this is an example:

Code: Select all

For one thing it's plagiarism. For another I already pointed out that Canada Dry is one of the sweetest beverages in the history of humanity.

Sounds to me you have a personal issue goin on.

For anyone to believe that is "plagiarism" well...they didnt really read it did they?
I mean, you were bright enough to know I didnt write it wernt you?

Thinking about plagiarism, whats it called when our msm news uses the same stories word for word?

Alternatively, Canadian Whisky can ONLY be made in Canada. There are a bunch of "local" canadians here (top shelf) that make it sound like they are from local distilleries, but they are all imported. https://pendletonwhisky.com/ is HUGELY popular and honors a local rodeo that has become completely blown out of proportion :lol: It's some kinda law....thank the gods.....I am a DEVOUT canadian whisky lover and would hate to see the horrendous jim beams of the world ruin a good thing by trying to 'mericah the f*ck out of it.....lol.

THANK YOU CANADA!!!

This has been my go-to for 40 years....as Skynyrd so eloquently put it, I drank enough whisky to float a battleship around :D

Is this a popular whisky in Canada or just here?

I can't even remember when's the last time I saw it here. Might be more popular out west, though.

If the one called, GoranZ were here he would save of us from the inane triviality of preference by use of pandemic cartooning. Can I get an, "awwkwwaarrddd" girls!?

A clever defense mechanism against other noticible flaws in the absence of consistent delineation that can be the collective human thought process. Hence why I've come to work with you all to hopefully create solutions to these modern atrocities. Come together, friends, enemies, lend me your minds. For I come in peace.


My proposal, cut off anyone's hands that sell sugar to greatly reduce the chances of them returning to this injustice. This includes alcohol but one thing at a time, first the RDIF chips then the compliance... Extreme I know but it's a necessary evil to gain respect through fear. Also crushing their feet with a cinder block is an effective method of correction.

From there we turn current sugar plantations into human rehabilitation centers for the terminally ill, addiction counseling centers for those still stuck under it's mind control, family suitable housing and finally career oppurtunity in cleaning up current coastline epidemics worldwide. Double finally killing anyone who stands in your way with a Canada Lie can.

Sound too good to be true? Canada Lie can straight to your dome!


Seven of those points I was being serious. I'm open for engagement on the subject further and not to allude anyone that is not a physical invitation. I have manners about myself. Please no more private messages concerning my rockin' bod and if you're trying to entice me do so in a less primitive manner.

Then you should be pleased to know that I one day aspire to have a daughter of my very own. Family is very important would you not agree the one called, Dukasaur?

Just want to clarify these words.

Gimli: Not a a dwarf. A cool small resort town on a lake.

Man: Not a gender or designation for human. Rather the short form of a province.

Crown and Canada Dry Ginger Ale: One Canadian, one not, but together, super yummy. And will f*ck you up.

Glad to serve.

I was kinda surprised to find out that London Dry Gin isn't from London. Turns out that London Dry is a method of making gin.
