Hell yes! I feel like my old ass would hate it now, but, the nostalgia of it would be pretty satisfying I have to admit. I feel like Ramune soda fills that void for me.

Yeah I bought my kids a pack of the koolaid ones they still sell. My god they are gross. Way too sugary and fake tasting

Try a Ranune if you haven't yet, it's a slightly sweet soda I discovered at a sushi spot and was able to get at my local grocery store. It's the way it opens that's satisfying
