Quoting Runway23 (Thread starter): Ice Tea in the US has a lot more sugar than in Europe.
Proper iced tea should have no sugar in it at all, unless it's "sweet tea" in the South. Or are you refering to the canned variety?

Mountain Dew in Germany and Spain is not as sweet as it is in the USA. I prefer the taste of Mountain Dew from the USA.
Beck's and Bitburger beer taste completely different in other countries than in Germany. Even the Beck's you get on Shithansa flights taste different than the original Beck's from Germany.

Coke and Diet Coke (Coke Light) tasted better in Cancun than in NYC - It's similar to the Coke you get in Europe and Asia. I guess US drinks tend to be sweeter?

Mexican Coke still has real sugar in it, not corn syrup. (That was the story a few years ago, and I believe it's still the case.)

The stuff they sell as Orangina here in Germany tastes like water and doesn't contain as much pulp as the original. If I want some good Orangina I have to go all the way to France.

Still is, as many stores (C-stores, grocery stores, bakeries, etc.) that are predominantly Mexican areas sell imported Coke and Pepsi products (and other soft drink brands from Mexican and Latin America).

Quoting Aerorobnz (Reply 13): Guinness in New Zealand is rubbish too.
Hmm considering that New Zealand made Guinness was voted by judges from Guinness I believe it was to be the best Guinness in the world outside of Guinness made in Ireland....
but...
Quoting Aerorobnz (Reply 13): Though that's partly cos noone here bloody knows how to pour it correctly.
is quite true...
not that it matters Guiness tastes like shit! (sorry to my Irish friends out there).
Hey Rob, how are things going at NZ anyways mate? You gonna hang around?

How about the water. It tastes different from town to town. I think many of the products mentioned taste different because of the different water used at the local plant where they are bottled/canned. I remember reading years ago that when Coors was planning on opening their first brewery outside Colorado, one of their primary considerations was finding water that tasted the same as at their original location. I think they settled on Virginia, but I can't be sure.
The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers.

Dr Pepper in Australia taste like shit compared to USA.
