Re: bottom line for me...
Jesus, why would you drink soda when you are in France?
Because I like Coke. What, I'm not entitled to enjoy the things I like simply because something different is avaliable?
I studied in Paris for a month, and it was an amazing time of gastronomic and oenologic discovery. I remember every morning, on the walk to classes, stopping by the patisserie for a fresh pear tart for breakfast. Like it was yesterday I can remember the taste and texture of the finest baking in the world.
But, sometimes I had a cheeseburger, Coke, and fries, because I like those things too. I'm no food heathen; I'm a foodie from a long line of Italian foodies. But still, I consider the bacon cheeseburger to be the finest achivement ever created in any of the world's kitchens.
So, that's why I would drink soda in France. Because I like soda, and as you say, food is about pleasing the senses, and my senses are pleased by the tingle of heavy carbonation and the bite of high-fructose corn syrup.

No, it doesn't. The 'i' is pronounced 'ee', but shorter.
It tastes like vagina though.

Ah, America, where they sprinkle some coke over your bucket of ice.

    I can't mention 'vagina'? Why not? You just said 'member'.
    Besides, who of our younger m*mbers are going to read a topic titled "Political Identity Crisis"?

    Parasomnium, you didn't just mention "vagina." You said something tasted like vagina.
    I think you may be drunk.

    If I were drunk, I'd not be sitting at my computer. I have been drunk three times in my life, now is not one of them.

    Oh, okay. Whatever you say. But one does not normally discuss the "taste of vagina" on evcforum. And at any rate, I disagree with your taste analysis. Your tastebuds are skewed.
