😛 this was before the soda explosion. I think Tab was the only diet drink at the time 😦

Actually, quinine water has quite a few calories, 120 vs 155 for Coke for 12 oz.

They must use a lot of sugar to try to kill at least some of the quinine taste. 😖

Don't forget the Nahants, or the Newburys, or the Andovers, or the Dorchesters, or the Readings...
