"What are you talking about Klutch?"
"Bring us to salvation!!!"
"How can I live my life through better carbonation and a hint of grapefruit?"
Mmmmm . . . Fresca . . .
I did not post on Friday, due to the fact that "they" added Fresca to the office soda machine. I was much too busy trying to count my change with my shaking fingers and running back and forth to the kitchen replenishing my glass of un-cola. What is it about this magical beverage?
Phenylalanine
It is all around you and it is inside your FRESCA!
I'm sure the above link is a great site and provides more than adequate information, but I have no attention span. I need answers and I need them now. What is it that keeps me addicted to additives? Thanks to a Development Associate at a major non-profit cultural organization we know just a little bit more about our favorite neutral, genetically coded amino acid.
Klutch: Hey, what's up?
Development Associate (DA): Hey. I think I'm gonna go home. My stomach.
Klutch: What's up with Phenylalanine?
DA: What?
Klutch: What's up with Phenylalanine?
DA: I don't know. Can we do this tomorrow?
Klutch: No. Do you know anything about it?
DA: No
Klutch: It's in Fresca!
DA: Oh yeah. That's right.
Klutch: Do you think it was the Fresca that made you ill?
DA: I didn't have any today.
Klutch: Did you have anything with Phenylalanine in it?
DA: Alright. I really have to go. I don't feel well at all.
So. There you have it. Fresca laced with phenylalanine causes short term memory loss and upset stomach. But damn, if it isn't refreshing.
