14. Fresca is on the shelves again |
|
and tastes much better than the first time around. I remember it was hideous when it first came out in the late 60s.

I can drink them now, though. They aren't as nasty.

I used to take them all the time. And down them with TAB, the soda. It's a wonder I'm still around.

4. did it taste better with cyclamates? |
|
They took cyclamates off the market when I was quite young. Saccharin was not a good substitute.

9. I don't know about cyclamates, but I loved that little saccharine kick |
|
it used to have. I wrote to complain when they switched to NutraSweet - that just made it taste like Diet Coke.

6. For a long time I was convinced my mom single handedly |
|
kept TAB on supermarket shelfs. We called her a Tabaholic.
She's finally down to 2 or 3 a day. Used to be 10-15.

13. Tabb High School in Tabb, Va. (on the peninsula) |
|
Chris Slade and Terry Kirby (national HS player of the year) went there. Our archrivals. We were the first class in 4 years to beat them, sadly we played them twice a year and on the same field (we just switched sides according to who was the "home" team) the field was just on our school grounds. They had to take a bus to home games.
A couple of years after I graduated my alma mater was totally outsized and slower and had just lost to them the week before, and they beat them in the state tournament. TK's last game.

15. TAB makes me think of my aunt |
|
my mom's youngest sister. She drank TAB all the time. She passed away from cancer in 99. I still miss her very much.

Yes, I know that's an urban legend, but it's still funny and not far from true.

19. It had the most disgusting taste...! |
|
Sorry to sound negative, but that's my opinion. Tab tasted horrible to me!
And yes, they still make it. I see Tab in the grocery stores to this very day--and avoid it. :-)

23. I saw it a few months ago... |
|
...and was surprised that it is still in production. Can't recall at the moment where I saw it. Maybe it will come back to me.

On the shelves all the time in Vermont. As a diabetic before diet coke came out, it's the only soda I could drink. I pretty much stuck with water.
