    Just the other day, I tried to order a root beer at a taco bell and the guy said they didn’t have it, did I want a dr pepper instead. I was speechless for a second because it was so baffling that he thought that was the closest replacement.

    Then he listed the other options and I got a Baja blast, not because it’s the closest thing to root beer but because hearing that one reminded me that I don’t really care that they don’t carry root beer.

    Though still, wtf @ them not carrying root beer.

      And Taco Bell sells pepsi so if they did have root beer, you’d have gotten Mug which is better than Barqs. Jersey Mikes is great because they sell Stubborn root beer (a Pepsi “craft” brand) which is pretty good for a crafty pop.
