    TIL Belgians have Fritz Cola. It can be hard to tell how widespread a brand is when you’re from its home market … I wonder if the new German chancellor is going to affect Fritz Cola’s popularity (“Fritz” is short for “Friedrich”).

        We also have Dr Foots in the Netherlands, which is more like Dr Pepper / Cherry Coke than regular Cola but it’s good and made here (by the company behind Bavaria and loads of other beers. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Swinkels). Lot of their money is earned by producing for supermarkets, so all those unbranded cheap versions are also not American. 🇳🇱 🇪🇺

      I will not allow the name of Fritz Kola be ruined by Fotzen Fritze! My hamburgian pride forbids it!
