Things that don't seem right

Root beer!  That stuff definitely isn't right at all.

I had my first taste yesterday.....to me, it is an unholy blend of Germoline and Listerine flavour.

Shudder.  Never again.

I've never tried Root Beer, and after reading your description of it, I think it's unlikely that I ever will. However, should I happen to graze my knee, perhaps it could prove to be a useful addition to my first aid kit.  

No Sparkly, I urge anyone who remembers Germoline to get a can of Root beet for the experience.  It was a really incredible smell and taste experience for me - very nostalgic and extremely weird.   Never again, but I was pleased to have the "incredible" experience.  I'd be interested to know if people have the same experience as me.

Lol.  I also love the smell of germoline.  Maybe that's because it reminds me of root beer!

....walking around after my mum had patched up a badly grazed knee with a generous splattering of Germoline = me too !!

I'm going to upset you all by saying I love root beer.  But then I spent some of my formative years in the USA and devoured plenty of root beer flavour ice lollies which we called Popsicles.  I have no idea how to explain the flavour of it except that it reminds me of summer days in the garden.

Conversely, we had a lot of fun making our American friends taste marmite and watching their expressions of disgust. 

I think often it's just a case of what flavours you're used to.
