I’m drinking a fountain Baja Blast right now with my drive-thru Taco Bell Crunchwrap Supreme and Mexican Pizza. Thanks, Emma.

Seriously. Thank you, it’s delicious.

I really love reading your thoughts on soda. Is there a way to make a one time donation to help support the cause? It would be my way of buying you a few Olipops...

this is so sweet of you to ask! (and thank you for the kind words!) I think I'm going to keep it free of any monetary option for now (it's been so fun to have something like this as just a pure passion project) but I'll definitely let people know if that ever changes <3 cheers!

You've discussed this before regarding soft drinks that just don't "hit" right from the bottle, but the Baja Blast in particular loses something. Even pouring it into a different glass to avoid the plastic taste that comes from drinking straight from the bottle doesn't help.

yes! I really think the fact that we're all used to Baja Blast as a fountain-only drink plays a role here

I remember a time without the blast. It was just tacos back then. The dark times, as it was called.

Time to commit to full-time soda writing!

Seeing the phrase "home soda" had my eyes welling on the verge of tears. Some are, others aren't. It's an unfortunate truth I never took the time to sit with, but if I brought a 12 pack of Baja Blast to my mother's house I wouldn't be invited back.
