Happy holidays from Jones Soda


At Target yesterday, I spied the Jones Soda Holiday Pack. Having read about last year's offerings, I was curious to see this year's flavors.

Turkey and Gravy, Wild Herb Stuffing, Brussels Sprout, Cranberry and Pumpkin Pie.

Ah, but that's only what's in the National Pack. Those crazy folks at Jones also have unleashed a Regional Pack, in which you'll find Broccoli Casserole, Smoked Salmon Paté, Turkey & Gravy, Corn on the Cob and Pecan Pie. The Regional Pack is available in select areas, so check the Jones Soda Web site to see where you can find it.

And if you think I'm going to buy them and tell you what they taste like, then you are out of luck. I have my limits.

Fortunately, Matt at X-Entertainment.com has done all the hard work. Check it out.

And on a happier note, the holiday packs are fund-raisers for St. Jude’s Children’s Research Center and Toys for Tots. Jones Soda might have concocted the soda fountain from hell, but their hearts are in the right place.

And, if you really like me, you can get this:

They are available beginning Nov. 15, so that gives you all plenty of time to search the couch cushions for change or recycle those aluminum cans.
