    Coke and Fanta are together because Coke owns Fanta.

    It's just always funny to me when people get pissed off that they can't get Sprite at a place that sells Pepsi products.

    Here in brazil, as the production of sodas is localized in each state/region, you may find here some kind of sodas but in other states no, and vice versa, some are "imported" from other states. one example is the passion fruit fanta, it even being sold here in Pernambuco, the can have a writing that says it were produced in Alagoas or Rio Grande do norte and because of that is much hard find it here.

    Hey, uh... I just want to have a little chat about Fanta, it might be off random and a little offensive but I'm going to say it anyway.

    Nathalie, I know there's a lot of confusion about Fanta origin right? For me it just funny because I read this article by saying "Fanta was created in the World War 2 Germany's government not by the Germany government"

    I believe the argument all is kinda nuts and are just out of proportion. Well it's kinda like a blind man with an elephant.

    It's a fact that Fanta is originally from Germany yes, somewhere in the 1940's, but I don't really know what year.

    1941, under the rule of Nazi Germany, the confusion started where some people think that The government endorsing or planning Fanta during the World War but it is incorrect, it just produce in Germany during that time.

    And I tried all Malaysian Flavor these past week, I have to say I only hooked on Grape flavor. Didn't like the rest.

    Hmm, Maybe I should try imported version from Europe or North America.

    Grape is one of my least flavours actually. It's kind of heavy on my stomach.

    Actually, Fanta was made, because Germany couldn't get the supplies anymore from the US during the war, so they made their own thing, with ingredients they could use from Germany itself.

    Since that photo, I think about 5 new flavours have been added, lolz.
    Specially brought 2 back from the US, and find 3 new ones in France last week.

    Oh, I would love to see an update Fanta picture.

    Yeap, you got it right, the confusion about government connection with Fanta sure is hilarious

    You don't like Grapes? weird, For me that's the only taste that kicked in for me. I might try different international flavor and judge by that.

    I don't have a new picture.
    Bottles are everywhere right now :/

    I got the Orange & Pineapple from America.
    And I got a grapefruit one which I drank over there, as they didn't have that one in small bottles.

    And from France I got something with Peach, and 2 new limited editions, one is with strawberry and something else, and can't remember the other one.

    I didn't realize until I was at Burger King last week (long story), but their Coke Freestyle machines have like eight flavors of Fanta each. Cherry, lime, raspberry, orange, grape, fruit punch, peach, and strawberry I think.

    Yeah, I am generally aware that Burger King and few Fast Food chains have Fanta on their fountain.

    Wonder if I go to Indonesia or Europe countries and could taste all the different flavor of Fanta.
