Did you know this about orange soda?

It has as much caffeine (41mg) as Coke?  I was surprised to find that out.  I always thought it was caffeine free.

That's my contribution to the beverage discussions. Stick out tongue

ETA:  I am talking about Sunkist Orange soda specifically, but I would guess they're all the same.

Re: Did you know this about orange soda?

  • I THINK only SOME orange soda does- like...sunkist, but not crush? and not fanta.

    but I may be wrong- Im pretty sure though.

    Barqs rootbeer, I think is also caffeinated.

  • crush is caffeine free.

    A&W, MUG, and IBC are caffeine free for root beers, I think.  I try to check when I buy since I usually buy whichever root beer is on sale.

  • I know for sure the MUG and A&W is caffeine free. I can't help with orange soda cause we don't like that one.
  • of course Barq's is caffeinated- it's the one with "BITE!" everyone knows that bite=caffeine.

    when we were kids my dad came home with a Barq's t-shirt for everyone in the family, i guess they were cross promotional shirts from the car dealership he worked for. we were the family with BITE.

  • It is definitely not all orange soda. Sunkist is the only brand I've seen that has does have caffeine, actually.
  • Yeah, the orange crush in my fridge is caffeine free.

    I thought Sunkist=Orange Crush and didn't know they were different.  I don't care for it, so I never buy it.  In my mind though, it has always been a kids' soda, so I was surprised to see that some have caffeine.  I never would have thought to look at the label for caffeine in that particular type of soda.

  • I was an orange soda drinker pre-kids. I actually switched from sunkist to fanta when pg with ds1. It was a major deal for me, they taste different. I've given it up now since I don't want my kids drinking soda.
