Soft drinks are a real revolution and the history of soft drinks spans several centuries. In 1767, when Joseph Priestly discovered a way to infuse water with bubbles of carbon dioxide, the world's happiness began. Can you imagine that even such a common drink had its beginning that brought distrust?
Initially marketed in pharmacies due to the belief of its medicinal properties, soda took a big leap with the creation of root beer in 1876. Shortly thereafter, in 1885, Dr. Pepper made its entry into the market, followed by the iconic Coca-Cola in 1886. Years passed, competition increased and creations went beyond the limits of creativity.

The worst soft drinks in the world
buffalo wing soda
The aforementioned carbonated drink, made with 100% cane sugar, received an unfavorable rating of 2.7 out of 10 for overall taste by HuffPost. Additionally, it scored an even lower score of 2.3 out of 10 regarding its resemblance to buffalo wings.
One of the tasters of the drink commented on his surprise to find that the drink tasted like buffalo wings and mentioned that it had a spicy sharpness to the nose. That is, it was evaluated for having the real taste - and bad!
bacon soda
The bacon soda, introduced by Jones Soda Co., drew mixed reactions to its bold flavor. However, most people seem to find the drink unappetizing at best. According to the New York Daily News, when the drink was released, New Yorkers described it as "disgusting". This negative opinion highlights the lack of appeal that the unusual bacon flavor had with the public.
grass soda
According to Soda Pop Craft, which reviewed the near-fluorescent green drink, the flavor doesn't quite resemble grass, despite the name. Instead, it was described as overly sweet and syrupy. Although the smell may be reminiscent of grass, the taste does not reflect this aroma.
butter soda
Rocket Fizz Butter Soda is known for its association with butter, but it doesn't actually contain real butter, down to the fact that water and oil don't mix. Although it received a rating of 3.7 out of 5 stars, indicating a satisfactory average, it is worth noting that not all buyers were impressed with the taste of the drink.
As mentioned in a specific review, one buyer described the taste as similar to popcorn with sugar but in liquid form, expressing a negative opinion of the product.
