Turkey & Gravy Flavored Soda For Thanksgiving Anyone?

<snip>

SEATTLE (Reuters) - Seconds, anyone?

After the startling success of its turkey and gravy-flavored soda during last year's U.S. holiday season, a Seattle soda company will be serving up green beans and casserole, mashed potatoes, fruitcake and cranberry flavors.

"Last year, the response to our Turkey and Gravy Soda was overwhelming, but we really didn't have side dishes to go with it," Peter van Stolk, chief executive of specialty soda maker Jones Soda Co., said on Monday.

The tan-colored turkey and gravy-flavored soda sold out last year in three hours after it was offered on the Web and later fetched prices over $100 on eBay Inc.

This year, Jones Soda is offering the turkey and gravy sodas as a set in 15,000 "holiday packs" for $16 each, complete with utensils.

2. Jones Vanilla Cola is wonderful stuff.

Turkey and gravy I don't know about, but it sounds just bizarre enough that I may have to try it.

6. Sorry, but it does not sound inviting

I don't really drink very much soda, but I think I'll stick to diet cola flavor when I do.
