Six of those must be American/North American drinks as I have never even heard of them.

I'm not sure we have Gatorade in the UK, we probably do, but it at least has a bit of international name recognition. Snapple, Arizona, Sierra mist, Crush and Barqs on the other hand......

snapple=flavored tea, arizona=tea, sierra mist=lemon lime, crush=orange, barqs=root beer. Most had their heydays a couple of decades ago.

Gatorade has way more than "a little bit of international recognition", as it has become the main sports drink all over the world (and making really good promos, like this one, helps too).

Perhaps proximity rules here, but here in Mexico, both Crush and Arizona are available. For a time, Crush was the main orange soda, not Fanta. I think Snapple has also crossed the border (without its "real facts", though).

I'm not, I've heard of gatorade before but I didn't know the logo and have never seen one before here in the UK, never seen an advert for it online the only time it comes up is very rarely when watching a American TV show or YouTuber and I can't remember the last time I heard about it, long ago.

It's not really possible to make an international version of this quiz. But if I changed the title to "U.S. Soft Drink Brand Logos" then people would complain because Schweppes and Red Bull aren't American. And I wanted to use those logos. So here we are. If someone wanted to make a British soft drink logo quiz I could help them.

I agree when it comes to Sierra Mist, Crush and Barq's. Never heard of them. Gatorade I knew by name so the G in the logo helped. I'm surprised you don't know Arizona or Snapple. We have them here in Germany. According to Wikipedia Arizona sells 14 flavours in the UK.

Sierra Mist is a bootleg Sprite, and it isn't that common even in the U.S. because it's terrible, but Pepsi makes it, so you can find it at fountain soda machines at places where they have Pepsi products instead of Coke.

I've just done a quick bit of online research and yes it seems that you are able to buy Arizona in the UK but only via online retailers which would explain why it is virtually unknown here. If it's not on the shelves of shops then it's not going to be well known

Almost all of these are popular and sold worldwide. I mean Pepsi and Coke are probably the two most recognized drink brands in the world and probably the most consumed beverages in the world possibly after water. Of those you mentioned, Gatorade definitely is all over the place, but Snapple and Arizona are also pretty common in international markets. The others not so much.

Schweppes and Fanta I have seen a lot more of overseas certain places than I ever saw back in the US.

Level 72
Nov 25, 2019
Almost all of these are popular and sold worldwide, Really?! The stats suggest otherwise, there is quite a distinct drop off. The bottom 6 I have never even heard of (and through pop culture heard about quite a lot of other products we dont have here).

And even if some brands would not be exclusively sold in the us, but a handfull of countries elsewhere, that is a long way from worldwide sales (something being sold on the opposite side of the world does not equate to worldwide, eventhough it is spread out wide then)

mountain dew is one you hear about through popculture and dr pepper (though we do have the latter here not, sure that is the case for every country)

Level 72
Nov 25, 2019
Btw sunkist rings a bell, I think I might have seen it in the Uk, when on holiday, I guess that would explain it is less low than the bottom 4. (Perhaps arizona is available there aswell? Or in australia)

Really. Your personal experience doesn't constitute the experience of the entire world. I know this is a really hard concept to grasp for some people. And, yes, something being sold in many different countries all around the world DOES equate to worldwide. (definition: spread out over many different points around the world) If, for example, there were McDonald's franchises in 49 out of 50 states but there wasn't a McDonald's in Wyoming (there is, this is a hypothetical), it would not be inaccurate to say that McDonald's was popular nationwide. And if someone did say that, and a resident of Wyoming piped in saying "hey! I never saw one where I'm from. Clearly they're not popular nationwide!"... the Wyoming resident would be daft. There are only 2 countries in the world where Coca-Cola is not sold: North Korea and Cuba. If based on this you said it's not sold worldwide, you'd probably agree that would be stupid. So where's the arbitrary cutoff? Not sold in 5 countries? Not sold in 50?
+3
Level 81
Nov 25, 2019
Or just not sold at your corner grocery? That's the real answer, right?

Also, I don't see the sharp drop-off you are referencing. There is a gently sloping curve downward starting with the 2nd most-guessed answer. The ones at the bottom are indeed the ones with the least global market penetration, but the top 12 answers are all known by more than half of test takers, and I've seen them all (and Snapple, ironically, the 2nd-least-guessed answer) sold around the world. That's close to all on a 16-answer quiz.

+10
Level 58
Nov 26, 2019
I don't agree with your Wyoming example. Given that the UK is the 5th largest economy in the world you would have thought there was a very good chance that a product claimed to be sold 'worldwide' would be sold there. That's like McDonalds not having branches in Connecticut. It would be madness given the potential size of the market. So I don't think it is fair to call someone daft for debating whether a product is 'worldwide' if it is not widely available in the UK. Just sayin

Your personal experience doesn't constitute the experience of the entire world. I know this is a really hard concept to grasp for some people Exactly my point, you should listen to your own advice sometimes.

Just because you've seen something outside of the usa does not mean it's everywhere. And your examples are rather crazy and over the top. And I don't see why you are using Coca cola as an an example noone said that that wasn't a worldwide thing. You are claiming that if something is sold in the US and in Cuba, or lets pick a place further away, Brunei it is a worldwide phenomenon. Sorry man 2 countries definitely does not equate to worldwide. Many, yes and that was exactly what I was saying. Saying 49 states is not nationwide is indeed daft, just as daft as saying in 2 states is everywhere in the US..

as for your 2nd reply saying indeed the bottom 4 are less known globally, so why the whole reply in the first place.

And seriously not need for the downputting.

Everything I said is accurate. Read it again slowly if you want. I'm not the guy who lives in Virginia, once took a Caribbean cruise, and took a vacation to Europe where I visited France and England, and makes inaccurate assumptions based on his myopic view of the world. I'm the guy who has lived all over the world and traveled non-stop for most of my adult life, and looks up things before he comments. Maybe you got us confused.

Don, do you remember Lotta Cola? We liked them because they had 16 oz. bottles when Coke was still being sold in the really small bottles. I drank a lot of "sody" when I was a kid - my mom thought it was healthier than Kool-aid to serve with her version of "fast food" - baloney on white bread sandwiches with plenty of Miracle Whip added. We drank Pepsi too, but those were best drunk in the hayfield on a hot day with a package of peanuts poured into them. I suspect it tasted so good because we were craving salt. Then Mom's Extension Club did a lesson on healthy food for children and our diets changed - she exchanged the bologna for scrambled eggs on our sandwiches to take to work in the field. If two-liter bottles had been available back then I shudder to think how much soda we'd have all been drinking.

Level 85
Nov 18, 2022
Actually, this is the first I've ever heard of Lotta Cola. I grew up in NJ, so maybe that was a Midwest brand? Enjoyed your reminiscing. I remember, as a 7-year-old, having a bologna sandwich w/mayo made for me by my friends' mom, and I thought it was the greatest thing. Having bottles of Coke was a treat. We probably mostly made iced tea, especially in summer. Just the powdered stuff. Our biggest dietary faux pas was probably the sugary cereals we at almost every day. "Honeycomb" was my favorite.

Nearly true: "During the Second World War, a trade embargo was established against Nazi Germany—making the import of Coca-Cola syrup difficult. To circumvent this, Max Keith, the head of Coca-Cola Deutschland (Coca-Cola GmbH), decided to create a new product for the German market, using only ingredients available in Germany at the time [...] - the "leftovers of leftovers", as Keith later recalled [...].

The plant was cut off from Coca-Cola headquarters during the war. After the war, The Coca-Cola Company regained control of the plant, formula, and the trademarks to the new Fanta product—as well as the plant profits made during the war." (Wikipedia)

I'm sure you could probably find all of these in Australia if you were really determined, but I am confident in saying that Snapple, Crush, Arizona, Orangina and Canada Dry have virtually no widespread recognition. Sunkist is around, but not popular. Coke is ubiquitous, Pepsi, Sprite, and Fanta are also pretty much everywhere. The others I haven't mentioned would all be recognisable to most Australians. I always find it interesting how some brands that make it big in the US are also household names here, whilst others which are massive in the US are totally unknown.
