Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

I honestly didn't get Oreo vibes from it (I was drinking it room temp, not sure if that matters). But as someone else pointed out, it's reminiscent of vanilla coke that I don't like, so probably not a good tester.

Maybe there's some ingredient that only some people can taste thats in vanilla and oreo coke that's overwhelming any other flavours.

I think it's in my head. I was introduced to spiced rum recently. Drinking a couple with coke, yum yum, then my wife mentioned "it's a bit like vanilla coke". Suddenly I realise she's right, and now I don't like it anymore 😅. All in my head.
