Grape Soda...Why is it stereotyped as a "Black" drink???

[i love nikes]

 

[fear the mongolian chop]

I LOVE grape soda! Put a little bit of lime juice in it and it's GAME OVER!!! I will take grape soda over any other flavored soda.

I'm Asian if it matters.

But to actually answer your question, it's probably due to the stereotype/ assumption that most blacks are middle/ low class and choose the generic sodas/ add-water drinks in oppose to the name brand beverages eg coke, pepsi as a method of budgeting.

because grape soda are usually the cheapest drink at the grocery store and you know the whole thing people assume with black people and food stamps andwhatnot

Black People have for years endorsed the Purple way of life, Soda, Juice, Kool-Aid, Pop-Cicles, Crown Royale, Jordans, etc.

Don't let white people take that away from you like with White Grape Juice...

Grape soda and juices, you know what, grape flavor period

 

[sharpiepoint]

grape drink is terrible, tastes like cough medicine. what about blacks smoking menthols because it was seen as 'relief' in the form of a coolingsensation similar to cough drops back in the day?
