About time the fizzy drink was rebranded and it's finally happened.
Every time I had a can in the 80's and 90's the song 'totally tropical taste' entered my head. I felt disgusted with myself thinking of the hundreds of thousands of slaves that had been shipped from Africa in the 1700's just to make a drink for white people 250 years later.
Every black person I knew was humiliated including the three in my cricket team who called me a silly cunt, but they were obviously unaware of the hurt it was causing in Brixton and Wolverhampton.
Bunty, Algernon, Marshwarbler and myself can finally unchain ourselves from the Drake statue on Plymouth Hoe now and have a veggie sausage roll and a glass of sparkling water in celebration although Algy has asked. 'is water ok to drink as the slave ships used to sail on it ?'
