I was thinking the same thing. I don't think "Check" drinks exist

A recent study from Cornell University states that Check beverages are better than named brand soft drinks because they are only 8 cents a can and they take your mind back to the days of when you played little league baseball and your coach ended up buying drinks for the whole team.

Thee study also went on to say Chek drinks can also cause you immense sadness by causing you to remember that fly ball you dropped in the outfield.

It's because you're so poor that your brain tricks you into thinking it tastes better. To an OT baller off brand drinks taste like sewage

RC Cola makes the store brands of soda. They have a pretty interesting business model.

This stuff may be the best soda I've ever had. I'm not normally a soda drinker and I could just sip these all day.

What about artificial sugar water with carbonation?

They don't have that in Check drinks. Your thinking of RC or Big Shot.

Chek drinks are not that great from what I remember (they don't have Winn Dixies in AZ). My dad bought them all the time when I was a kid cause we were poor. I will say iirc.....the cream soda one was the best one they had though.

Now Shasta........that's a different story(they still make those?).
