    Simply put, a dirty soda is your typical fountain soda, but with added ingredients such as heavy creams, flavored syrups, candy pieces or fruit juices.

    Flavoured syrup is just what fountain soda is made of, so that seems fine. Fruit juice seems fine.

    But who the fuck wants heavy cream or candy pieces in a soda? Seriously?

      This is what happens when you have a whole society of judgemental teetotalers whose only outlet is mindless treat consumption.

      At least straight edge hard-core people have the community and anti-conformity part down.

      Well, you see, they have a complicated relationship with beverages over there in Mormondia. Like all religions, Humans find a way to get little God Loopholes, performing unheard-of rules lawyering antics, that eventually arrive at a conclusion of "Cola / Soda is fine with God". I can't speak to the candy pieces, that just has to be some kind of capitalist "innovation" on their part. I'm pretty sure the heavy cream is supposed to provide them some kind of replacement for the "coffee" aesthetic / sensory experience, that is if coffee was carbonated...

      Cream in soda actually slaps. Cream goes well with all kinds of sweet things and having it in sugary drinks is common, plus a lot of sodas already have cream flavored varieties. Can't vouch for the candy though
