Went to a drink store (Getränke Markt) in Aachen, Germany today. To my surprise I saw that all local soda brands were almost sold out(Fritz, Afri, Sinalco) and Coca Cola was almost not touched. I was very pleasantly impressed by this. Seems like more people are joining with the small consumer choices to buy from EU rather than US. Do more people notice this elsewhere?

    I noticed that the far superior Paulaner Spezi is being bought way more. Same with Fritz. Coca Cola is almost untouched. This shift happened way faster than I expected. Good ❤️

      Was just coming in to say that I have so many good memories of Aachen itself from spending multiple nonconsecutive months there on a work project.

      It’s a place I associate with deepening my interest in the German language, as well as deepening my love for doner, but is also where I discovered Fritz.

      I miss Germany.
