If it was Canadian they would call it pop not soda.

Also don't call KD mac and cheese.

[–] GrackleBirb@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago

Americans say pop too in the Midwest

That just means no alcohol, pop means it's a fizzy drink.

[–] cx40@piefed.ca 1 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Is this a Montreal specific thing? We use soft drink to refer to things like Coke, Sprite, Crush, etc. I've never heard it used in the context of alcohol-free beverages.

[–] cx40@piefed.ca 1 points 1 day ago

No, I mean the term "soft drink". I've never heard anyone use "pop" here.

Vastly inferior to Knorr Sidekicks which I think are Dutch owned now. Cheese & Chipotle noodles are the best shit ever.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 12 points 4 days ago

Cardboard mostly.

[–] Cethin@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Kraft Dinner is my guess. I really have no idea though.

[–] tquid@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

This. Canadians initialize it, for some reason.

[–] HumanOnEarth@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Why letter many when less do?

[–] wirebeads@lemmy.ca 15 points 4 days ago

Boycott it. American garbage.

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 days ago

Apparently the gates to hell have actually opened.

Because we can’t understand that just because we can, doesn’t mean we should.

[–] adespoton@lemmy.ca 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

KD is owned by Kraft Heinz, a VERY American company. I think this product is some sort of cross border economic warfare.

[–] jmill@lemmy.zip 6 points 4 days ago

This pop seems more likely to be biological warfare.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

wanna bet its just mac n'cheese powder in soda. next it would be poutine soda, tim hortons coffee soda?

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

What the hell is going on up there? First KFCereal with gravy and now this? Y'all okay?

[–] CentipedeFarrier@piefed.social 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I thought the kfc one was in the UK?

[–] thanksforallthefish@literature.cafe 6 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Price on ad is Β£6 so yeah, UK if real. I've not seen it at the supermarket nor seen ads for it.

Edit.

Limited edition gimmick only sold online and for a limited time

[–] c7plumbcrazy@lemmy.wtf 5 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Ooh, think it'll go with ketchup flavored potato chips?

[–] Skyline969@piefed.ca 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Ketchup chips absolutely slap. This… no.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone -1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Why would anyone get Ketchup chips when All Dressed are an option?

In the US, you can finally find All Dressed chips occasionally, and man they're so good.

[–] HumanOnEarth@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago

This is how we're going to tell each side apart when the US invades Canada

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 days ago
[–] Kernal64@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Why? Do... Do you lunatics put ketchup on mac and cheese? 😰

[–] lost_faith@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago

Gotta put some flavour on it

I think it's fun for the ketchup chips to take a little swim in the KD juice

[–] DeadEndLink@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago

Abomination...

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

It'll go great with a bottle of bacon soda. πŸ˜ƒ

[–] veeesix@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago

Ugh, I’ll take 10.

[–] cheat700000007@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Sweet, I'll finally have a use for the juice that collects in the top of ketchup

As long as it's not flavoured like the canned Heinz macaroni and cheese they have in the UK.

I'm just imagining cheese flavoured soda, and I don't think it would be that bad... if you used the right cheese. Sharp cheddar (the cheese flavour I associate with Kraft Dinner, though it's probably a blend) and carbonated water doesn't sound good to me. I'd sip it if I could (bariatric, I can't). Flat, I feel like the point would be lost. Might as well be hot dog water at that point.
