Left behind menu: Michigan beverages: Vernors & cream soda



I too think many people are referring to Vernor's when mentioning cream soda, although people from the area know it is gingerale. A former coworker from Jamaica, the land of ginger beer, pointed out to me that once Vernor's was taken over by Coke, it lost some of the ginger spark.  I also agree that some people may be thinking of the Faygo cream soda.  That too is another winner. (It's a sorry state of affairs when my first posting to this listserv is regarding food.)
