Tribal People Try Fanta For The First Time
About this video
A first taste of soda in the village. This Tribal People Try episode does what the channel always does: put something new in front of people who cook every meal from scratch and let them talk.
What is soda?
Soft drinks: Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Dr Pepper, Fanta, Sprite, and the energy drinks — Red Bull, Monster, Prime. Coke and Pepsi are everywhere in Pakistan; the American flavours like root beer and Dr Pepper are not.
What to watch for
Fizz is familiar; medicinal flavours are not. Root beer and Dr Pepper are compared to cough syrup almost without fail. Energy drinks are tasted with suspicion and the caffeine warning on the can gets read aloud.
The comparison they always make
Cola with a meal is normal in Pakistan. Traditional drinks are lassi, Rooh Afza in summer and lemon shikanjvi, all of which get invoked when a fizzy drink disappoints.
