Just Because Something Can Be Done...

Doesn't mean it should be:

Jones Soda, the Seattle company that scored a hit during the last two holiday seasons with its turkey-and-gravy-flavored sodas, said it is offering the orange-hued fish-flavored drink this year in a nod to the Pacific Northwest's salmon catch.

"When you smell it, it's got that smoked salmon aroma," said Peter van Stolk, chief executive of Jones Soda.

And it carries this ringing endorsement from the company's chief executive:

...van Stolk said: "I cannot finish a bottle, I just can't."

I must say it is worth supporting a company with such candor...

I want a linguica flavored soda. I will accept bratwurst, if necessary.

Really tips the scales in favor of flavor.

Sounds fishy to me...

You should have seen that bottle of soda! What a monster! It had to be two feet - no, three! Took me an hour to drink it all...

Man, that would be a big bottle to tackle. Shame if you got hooked on it and then they decided to sink 'er.

Sorry sis, I'm not takin' the bait...

I've heard that line before.

I think what the CEO really said is, "This shit tastes like fish!"
