Sam Hughes Reviews: Sarsae, a sparkling sarsae drink!


Sarsae, sarsae, sarsae, what the hell is sarsae? Not knowing what the hell sarsae is I think was the main reason that this soda was purchased from a local Chinese supermarket in Birmingham, England. The packaging is a definite plus with this soda. A nice big “Sarsae” logo is displayed on the front with a Simpsons-esque font in front of white clouds and a dark brown city landscape. There also appears to be the same thing on the other side, but this time done in Chinese characters. In this case, reading the word “Sarsae” in English meant just about as much as the Chinese characters did. Having things on the can that don’t make sense to me is cool; it’s like what young kids do with tattoos.

Anyway, straight to the taste… This Sarsae tastes exactly like Mug Root Beer! It’s not all that much of a revelation in that regard, but I got pumped because it was the first root beer I’ve in England, ever! So, I guess Sarsae kind of sounds like Sarsaparilla, which tastes like root beer. I really wish this didn’t taste exactly like Mug Root Beer (with better packaging) so I’d have something more interesting to say…either way… 5.5/10

PS: I really wanted to be low and make a SARS joke in this review, but I’m too good for that. Though I bet this soda didn’t sell all that well during the SARS outbreak…

Has there ever been a 10/10 on Sam Hughes Reviews?

10/10 has never occurred...Unfortunately really. A perfect 10 has just never crossed my paths. 8's and 9's? Yeah, there are some good ones out there. I'll know it when I taste a 10. I'll just know it.

2010 might be a bit late to add a comment to something posted in 2006, but here goes ...

The design on the can is not "white clouds and a dark brown city landscape", it is white foam overflowing the rim and dripping down the side of a glass of dark brown liquid i.e. the sarsae a.k.a root beer ;)

Electro Keto After experiencing the initial rapid weight loss, it is too often the case that a lot of dieters who make use of such quick fat reduction products find that they simply start losing hope as their fat loss rate almost always grinds to a snail pace. And while it might be great if all the bodyweight reduction experienced during the initial phase of the diet program was actually from body fat, the fact is that this is not the case.

Trainee Keto This is one of the most common weight loss myths out there. It is illogical to think that your health and weight are going to be in balance if your nutrition consists mainly of twinkies, chips, and donuts. Sure you can burn it off by exercising, but most people whose diet consists of mainly junk food are probably not disciplined enough to stick to a workout routine. I do know a few people who, from the outside, look like they are in good shape, because they are not "fat, but who have high cholesterol.

Absolute Keto If intense for you is working out for an hour a day, but due to life's busy schedule you only have time for 20 minutes a day, then those 20 minutes will go an extremely long way. It might not necessarily be classified as "intense", according to your definition, but those little cardio moments will have positive health altering effects.

Thin Zone Keto What the diet industry doesn't want you to know is that most diet pills, weight loss supplements, and diet programs don't work very well and can even hurt your health more than being fat. If you're interested in being truly healthy, your best option for weight loss is to look at your activity level and the nutritional content of your diet. Work on making fresh vegetables at least half of your diet and take up moderate exercise at about a half hour per day. That's what the U.S. government recommends for optimum health.
