This is wonderful
In Hungary where I live the only sodas that you can find is Coca-Cola and Pepsi products and they make the best fizzy drink of the (I think) world. It’s called Traubisoda it has the best grape taste and made from natural water. It also had an elderberry flavour but its stopped. And now the Fanta has an elderberry flavour and everybody likes it. And the traubi was better. And there are also little companies who make far better sodas than anyone and nobody drink them. Except me and a few people.:D
I just visited this place today. it made my heart warm. please go visit. this man, is honestly a real business man he cares about what he does and it shows.
This is so awsome, I wish we had such a store in the Netherlands
this is sooo amazin
OH GOD! I saw MOXIE!!
I have a lot of respect and admiration for business men such as John. They really draw attention to small businesses and products that don’t get the attention they deserve.
Yessss We Can!!!!!!

@iStar125 My Grandpa always used to have this supermarket brand grape soda I loved as a kid. It wasn’t good soda, but it was the only grape I had had back then.
@signguyMA Check the website, it has prices on it.
Grape soda is grape flavored liquid crack to me.
If only everyone could find something to be half as passionate about, the world would work a lot better.
I have to visit this place. It’s not too far from my house.
I noticed there isn’t any prices. Does everything cost the same or something?
i kno, ill try, i REALLY want that double cola!!
if you’ve got a little extra money and a credit card, you most certainly can.

@kind2311 Yay! I wanna try that so bad….I wish I lived in Cali just for this store. No other reason. I tried the 10 cal root beer he recommended in this video….amazing.
i visited Galco’s last saturday(feb 20). I spent $119 and had a great conversation with John. He informed me that the Romanian guy who makes the floral sodas contacted him and will be making a run of the Pineapple Cream soda he wanted! Hooray for Galco’s!
hell yeah good to hear. i’d eat there 5 nights a week if you did.
@Vnix I had some ginger beer in London brewed like that, really good, but quite strong.
my new idol
I want to go there and try every single soda….
Day after day I would come in and buy whichever one I hadn’t tried.
