Is someone available to beta my next column? I need an opinion on something.

There was a watermelon ice I liked. But I'm pretty sure it was made with actual watermelon concentrate.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Grape! I hate grape. But I love grapes! The two things are really really not related to each other.

The mistake is even pretending these flavors are related to fruit. I prefer to think of them as "red flavored" and "purple flavored." I can't stand the flavor dubbed "wild cherry." When I was a kid, I had to take this cherry-flavored liquid penicillin that was kept in the refrigerator. It was gooey and nasty.

I can look at it, Cash.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Black cherry kool aid makes my head hurt, so I have to vote against it. And there's something very wrong with their pink lemonade.

I don't think I've ever tasted an artificial watermelon that wasn't just wrong, but a violation.

It's the artificial banana that gets to me. So close, but so obviously not. It a rotten trick to pull on a tongue.

Artificial cherry is always nast.

Why am I still logged in to work, and working?

Why am I tempted by the Twitter?

These questions haunt me.

Watermelon's the worst to me, but then I despise the actual fresh fruit as well as the candy. Artificial orange falls far shorter of the fruit's tastiness than most other flavors.

Strawberry and banana are passable to me, and I really like artificial grape and green apple flavors.
