BING AND SODA
We all know that Bing Crosby professed his love of Minute Maid Orange in countless TV spots in the 1960s and 1970s, but Bing also hawked soda in the 1940s. Here is a print ad for RC Cola. I think they still make that soda. It looks like to be during the period that The Road To Utopia was coming out...so around 1946. Even with Bing advertising soda, I'll stick to water...

David, RC Cola is indeed still made and is sold here in the Chicago area. I like it quite a bit and a friend of mine serves it instead of Coke or Pepsi. It's also served at a fast food chain here, Mr. Submarine. I hope it sticks around because it's mighty tasty. And yes, I drink plenty of water as well, but for movie nights, an RC and a pizza is a great combination.
