That one is even better to those of us who have been to India and seen the giant ads for Limca, a local softdrink.

Its one and only sales pitch is; "Artificially flavoured. Contains no natural fruit juices!"

Tastes like it too.

What does artificially flavored mean anyway? Can you really get something to taste like cherry without using part of a cherry? I don't get this...can someone explain it to me?

No you can't. But you can get some cheap chemicals that do have some sort of flavor, dilute them with water and package the concoction in a container with a picture of a cherry on it, and label it cherry this or that. It is usually quite ghastly.

And yes, there is something wrong with it.

"They" know the chemical composition of all the fruity tastes and smells. "They" can recreate it in the lab using 'stock' chemicals. However, a complex taste list Cherry may include about 2500-10000 different chemicals, and stock chemicals do not come cheap, so the trick is to use the least amount of stock chemicals and still get the taste. That's why the fake peach taste you get in about eveything from tea to peach-slices, is the smallest number of chemicals someone decided still tastes 'peachy', and now everybody is using that to pass as 'Peach'. Over the years, the artificial tastes have gone further and further away from the original taste, and things are tasting faker and faker, because the companies are constantly trying to save a buck and reducing the number of chemicals.

Great answer, but that was really just a new bit I've been working on. It'll come right after my bit about the Ottoman Empire.
