Wait--root beer????

Does longevity or quality count? As in MUG root beer--sugarly yuck, A&W -- more depth, less sickeningly sweet, Hires--have not seen in years. 
Seven-Up predates Sprite by decades. 
Diet sodas--why????? (my SIL and BIL stock them, I just don't often drink sodas, I'll occasionally buy ginger ale for at home, but sometimes when shopping I crave a cold root beer which is almost impossible to find in the coolers at, say, Wal-Mart, which is the kind of place where suddenly I REALLY need one. 
I remember my grandmas making some kind of white dressing for leaf lettuce (back when iceberg was what we kids thought was normal, along with French dressing), don't know if it was buttermilk based, if it had mayo, it was not seasoned much that I can remember; the lettuce came from their gardens. This was long before I ever saw a bottle of Hidden Valley.

Pepsi flavor makes me think of institutional bathroom cleaner smells.
