Kelly R.MemberHmmm…. I have an inkling of what this could be due to. I keep going back to the stereotype of black people drinking Kool Aid. But the truth is that, for many poor Black people, Kool Aid is one of the cheapest drinks around, so poor people of all races drink it a lot (they’re not the only ones, but probably account for a large percentage of the profits made by that company). As for the sodas you mentioned, going back to the Kool Aid thing. If you’re used to drinking fruit drinks, when you want a soda, it seems logical that you would be more into fruit flavored sodas.
