        My experience with passion fruit is that they tend to shove it in every single mixed fruit juice, and what it does, is give those juices just a bitter aftertaste.

            May be, but a citrus fruit juices don’t have that aftertaste, even if they’re mixed with banana, mango or whatever. For me the common denominator is the passionfruit.

              Also, you’re fucking talking about “flavorings” in mixed fruit drink beverages…

              It’s not the same fucking thing kid.

                Sorry I don’t live in " Teh 'Muricah", brat. In rest of the world we have actul whole juices. No flavourings, no added sugar, in many cases no predervatives even. Just the raw juice fruit.

                  Brat??? Lol…

                  Guy, you’re the one who started shit in that conversation… And there’s no way you have juices wherever you are in the world with a significant amount of passion fruit juice in it.

                    Well, we do have. Unfortunately seems to be a common ingredient. Just because they sell it as premium product wherever you are, doesn’t mean it’s actually rare. It is a common denominator for bitterness in my experience, and no matter how much you think it is not, that is what it tastes for me. People taste stuff differently. Sometimes that difference is complete opposite of someone elses taste.

                    The namecalling is a response to your namecalling, as I do not care, nor need to know your age nor gender, as you do not need to know mine, in this discussion of taste. Calling other people “pops” or “kid” is only demeaning, and brings nothikg to the coverstation, and warrant a sililar response.

                    [EDIT]: It has come to my attention, that “may pops” is a slang term, not a fruit. Sorry for taking it as an insult. I know better now. Also, no mattet how mucg you love passionfruit, for me it tastes extremely bitter (I could’ve inserted your mom joke here, but let’s not at this time). Though for you it seems the name fits, as you seem to be very passionate about it.

              The gramps shit is uncalled for.

              Why the fuck does everyone insist on being a fucking asshole these days?

                  Passion fruits are colloquially referred to as “may pops” in places that they grow wild like the US southeast.

                  Maybe you shouldn’t be looking for a fight everywhere.

                    In all fairness, I am not looking for a fight everywhere, I do however have tendency of responding in kind, and in this case, I may have been wrong to do so. Live and learn. But that is the danger of using South American slang in the internet, where not everyone is familiar with South American pet names for fruits that may or may taste extremely bitter for different people.
