Thanks go to a reader and blogger named David for this one. He told me that in a visit to his local 7-11 he found Bubble Yum Soda. It comes in Original (Bubble Gum) and Sour Cherry flavors. David tried the Sour Cherry and said it was “surprisingly tasty”. I did some poking around online and found out that this soda is a 7-11 exclusive and that there was a Bubble Yum soda back in the 80s (I don’t remember it).
Anybody tried this? I may have to try and stop by a 7-11 to grab these to give them a try.
Also see: Candy Corn Soda
I’ve just tried the “original” flavor and I personally think it blows the sour cherry out of the water. It tastes just like Bubble Yum.
March 30th, 2006 at 1:30 pmIve tried them both, and they are pretty good. If you like soda with different flavors I would recommend tyring Jolly Rancher Sodas.
June 5th, 2006 at 3:04 pmI FOUND OUT ABOUT THESE OH SO DELICIOUS OPS ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO AND EVERY SINCE THEN OTHER THAN WATER THAT IS ALL I WILL DRINK. I ACTUALLY WENT TO MY NEIGHBORHOOD 7-11 AND BOUGHT THE CASE THAT THEY HAD SO IM ALWAYS STOCKED. NOW I JUST NEED TO FIND A WEBSITE WHERE I CAN ORDER MY OWN CASES. IF ANY OF YOU KNOW PLEASE LET ME IN ON THIS.
RESPONSE: No need to yell, Juanita. :) It’s a 7-11 exclusive so I doubt anyone but 7-11 can order it.

THANKS BRIAN. I JUST DONT KNOW HOW MANY MORE CASES THEY WILL LET ME BUY FROM THEM. I JUST CANT GET ENOUGH OF IT. HAVE YOU TRIED IT AND DID YOU LIKE IT?
RESPONSE: I haven’t tried it. Sounds good though. You know when you write in all CAPS it’s equivalent to yelling right?

where are you at
July 21st, 2006 at 3:40 pmIt seems to me like it would kind of taste like the mixture of Jones Soda Blue Bubblegum and Fufu Berry mixed together.
But I wouldn’t know cause i’ve neither heard of until now, seen, or tried.

March 1st, 2007 at 4:45 pmI am now 20 years old. When i was little my daddy use to take me to the texaco up the street from our house on Saturday mornings on his way to town. He always bought me a bubble gum soda. It’s so weird; I was just telling my boyfriend like a week or two ago about it and then today i was in the gas station close to where i live now and guess what i found? Bubble Gum (yum) soda. I immediately bought it and walked quickly to my car because i couldnt wait to taste it and remember the good feeling it use to give me. Cracked it open. Ahhh. Just as i remembered it.
April 5th, 2007 at 8:21 pmi am gonna be 32 this may on my 13th b day my mom bought a 12 pack of bubble yum pop in the can from a near by party store and i loved it well just the other day i went into a 7-11 to get a slurpee and guess what flavor they had you guessed it bubble yum i got a large and fell in love tasted the same as it did 19 years ago love that stuff michigan
