Back in the 70s when we arrived to the U.S., there were no Hmong or Laotian stores, just Chinese/Japanese/Korean stores as far as Asian stores go in our area so we drank these soda...

We loved RC more.  My grandpa absolutely loved Mountain Dew in the can even more.

I've not seen them at White American stores even stores as big as Walmart...so yeah, gotta go to Asian stores for those Asian soda...

We like American sodas too and I've always like Pepsi over Coke but if we want this Asian soda, we can only find them at the Asian stores.

I didn't know Coco Rico was an Asian drink.

I've tried it though. I don't like its taste.

Coke is it for the elders as high-class drinks at
weddings. And Hmong girls love Hmong weddings.

I didn't know Coco Rico was an Asian drink.

Technically, it's not but some of us Hmong just call it "Asian soda" because we only saw it at the Asian stores during the 70s.

I like how Hmong label or credit something just
on the surface.

Many beliefs come out of such unsophisticate d thinking.

Hmong say don't eat duck because you'll leave your friends and
families just because ducks fly far distances.

Hmong say don't eat turtles because you'll leave your friends and
families just because turtles are loners.

Hmong say eat ox tendons because that makes you strong,  just
because oxen are strong.

I wonder why Hmong don't eat beavers, because beavers have strong
teeth and the Hmong could have long-lasting teeth eating beavers.
