The Three Orange Men. by LacyPantSniffer(m): 6:52pm On Nov 12, 2022
In the late 90's,nigerians were shocked when three strange orange men were spotted on the streets of Lagos.

The three men dressed in all black with orange faces would pop up unannounced in public.

This would scare Nigerians, and make many people run in the opposite direction whenever they showed up in public.

And why not? The three orange men looked scary. They looked like very strange, almost alien-like. You know Nigerians, we are not like white people. We are not inquisitive people. Once we see something strange, we peel off.

Shortly after the three orange men phenomenon had reached a fever pitch,it was revealed that it was an advertising gimmick by Pepsi to introduce their new drink Mirinda to the Nigerian market.

After all the fun and intrigues

Mirinda have lost it sweet tastes, it's now less quality in taste

Even 7up is tasteless now

Coke is watery and tasteless too

But teem is still ok because if they try that nonsense low standard, it will get noticed quickly

Fanta is the worst of them all

I think I'll have to make a thread on how the things we used to enjoy in the 90's have lost their taste and quality.

Back then Tomtom was like hot pepper but now it's sweet like candy....What of Milo? You don't even need milk then cos Milo was so thick and the smell was captivating.

I remember Digestive biscuits of the 90's tongue Very delicious and munchful....Not the rubbish they're doing now.....What of Gala back in the 90's? Very delicious with thick and nutritious sausage tongue But now everything they make is rubbish.

You are very right

Milo now is without milk and sugar
So you have to buy that and add to get the original Milo taste of those days
