Loose vodka sinks ships.
Well, I had to think of something appropriate for SubSim.

The leader of the British Conservative MEPs, Timothy Kirkhope, also welcomed the vote, saying "people are free today to drink the vodka they want - the British vodka drinker is saved from protectionists in Poland and Finland".
I bet Timmy hasnt ever even tasted vodka.

It's a shame.

I can't believe this.
Kind of crazy that certain things like Wensleydale and Parma Ham are protected but Vodka isn't. I remember Asda getting into trouble because they bought their Parma ham in Italky and then had it packed in the UK and they couldn't call it Parma ham or something like that.

I suppose that is Smirnoff lobbyism at work...
Real Vodka comes from Russia (or better ex USSR), Poland or Finland anyway. Everything else is just not the real thing

Ahh, but if it says "Vodka" put doesn't contain Vodka then I am being cheated in to buying it. Same goes for absinthe, which is usually a mix of alcoholic oils and not absinthe. If it says "vodka" than it should be vodka and not some hideous mix of oils and alcohol.
