Default After Rollo's reacton to did he have any Ripple, I had to do some research

And found out he had a look of disgust when asked did he have any Ripple because it was known as a cheap drink for that was mainly drunken by Bums on the street and Alcoholics

LOL


I never took the time out to find out what Ripple was really all about until I saw Rollo's look of Disgust.

I could have told you that. It was a ghetto wine that was sold in the 'hood. That's why many whites on the show didn't know what ripple was.

We have our own ghetto drinks here, like Wild Irish Rose, and Rikoloff (My dad's favorite drink,lol) that doesn't market in the burbs.

A cheap brand of liquor that in the inner-city markets. It suppose to be strong, though I have never tried it. It usually caters to older folks.
