    One of the contestants tonight is from Maine
    and talked about how great Moxie! is, and that
    it was marketed as a cure for [a big list of
    medical problems]

    Art Fleming mentioned that yes, someone had
    sent him a case of it way back, and that it
    was "an acquired taste".

    (Damn, how long has it been since our Maine
    poster [whose name I'm forgetting..] left us?)

    I found some in a specialty-food supermarket a while back. It was -
    well, weird. Not bad, but not a taste I'm particularly interested
    in acquiring.

    My first Moxie was sent to me courtesy of our
    newsgroup colleague thanks to my winning a dead
    pool,as I recall...I have some on hand now that
    I obtained from Cracker Barrel.

    The Cracker Barrel Moxie comes from a bottler
    in Washington State (Orca Beverage,which sells
    12-packs on their website for about ten dollars
    more than Cracker Barrel charges for a case of 24
    with the case discount)...there is another bottler
    in Pennsylvania but they do not distribute outside
    of Pennsylvania despite being an order of magnitude
    closer to me than Orca Beverage!
