Reply to comment by SoUpInYa in TIL that Barq's Root Beer was first created by Edward Barq in Biloxi, Miss, in 1897. In 1934, Barq and a former employee, who moved to New Orleans, agreed to each distribute their own version of the root beer, with the New Orleans version having a red label and the Biloxi version having a blue one. by jdward01

I went to some specialty snack store and they had it a few months ago. So it’s still out there

It’s still in just about every store here in South Louisiana. My wife and I love the Barq’s red cream soda
