Product doesn't appear to be notable; Google Web and News searches produced no reliable sources. The only references offered are Blogspot and Twitter pages. Prod contested. Baffle gab1978 (talk) 18:05, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

- Speedy delete lame joke page: "In honor of our French brethren, Freedom Soda tastes best when won from the toils of others (ie, borrowed ingredients)." Ha ha. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 19:17, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
- Delete and I would not object to a speedy delete per Starblind. The entire beverage is made up, the "background" provided is apparently an attempt to be funny. Sjakkalle (Check!) 08:06, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
- Keep Lame jokes or not, this is real and something we enjoy daily. Call it original research or merge into Italian soda (which afaik has not been contested), but the phenom will remain. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jaustindavid (talk • contribs) 00:07, 23 October 2010 (UTC) — Jaustindavid (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- Reply - Jaustindavid, i asked you to provide references and you still haven't shown how this is notable; therefore we have to assume it isn't. Baffle gab1978 (talk) 23:58, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- Speedy delete lame joke page.--Talktome(Intelati) 00:08, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- Speedy delete, 7 of the 9 "references" are to other wikipedia page, which I'm 101 % positive dont mention Freedom Soda, the rremaining 2 are to twitter and a blog, so is totally unreliably sourced. Hoax or joke or whatever, doesn't belong here, and on top of all that, its not funny either. Epic fail on all counts, delete with extreme prejudice. Heiro 19:45, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- Delete as WP:MADEUP. A search for reliable sources yields only the Wikipedia article and mirrors. Joke or not, it is not notable. • Gene93k (talk) 00:48, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
