Coming across new and interesting food and beverages is always an exciting part of The World by Road. We are exposed to new smells, tastes and products whether we want to or not. Every now and then, there are some some reminders of home.
If you didn’t know it, Coca Cola is pretty much everywhere and is one of the most recognized logos and brands in the world. Thailand is no exception. Coke can be found anywhere, and although the Thai’s have translated the name into the local language, it is still easy to identify since they maintained the logo’s style. Heinz tomato ketchup is pretty widely available as well and also comes with the locally branded Thai label. This may not be that edifying, but I think the labels look a lot more interesting when they are in a foreign language… especially one as unique and different as Thai.
