Moxie is a soft drink sold out in the East; like many sodas it was
originally a patent medicine, but unlike Coke and Dr. Pepper it tastes
_worse_ than medicine. Sort of like a mix of cola and root beer.
As to Cheetoes and Twinkies (and noting the can of Planter's Reduced Fat
Cheez Curls I've been snacking from), it would seem that the distinctive
American foodtype is the Artificial Creation; stuff that only vaguely
resembles anything from nature. We can then assume that such things are
likely similar to Mostali foodstuffs; nothing that comes from Grower, only
the pure and true foods of Maker.
