My father always calls Barq’s root beer “Barf’s.” I can’t say that I disagree with the essential truth of that malapropism, though I confess to washing down a tortilla-stretching Chipotle burrito with a towering cupful from time to time. Not sure what Dad made, if anything, of the 1993 Barqtoos, or the Mars Attacks! marketing that went with them.
