    Waterford - Crystal obviously, the best in the world... Cricket World Cup trophy, etc, etc...

    Although the blaa is some seriously yummy bread and the city gave birth to both the rasher and the cream cracker (no jokes down the back!). We used to make Ray-Bans too.

    Not sure we can compete with Cork (Viagra) or Mayo (Botox) though...

    http://www.independent.ie/national-news/family-soft-drink-set-to-create-a-fizz-nationwide-2559019.html
    A SOFT drink made from a secret recipe that has been enjoyed for over 50 years by a select few is about to be launched nationwide.
    Outside of north Donegal, few people have even heard of McDaid's Football Special, a cola-style frothy drink which is synonymous with Ramelton, the small heritage town where it is made.
    But owner Edward McDaid plans to take Football Special into the soft drinks premiership.
    "It is a strange product in many senses. Whatever it is about it, it seems to hit a memory button and conjure up pleasant memories of childhood, even with people who haven't tasted it before," he explained.
    His father Jim and his uncles chanced on the unique combination of ingredients over 50 years ago and luckily his uncle Eamon -- who had trained in a soft drinks company in Belfast -- recorded the quantities so it could be recreated.
    "My father was a founder member of the Swilly Rovers Football Club in Ramelton and they were trying to come up with a soft drink that could be put into the cup after a win, instead of whiskey.
    "The fruit syrup flavours that are used are all fairly common and shouldn't belong together but they do," he said.
    The base ingredient for the drink is indeed unique to Ramelton in the form of spring water from McDaid's very own underground spring well, less than 100 metres away from the production plant.
    Production
    Sugar, seven different syrups and a heading liquid are added to the water, which is then carbonated and bottled.
    Edward is about to add a marketing and sales person to his six-strong staff and aims to rebrand and triple production at his plant as the product goes nationwide in June. Although business has been hit by the recession, he believes Football Special, and its sister flavours, banana, pineapple and cream soda, will go down well with fizzy drinks fans.
    "If Donegal people for all these years have been having this experience and enjoying it, could we be so different from everywhere else in the country?" Edward asked.
    As for the secret recipe, as with Coca-Cola, its maker's lips are sealed.
    "Only myself and one other person know and we never travel on the same plane. I fly Ryanair and he takes the Swilly Bus," he laughed.

    It's soooooooooo good :D
