Yes, we have it too - "orgeade" [Or'Zad@]. Old-fashioned in the
Netherlands, popular in Suriname, and if you want it you have to go
to a Surinam or Chinese import shop ("toko", which is Indonesian for
"shop" but specifically used for "Asian import shop").

As to strange foods - Valdyans eat roast hedgehogs, baked in clay in
the embers of a fire, and starling pies (especially in years with a
lot of starlings, when they become a pest). Catching hedgehogs and
starlings is children's work.
