Like I said, the Fuddruckers I worked at in PTC did not have unsweet tea available in the lobby area of the restaurant or on the menu board. Unless a customer PERSONALLY asked for a special batch of unsweet tea to be prepared especially for them, they would only have sweet available. Fuddruckers in other areas offer unsweet tea on the menu and in the lobby, it depends on the location. In NOVA, they may have a few places that serve sweet tea, but unsweet is more common.

Just for fun, here is a map someone made of the Sweet Tea line in VA:

There isn't even a Fuddrucker's in Peachtree City...are we being dishonest here? I believe you're making things up to try and support your earlier false statements.

There are too many people who want unsweetened tea for a restaurant not to keep it available. Please stop making these things up!

The map doesn't prove anything...those places that serve sweet tea ALSO serve unsweet tea. Big deal...

Ya think? I remember my days in McLean, VA...and not with fondness. NOVA is about as Southern as a salted cod.

That line is not very accurate. Outside of the immediate DC area, Sweet Tea is the beverage of choice in most all of Virginia.

Richmond area of course serves sweet tea big time. At all the local stores.

But the nicer thing about Virginia is, you get a choice of unsweet or sweet tea. In the Deeper South, they just serve it sweet regardless. Not good if yer diabetic.

As for sweet tea, in NOVA they may have a few places with sweet tea, but it is not like metro Atlanta where some restaurants you can't even FIND unsweet! Oh, and "Gone with the Winds" Tara was based off of Jonesboro GA in metro Atlanta and the writer lived in Fayetteville.
Thats only recently. I grew up in Loudoun, and there is mostly Baptists, Methodists, Episcopalian, and Assembly of God

Ironically I went to a Catholic School in NOVA- and only 1 kid was Catholic. The rest of us were Protestants.

You obviously dont know much about NOVA.

Atlanta to me felt as Southern as Chicago. Only maybe a little warmer.

I grew up in NOVA but my family is mostly from Richmond. Richmond feels 10x more Southern than Atlanta.

Oh, I know plenty about that hellhole. I lived there for five loooong years. My sister, brother-in-law, niece and nephew lived there for nine...and we are all in agreement on that subject.
How did Richmond enter into this conversation? Oh, I see...it's you.
