Reminds me of Radar on M*A*S*H, whose favorite drink was Grape Nehi. The answer concerned the height of his soda bottles; height was something Radar lacked!

The Chero-Cola company added Nehi Cola to its line of sodas in 1924 in order to offer a broader variety of flavors. The soda was a creation of businessman Claud A. Hatcher. The name "Nehi" was to remind customers that it came in "knee-high" tall bottles. It offered orange, grape, root beer, peach, and other flavors of soda. Nehi was instantly successful and outsold Chero-Cola entirely.
