I've got a feeling we have been duped for years?

Is Um Bongo really the beverage of choice in this part of Africa?

Apparently, it is:
Way down deep in the middle of the Congo,
A hippo took an apricot, a guava and a mango.
He stuck it with the others, and he danced a dainty tango.
The rhino said, "I know, we'll call it Um Bongo"
Um Bongo, Um Bongo, They drink it in the Congo.
The python picked the passion fruit, the marmoset the mandarin.
The parrot painted packets, that the whole caboodle landed in.
So when it comes to sun and fun and goodness in the jungle,
They all prefer the sunny funny one they call Um Bongo!

What about "I'll be your dawg." ?

I believe it is, yes. I also have it good authority that they really do server Ferrero Rocher at ambassador's receptions.

And is Irn Bru really made in Scotland from girders ?
I thought it tasted a bit tinny.
