I just tried some of the Pepsi throwback, which is made with real sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup. I didn't like it. It tastes just like Coke now.

So it's the opposite of The New Coke?

Pepsi was cola in the first place.

It's not as bad as New Coke, but if it were discarded in the prison system I wouldn't feel bad.

I thought Coke was made with high fructose corn syrup in the USA, hence the huge demand for the annual release of kosher Coke, which is made with sugar.

Well the coke zero was just terrible when I tasted it although my friend rather enjoys it.


I have never really liked pepsi or coke very much been more a water drinker my whole life.Oh and enormous amounts of tea.

Funny how the removal of high fructose corn syrup and its replacement with an actual quality ingredient that isn't a fattening sickening substitute makes it taste like their competition.

Its as if pepsi is crap.

I hear connecting dots can be dangerous.

Rum is made from sugar. Who cares what pepsi is made of?

Molasses.

And when mixed with water and left in the sun proves the existence of God!

That is not how you make Hobgoblin Beer.

R-Tard.

Generations of drunken caribeans-and me-wipe our butts on your Hobgoblin Beer

Rum for the Rum God! (hiccup I need a nap hiccup)

Rum, killing the Flu, and braincells, since 1664.

Wait, sugar isn't fattening now? Pepsi Throwback and regular Pepsi contain the same amount of calories, and sugar. The only difference is that there is less sodium in regular Pepsi because high fructose corn syrup has a much more pronounced 'sweetness' than table sugar due to the large amount of fructose. Oddly enough, its fairly likely that the extra sodium will make Pepsi Throwback even less thirst quenching than ordinary Pepsi; causing people to drink more of it, and thus gain more weight.

So I take it your all set for swine flu with a basement full of rum?

man, i've always meant to try hobgoblin, but its rather challenging to find in my area.

i'm also dangerously low on rum, hm, might be time to venture out

you see, i have a solution here.

dont drink pepsi in the first place, then youll never know how bas it is!(yes my opinion, and im entitled to it just as you are with your own). but then again pepsi max makes me sick.... so probubly something to do with that.

to be 100% honest if your needing to keep track of carbs and sugar and differing sodium then your taloring yourself for someone else. everone is indevidual, athletes can take in anything past 14k cals a day in training, but if your doing absolutly nothing then for some people 1000 is too much.


OK, rant over. well not much a rant, more an infomercial about my opinion ajoint to some blabbering about stuff...

THE END!!!

Actually the worst thing is dandelion wine. Naaassstttyyy!!!!

I don't know, grappa and dandelion wine may be an even match in a nasty boxing match.

had a soda once that tasted like old Robitussin.

Worst alcoholic beverages in descending (best to worst) order:

5) Light Beer - No joke, the liquor store by my school used to sell a 30 rack branded only as Light Beer

4) Special Export - They should really rebrand this stuff as sexport, its far more illustrative of the flavor.

3) Ron Diaz Rum - It isn't actually rum at all, just vodka packaged as rum. Really bad vodka.

2) MD 20/20 - Robitussin for grown-ups.

1) Night Train Express - Just like MD 20/20 only far, far worse.

Jones Soda Company?

That's the company that made the Thanksgiving Dinner soda collection. Like, dinner roll, turkey and gravy, and I think a couple others. Just sounds disgusting to me.
