    Recently found Pepsi Throwback which is made with sugar instead of corn syrup. Tasted much better so I compared to mexican Coke (also made with sugar) and it tasted much different. I have never been able to taste the difference before.

    This is the Throwback

    I avoid restaurants that serve only Pepsi. I like Dr. Pepper as much as coke, but I can't stand Pepsi.

    I like Pepsi every once in a while. It always makes me think of being wasted, because just about the only time I drink it is when I used to stop at Taco Bell after a long night.

    If it is MEXICAN Coca Cola it's even better. :eek:
    I've never understood this type of trolling... :( If you don't drink soft drinks, why post here? I mean, straight out, yo. Why?

    You don't see me in the D&D as often as in the emmeffin' Hangout... too serious and I would only be trolling unless I was REALLY contributing. Meh, I'm feeding the trolling... I'm guilty, too.

    I really only drink Coke if it has whiskey in it. Pepsi and whiskey are a horrible combination that could only be loved by Satan himself.

    Otherwise, dark colas give me migraines.

    I've been meaning to order some. There is this huge soda place near/in Edmond, OK where my Mom lives that had Dr. Pepper made with pure sugar cane. Delicious stuff. They also had frozen DP. Hopefully it won't be so crowded next time I visit, so I can actually look around there.

    I prefer a rotation. But I suppose I like Coke Zero a little more than the Pepsi products. Haven't tried the Pepsi throwback - would be willing if I saw it sold as an individual can.


    Because it's that important that we know. LOL
    Always happens in music threads or movie threads - there's always someone that feels strongly about the subject in an anti- way and can't NOT put it out there.

    I think every burger/fast food thread has had the healthies give the fatties crap.

    They have it at Sam's. I am not sure if it is an actual upgrade in taste or the bottle and packaging but I like it very much.

    Unfortunately they don't sell it at my Sams. Of course that is just another downside of living in GA.

    if you like pepsi throwback then you have to try mountain dew throwback. i personally think mountain dew tastes awful but the throwback version was actually pretty good. the difference between the hfcs version and the throwback version on mountain dew was alot bigger than the difference between the pepsis

    Scroll up to the pic of old skool Dr. Pepper...

    Look at the Imperial Pure Cane Sugar "Intel Inside" mini-ad on the bottles...

    That's why I don't drink soft drinks......because they don't contain pure sugar, but that high-fructose corn syrup crap instead......it's a cheaper and less tasty sweetener IMO...

    There, are you happy now Swoly????

    And don't eva call me a troll again!! :mad: :confused: :cool: :)
