bought a 591mL bottle at WM the other day. Unfortunately I gotta disagree with most of you. i thought it tasted almost like diet pop. Didnt think it was that great.

fast fact..

Much of the soft drink industry in the United States stopped using sugar in the 1980s, in response to a series of price supports and import quotas introduced beginning in 1982 that increased the price of sugar above the global market price. As a result, most U.S. soft drinks, including Dr Pepper, now use high-fructose corn syrup instead of sugar

Couple of my relatives said the same thing. But honestly, I think it tastes very different from Diet. I could do a blink taste test and always detect the diet pop.
I am one of those people that CAN'T drink diet pop of any kind. Within about 2 tablespoons of diet, would make me sick, give me hives and fever--essentially like an allergy.


I say keep this stuff around, i really like it.

My husband found it at walmart in London, ON, and got a case of 12 cans. He thought that it tasted like how Pepsi used to taste. He drank the 12 pack in 2 days. It cost the same as a case of 12 cans of Coke.

lol..i saw couple days ago somebody come out of a store with a 12 can pack when i was waiting in my car.... i looked 2 times, because i never saw a package like this from pepsi before. i didn't think much about....and just thought they changed the package...now i know what it was.... and i look forward to try it. i remember the vanilla coke from my homecountry...(vanilla coke) and loved it. or cherry coke and so on...yummie.

[Mamaelmo]

it taste like Coke to me and I'm a diet coke drinker

[tvwatcher]

I saw it at Zehrs yesterday - we drink diet pepsi (like to cut calories where we can LOL) so I probably won't be buying it....don't want to really like it, then have to go back to the diet stuff LOL

[TudorChick]

hubby likes it.no clearing of the throat,and he says it makes him burp less...lol

[RobynCD]

Hubby and I liked it, but my MIL thought it tasted like diet...

After seeing this thread I just picked one up at Loblaws. First of all it was $2.19 for a 591ml bottle. Is all pop that expensive??? Geez.

It tastes like the 80's. Totally took me back to a picnic in the park when I was 10.

I wouldn't buy it again, but I don't drink a lot of pop, but it was fun to try it out and take a trip down memory lane.

ETA: Reminds me of Cott or RC cola (showing my age now.)
