I have heard people, mostly Brickroad, go on and on about how awesome Pepsi Throwback is. It’s made with real sugar, and is apparently something to stockpile! However, even though I am quite the Pepsi-drinker, I’ve never really gone and gotten a Pepsi Throwback. However, during my last trip to St. Louis, I stopped to purchase a beverage on the way home, and was shocked to find a bottle of Pepsi Throwback on offer. It wasn’t any more expensive or anything, so I figured I had to jump at this opportunity.<\/p>\n
It was alright?<\/p>\n
Having heard so much about it, I admit I was expecting some sort of miraculous difference. However, the only real taste difference was in the aftertaste. It was different, slightly better, but not significantly so. I was kind of shocked.<\/p>\n
Granted, I’m sure pure sugar is SLIGHTLY better for me than Corn Syrup, and it was a slight improvement. However, I’m certainly not going to go to the ridiculous lengths required to stockpile this stuff. It’s not just everywhere, you know? It does take some effort. I just can’t see that effort being worth it. Good on the people who do, though, I suppose.<\/p>\n
I also have to wonder why Pepsi is doing this. Are they really bringing in more customers this way? Are there people who say “No way am I buying a Pepsi unless it has sugar instead of Corn Syrup!”? I guess there must be, or they wouldn’t have kept making it. Good for them, I guess, but I’ll probably stick with normal Pepsi. Neither of them are really good for me anyway. Heh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
