the difference

high fructose corn syrup vs. sugar

the sugar goes down smooth, the corn syrup tastes like you are drinking a melted gummi bear.

Back in the day moonshine was also called 'Mountain Dew'.

ah.

Dublin Dr. Pepper FTW for the same reason.

I take it the high fructose syrup is cheaper than sugar?

WE HAVE A WINNER! lol

Actually I don't drink sodas either. But I bought one regular pepsi and one throwback and drank like a half of cup full to see if I could tell the difference. They both taste the same to me. But I am not a soda drinker so someone who drinks it regulary might notice a difference.

So people like the "throwback Pepsi" a lot, but eventually the corn syrup lobbyists will get their wish and it will disappear?

if it allows them to win market share from coke then they will probably stick to it.

This has been out for a while now, when I bought some the can did not look all gayly retro, it looked all fancy.

It is pretty damn good, way better than normal Pepsi.

Yeah I looked for them at HEB and Walmart but didn't find them until I went to Target.

They had the Pepsi and the Mountain Dew. I just heard about them within the past week or so.

They both have the same number in nutrients and such, but I think soda made with real sugar cane sugar has a more citrus like taste.

i like it. not a big soda drinker, but i like the fact that it's sugar and not HFCS or those other artificial sweeteners. this has something like 6 total ingredients and i don't need a dictionary to pronounce them. also, no more than 2 consonants in any word. :tu

You must mean syllables, because even sugar has 3 consonants ;)

I drank it by the gallon when I was in my teens and younger. Now it's too sweet for me.

That's what everybody says about sugar cane cola being sweeter, but it's not. Both sodas(high fructose and cane) have the same amount of sweetness. It's just a different kind of sweetness, with sugar cane making it taste more citrus/rum-like, which gives it a more smoother taste according to soda aficionados.
