Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine pepsi throwback - the greatest drink in the universe?

yes. who needs more corn juice in their candy water when you can have delicious PURE* sugar!! yum yumy yum yum yum

really its awesome.


*pure beet sugar.

It's not bad.

But Jarritos is better, especially the Lime flavor.

I just had one today. I search for them everywhere I go. YUM YUM YUM

Pepsi rules!
nuff said!

i must add - in a can much better than in a plastic bottle. i dont know if they have them in glass bottles tho.

I wish they had them in 2 liter format...

they do!

unless you mean 2 liter cans or 2 liter glass bottles. now that would be awesome.

No I meant the plastic ones, they only sell the small plastic bottles here

If you are talking a 2 litre of Pepsi in a plastic bottle, they are plentiful in canada.

2 Liter of Pepsi Throwback

You dirty rotten ba... Diabetic addicted to pepsi here....HELLLLLLLOOOOOOOOO!

oooh, sorree, sorree...

who else remember the Pepsi Clear? (or Pepsi Crystal)?

I miss the Diet Mountain Dew Berry flavor!! grrrr....grrr..

i have missed 7up gold. i wish i could really remember what it tasted like.

I live in a Jewish neighborhood and recently asked the grocery store clerk why some of the 2 liter Cokes had a red screw top while others had a yellow screw top.
She explained that the yellow screw-topped bottles are kosher & are made with sugar instead of high-fructose corn syrup.
I bought a bottle of each and *GASP!* I actually tasted the difference!!

I'm sorry. I'm a devoted drinker of Coke Zero. I'd rather artificial sweetener than HFCS any day!

this is valuable information. thank you.

I wish my town had one of those kosher grocery stores, since it sounds like you can still get REAL Coke there.

I'll say Pepsi Throwback is the second-greatest soda pop in the universe.

The greatest soda pop is Dr Pepper with real sugar. Dr P itself is marketing the original formula as "Heritage Dr Pepper", and a bottler in Texas still insists on using real sugar:

However, my preferred beverage of all is iced Earl Grey tea, sweetened with sucralose, stevia, and saccharin. I read that mixing artificial sweeteners tends to neutralize their off-tastes, and I find it works for me.

OOPS! While stevia is non-nutritive (no calories), it's NOT artificial, but comes from a plant.

They had Mexican Coca-Cola at the party I went to yesterday. Yep. Real sugar.

If you don't have a Kosher grocer, try your local Bodega or home-grown taco joint, KC.

I'll drink it when I have to, but I prefer drinks with Splenda to the ones with Nutrasweet. No nasty aftertaste.

Hansen\'s makes some of the best diet sodas I've ever had. Especially their root beer, ginger ale, and orange. It's weird that their own website doesn't show that they've recently redesigned their logo, though...

I think the HFCS versus Sucrose taste debate is overblown. The real reason the throwbacks taste better is that the food industry has been reformulating the rest of product around the sweetener to make use of cheaper ingredients.

A 2010 Big Mac is not a 1970 Big Mac. I challenge the Golden Arches to introduce a "Throwback Big Mac" to show us how artificial their food has become.

[imagines an LMB story arc in which warring factions try and steal the Coke formula to see if it's been altered or not]

Thanks. Brookshire's sells Mexican Coca-Cola as well as the USA variety. I might buy a bottle next time.

All this excitement for PEPSI THROWBACK inspired me to buy 3 20-ounce bottles right now.

One of which I am about to drink.

[pout] I don't know any place around here that sells it.
